Mintbvivid does not chase news cycles or publish daily for the sake of publishing. Topics are chosen when three conditions align: there is credible, publicly available data to anchor the piece; the subject directly affects a meaningful number of Kenyan households or investors; and the existing coverage leaves a real plain-English gap. That filter keeps the content library tight and usable rather than bloated with repetitive takes. If you have a topic you'd like covered — a product you don't understand, a market event that needs unpacking — use the contact page and we read every message.
