🚨 URGENT: STOP THE EUTHANIZATION OF HACHI

A Texas judge in Fort Bend County ordered a friendly German Shepherd with no history of aggression to be euthanized following a minor scratch incident involving a neighbor who has a documented history of provoking the dog. No bite. No medical treatment sought. No independent evaluation.

✍️ Sign the petition in the comments. Demand a stay. Share his story. PLEASE!

They are threatening to euthanize Hachi today, despite knowing the owner is actively in the process of securing an attorney to save his life. @FortBendCounty

*Confirming the shelter now

💡Dalio’s point about #Bitcoin’s imputed value due to fiat depreciation fits right into this narrative. As we face high debt levels and unconventional monetary policies, the competition of monies, including Bitcoin, is gaining relevance as people seek alternatives in an increasingly uncertain economic landscape.

💡Ray Dalio outlines five big trends shaping the global economy📉

•High Debt Levels and Monetary Policy: Elevated debt and unconventional monetary policies are creating financial market bubbles and currency risks.

•Internal Conflicts and Inequality: Rising inequality and political polarization are fueling societal unrest and economic instability.

•Geopolitical Tensions and Globalization Shifts: Increasing tensions and a move away from globalization are disrupting trade and investment patterns, leading to greater economic uncertainty.

•The Rise and Fall of Empires: A shift in global power dynamics, particularly between the U.S. and China, influencing global stability and economic growth.

•Changes in the Natural World: Climate change and environmental degradation are accelerating, leading to more extreme weather events and threatening global ecosystems, economies, and vulnerable populations.

•Technological Innovation and Disruption: Rapid advancements in AI and automation are transforming industries but also creating challenges like job displacement.

When one trend intensifies, it often triggers or worsens the others, creating a cycle of risks that can be difficult to break without coordinated, comprehensive action. This interconnectedness underscores the importance of a holistic approach to managing global risks, where addressing one challenge requires considering the broader implications across the entire system.

🚨 The Future is Not Fixed! 🌍 As geopolitical tensions and climate crises collide, the 2024 Global Risks Report urges leaders to unite, rebuild trust, and turn global challenges into opportunities for a resilient world.

Is #Bitcoin the future of money ? 🧐Michael Saylor argues it could replace fiat currencies, thanks to:

✅ Fixed supply of 21M coins, protecting against inflation.
✅ Decentralization, reducing reliance on central banks and government control.
✅ “Digital gold” status, hedging against economic instability.
✅ Fast, low-cost cross-border payments for financial inclusion.

Yet, critics say Bitcoin lacks the flexibility for economic management and social stability. 🤔

Could Bitcoin’s decentralized model and fixed supply solve issues like inflation, boom-bust cycles, and inequality? Or will we need a hybrid system with fiat? 🌍💸

🚨💸Think crypto is the bad guy? Look at the numbers:

🔍 $3.2T in crime linked to fiat — money laundering, corruption, tax evasion.
🔍 Crypto crime? Just $20.1B , <1% of fiat crime!

With every crypto transaction recorded on a public ledger, it’s more traceable than fiat. 🕵️‍♂️

Time for a balanced view! Don’t let headlines shape the narrative.

Despite the pickup in venture in Q2 2024 and increased funding to AI, the overall market outlook has not shifted. Concerns about revenue growth, a challenging environment for startups raising funding, a higher bar at each stage and a slower exit environment continue to impact venture capital allocation.

[boringuser @boringuserhey]

💡#AI startup funding surged to $24 billion from April to June , more than doubles in Q2, Crunchbase data shows, despite investor concerns about revenue and high valuations.💸

Top deals included Elon Musk's xAI raising $6 billion and AI infrastructure provider CoreWeave's raising $1.1 billion in its latest funding round. Also on the list, automated driving company Wayve and data preparation company Scale AI.

#Healthcare and #biotech was the second-largest sector, raising $17 billion. Hardware companies — in large part due to AI infrastructure and semiconductor fundings — raised $11 billion. Financial services companies, typically in the top two sectors in the peak market of 2021, raised $9.8 billion.

Global funding declined 5% to $147 billion in the first half of the year and was flat compared to the second half of 2023, according to Crunchbase.

A tight monetary policy in the U.S. has contributed to a slow revival in initial public offerings, hampering what is among the biggest sources of returns for institutional private market investors, who typically invest in startups and sell shares during IPOs.

Notable M&A

Notable large deals on the software M&A front this past quarter include security company CyberArk’s bid for identity management company Venafifor $1.5 billion. Intelligence platform AlphaSense has plans to acquire competitor Tegus for $930 million. And Run:AI, a company that improves GPU performance, is to be acquired by Nvidia for $700 million.

🇦🇪The UAE Takes the Top Spot

The United Arab Emirates boasts the highest rates of crypto ownership globally. The country’s government is considered to be very crypto friendly, as described in Henley & Partners’ #Crypto Wealth Report 2023:

In the UAE, the Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA-ADGM) was the first to provide rules and regulations regarding cryptocurrency purchasing and selling. The Emirates are generally very open to new technologies and have proposed zero taxes for crypto owners and businesses.

The UAE’s residence by investment initiative aims to boost the investment environment and foster business growth by attracting talent, professionals, and investors by granting long-term residence. There are numerous categories of beneficiaries for the UAE’’s Golden Residence visa, including real estate investors, who can obtain a 10-year renewable residence visa by purchasing a property, or one or more off-plan properties from approved local real estate companies, worth a minimum of AED 2 million.
