Sharing news from @PropelVC on our Fund V announced today ⚡️ Huge opportunity where money meets technology, and we are partnering with entrepreneurs at the earliest stages 🤝 Thankful to get to work with entrepreneurs every day with my long time partner @JayReinemann 🫡
Today we are proud to announce the close of Propel's $100M Fund V, expanding our global investments in founders who are building tomorrow's economy.
The media so badly wants @Giannis_An34 to move on. Not fair to cite odds of winning the East. He needs a few pieces, but he is good enough to win a championship any year if in the playoffs.
"My concern for [the Bucks'] forthcoming pitch to Giannis to wanna be there long term is they didn't move the needle enough." @WindhorstESPN thinks the Myles Turner trade might not be enough to keep Giannis in Milwaukee 👀
Yeah, that’s cool
Love this ad. Will be playing during NBA games shortly to bring more people onchain. Let's update the financial system.
Thanks @virtuallylaw for having me on the Form & Structure podcast (@Surus_io). I highlighted how AI and crypto are rebuilding everything from fintech 1.0 and 2.0, and how stablecoin orchestration is a web 2.5 product. For anyone building in the new economy at the earliest…

Painful week for merchants, @anthonysardain at @cavelahq is here to help for merchants that need to bounce around the globe to source inventory. Some coming out better.
On the plus side: Even as tariffs go up, our users are still unaffected. This brand is paying less now with tariffs than they were 6 months ago, without tariffs.
I remember when there were 2-3 startups working around accounting. Now it feels like we learn about 2-3 new companies a day focused on accounting, all leveraging AI.
The US taxpayer should not be exit liquidity for cryptocurrencies that are decentralized in name only.

California is the 5th largest economy in the world, but growing slower than Florida/Texas. Imagine its potential with effective governance. Time to tackle crime, education, homelessness, and reduce bureaucracy head-on.
You do not hate California's government enough: - CA has the highest poverty rate at 13.2% of any state despite being the 4th largest economy in the world - This poverty, despite the state having an annual budget of ~$297 billion- the most significant state budget in the US -…

Lots of fintech acquisition activity in recent weeks with Brigit (~$460M) and MoneyLion (~$1B) being acquired - after a COLD year. In 2025, we may get a Chime IPO. If Chime has a public currency to acquire other fintechs the size of Brigit and MoneyLion, it could be great for the…
Scoop! Chime has now submitted its IPO filing with the SEC, taking another big step on its go public journey. bloomberg.com/news/articles/… @PaigeSmithNews
