Here’s why VCs are funding this 👇🏻 There’s been so much wealth creation in tech over last decade that BILLIONS are nothing to them. So FOMO of the next rocketship drives most of their investment decisions… Missing the next Anthropic costs more to them

Instinct is currently raising @ $30b. $100M → $500M → $2.5B → $10B → ~$30B in sub 1y. If you're still not inside the private market this should be a good signal to pivot aggressively. Wealth creation is going to be heavily skewed toward private investors over the coming decade.

One of the strangest acquisitions of all time has to be Square acquiring Tidal (Jay-Z’s music-streaming service)… In 2015, Jay-Z bought it for $56M. Then in 2021, he flipped it to Square for $297M.
