BTC futures over the past week show a clear divergence by trading session. EU hours delivered the most consistent gains, building steadily through the week and maintaining positive momentum. US sessions added incremental upside but largely ranged, contributing less to the overall move. The real shift came late in the week during APAC hours, where returns flipped sharply from flat to strongly positive, driving a significant portion of the weekly performance.

🚨 BREAKING NEWS 🚨
A major $PENGU storm system is developing. Forecasters report rapid strengthening and growing coverage.
More updates as this story develops...
This is the most neutral summary I’ve seen of the Minnesota murder by ICE. It has ALL angles, it syncs them together, and shows the lead up and aftermath… if you watch this all and still think those shots were justified - you just might be a psychopath.
Happy MLK Day. If he were alive today, he would support everything I support and he would be against what I'm against. At least that's what I'm getting from people's posts today.
I've said this a couple of times already but I'm not a fan of the whole ownership coins narrative and how founder-unfriendly the current frameworks are.
I think we are drifting towards a place where "OWNERSHIP or SCAM" will be the consensus mindset crypto-founders will be exposed to. "If you're not choosing an ownership framework you're scamming investors". This is a productive stance to eventually take, but the current ownership structures just are so founder-unfriendly, that most talented founders will just chose against tokenising ever because they don't want to give up control or fundraising flexibility in the future.
Right now as a crypto founder you stand in front of a heavy decision:
(01) Lose control over your startup post-tokenisation
(02) Load your companies books with senior debt
(03) Do a Rainbow or ERC-S style structure yourself
I've had multiple conversations with founders in the last months which we rejected for Street, not because they are "bad startups", but just because our clients are usually Web2 startups and we can't onboard them through Street and every rejection felt especially awful knowing the structure we provide is the only productive structure out there which is not a) removing all control or b) killing their future fundraising flexibility.
I applaud @RainbowFND & @mikedemarais for doing essentially a ERC-S style structure without Street & I think more crypto projects should take a look at what Rainbow is doing and replicate it, if we reject them.
One VC asked me: What stops people from doing ERC-S themselves without involving Street.
My answer was: Nothing, actually we open sourced ERC-S with all the legal files to encourage that to happen.
When Y Combinator invented the YC SAFE, they didn't gatekeep it only for themselves, that would be incredibly unproductive.
ERC-S isn't a moat we have, neither should we gate keep it.
Obviously going through us is legally more secure because we take on a looot of legal risk for you via indemnification agreement, we pay for the legal bills, we structure it for you, we stand with our brand up for you, we connect you to VCs, angels, other projects building on Street & guide and advice you daily. We give you customized software solutions & intro you to anyone you need and invite you to all the IRL workshops we do.
But none of these mean it's not possible to do a Rainbow-like structure without us. (Just don't call it ERC-S).
To make this possible for crypto-native founders we are releasing a side-letter next week which allows you to raise through equity + token warrants while still having the optionality to go for a Rainbow like structure later.
Please don't kill your business just to call yourself an ownership coin.

.@benchmark co-lead the initial round for Cerebras 10 years ago. Over the following 5 years, the team amazed, delivering the technological marvel of a wafer-scale chip, the system to heat and cool it, and more recently the software layer that allows giant fleets of Cerebras systems to work together for very large MoE models.
But even more impressive, is they just never fucking quit, despite kissing death like 3 times, getting made fun of for unusual early customers, and getting passed over by virtually every respected semi investor (who have all converted now).
The team knew, IF they could stay alive, it was just a matter of time…. In tech, speed ultimately wins, and nothing is close to as fast as Cerebras.
