Of the many things that happened over the weekend, perhaps the most significant was the announcement from Warren Buffett that he’s now investing in gold and gold-related assets. They say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks, and this is a huge shift in investment principals for the Oracle of Omaha. Long contending that gold is not a worthwhile asset to invest in, Warren is now very abruptly seeing the appeal. Why? … You know why. This is about money printing. The printer is working overtime, and this is

Which would you prefer, a large pizza split into eight slices, or a large pizza split into 12 slices? A normal, rational person might suggest that it really doesn’t make much of a difference, as it’s really the same amount of pizza. This poor Australian girl, however, will probably never live down the time her “friend” Brad filmed her saying that she’d prefer eight slices, because she couldn’t possibly eat 12 slices of Pizza. Well, today Jen can finally point out that the eternity of new-wave momentum traders are giving

Can’t we all just get along? Over the last few days, tribalism in the crypto community has reached a new peak. Luckily, there are still many in our growing industry with a level head. The calls for an audit of the Ethereum blockchain have been growing, particularly from the bitcoin maximalists, who have long felt that bitcoin needs no counterparts in the crypto realm, nor should there be any competition for the throne. The issue arose after some posted a simple question, asking how many ETH there are in the

It’s no secret that women are underrepresented in the technology and financial industries. In the U.S, women only hold a quarter of computing-related jobs. Some sectors, like software engineering, fare even worse, with female representation as low as 15%. And now along comes blockchain, a technology that promises a global revolution through decentralization. Blockchain has already begun to transform many industries, from finance and supply chain management to healthcare and governance.  However, it has yet to significantly change the demographics of the tech industry. According to a study conducted by

The idea of the tooth fairy never made much sense to me. I don’t like the idea of presenting fiction as fact, especially to my children. My wife, on the other hand, is quite into it. For one thing, the economics are all messed up. Supposing there’s some kind of business or even a nonprofit, how does the Tooth Organization sustain the kind of overhead involved when every transaction results in a loss? The other thing is the timing, which almost never adds up. While you might be able to

Even though we said in yesterday’s update that we weren’t going to cover the Microsoft TikTok talks, it seems things have now escalated to the point where it seems difficult to ignore, especially in light of unprecedented intervention from the president. Shortly after we hit the send button, President Donald Trump stated that TikTok now has a deadline of September 15 to sell off all its U.S. operations to an American company, be it Microsoft, Apple, or anyone else. In addition, the president has stated that the U.S. Department of

Hope you had an excellent weekend. It’s become a bit of a rarity lately while bitcoin was sitting flat, but now that crypto is in a bull market again, I suppose it makes sense to see some volatility over the weekend. Hope it’s not surprising to anyone. Stocks are moving up, precious metals are marching higher, and capital is flowing toward new age financial technology in a way that we’ve never really seen before. There’s a lot more liquidity these days, and it has been floating into all sorts of
