Premier David Burt

So this happened today. My daughter Nia had an assignment from the amazing Northlands Primary School. She had to write a blues song & sing it. Have a listen. I will call it Pandemic Blues 🎶. Thank God for phones & video so I can share these moments with her when I get home. -DB

I welcomed Brian Armstrong, Co-Founder and CEO of Coinbase, to Bermuda as we continue advancing our vision of becoming the world's first fully onchain national economy.

At City Hall in Hamilton, Mr. Armstrong and members of the Coinbase executive team met local business owners who now accept USDC payments. The group also participated in a live USDC payment demonstration at Ashley's Lemonade.

Later, I met with Mr Armstrong and the Coinbase team at the Cabinet Office to discuss Bermuda's progress in digital finance and the opportunities ahead as we continue to build an on-chain economy that delivers practical benefits for Bermudians.

The visit follows our announcement at the World Economic Forum in Davos in January 2026 of Bermuda's plan to become the world's first fully onchain national economy, with Coinbase serving as a key partner in that effort.

I had the opportunity to celebrate Mrs. Gwendolyn T. Doars' 100th birthday with her family and friends.

I recognized this special occasion and offered congratulations on behalf of the Government of Bermuda.

Happy 100th Birthday, Mrs. Doars.

Last week I joined leaders from across the Commonwealth in Antigua and Barbuda for the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM).

As part of CHOGM, I participated in the Commonwealth Business Forum, including discussions on Commonwealth RE: Mutualizing Disaster Risk, Investing in Climate-Vulnerable Markets, and Tourism for a Changing World.

I also met with stakeholders during the week to discuss issues of importance to Bermuda and other island jurisdictions.

Beyond the meetings and discussions, it was also great to see Bermuda represented in the CHOGM T10 Under-23 Exhibition Match by Isaiah O'Brien, Keegan Jones, Sa-Qui Robinson and Zeri Tomlinson.

Congratulations to my friend and brother, Prime Minister Dickon Mitchell, and the NDC on tonight’s landslide victory!

It was an honour to stand with you and your party at your anniversary rally earlier this year. Tonight, your people have given you an overwhelming mandate to keep delivering.

Wishing you and your Government every success as you continue improving lives across Grenada, Carriacou and Petite Martinique, and making an impact throughout our region and around the world.

Forward ever, my brother! ✊🏾
