Bitcoin Finally Broke the $70,000 Wall

Bitcoin finally punched through $70,000. But the most interesting part of the move is not the number itself or even the size of the rally. The important part is what $70,000 had become.

Reddit Joins the S&P 500: Memes Meet Wall Street

In early 2021, Reddit looked like one of the last places Wall Street would ever want to take seriously.

Nvidia Wants Wall Street to Finance the AI Multiverse

AI has spent the past few years looking like a software revolution powered by unusually expensive chips. That description is starting to feel obsolete. The next phase looks more like SimCity with investment bankers.
