Such clickbait
1. The bet, post acquiring Oculus in 2014, was to own the next computing device. That still remains
2. Meta has spent $80bn across VR&AR to date
3. Meta is shutting down Horizon Worlds only
4. They are continuing to invest at about the same rate across VR&AR

Very true.
Don’t let your narrative be set by others.
Jordan Kutzer@JordanKutzer
VR’s narrative is being set by people who don’t build in VR, don’t spend time in VR, and don’t see the small teams quietly winning. VR’s best news happens in huge Discord servers, not on social or news articles. Jump into the culture for the good news.

Michael Burry Stock Tracker ♟@burrytracker
Sam Bankman-Fried had the best venture portfolio in history What SBF bought vs. what it's worth today: • Anthropic: $500M → $30.4B (+5,980%) • Robinhood: ~$546M → $5B (+816%) • Solana: 60M SOL at ~$8 → $5.3B at $89 (+1,012%) If he did nothing illegal, he'd be worth $40 billion today Instead he's now he's inmate #37244-510

@AdamDraper @coinbase i use coinbase as my bank and live off of staking bitcoin, eth etc. I REALLY like the coinbase one card.

Just saw someone in the wild open the @coinbase app to use USDC at Starbucks.
There was a separate conversion he had to do, but it looked like he was using Coinbase like a bank account.
I didn’t get a chance to ask him what the flow was.
Very exciting stuff.

Good time to be a founder.

I'm turning 40 on Thursday. So naturally I'm celebrating all month.
Something I realized is that 40 gives you the opportunity to reflect, while also giving you a reason to celebrate.
