Countries that win put builders in charge. Amazingly proud of CTA leader @Ximenatech . From DC startup founder to Chile’s new Minister of Science, Technology & Innovation. Huge moment for Chile—and the global tech ecosystem 🇨🇱🚀
Taya is jewelry first. Surveillance never. We just raised $5M led by @MaCVentureCap, @fcubedvc, a16z @speedrun. Directional mics and voice isolation capture just you. Single-player mode. Privacy isn't a feature, it's an architectural decision. TechCrunch exclusive in the comments! 👇
Today we’re announcing that @NitraFinance has raised a combined $187 million in financing as we build the AI-native operating system for healthcare practices. We're also announcing that Dr. Richard Park, founder of CityMD and healthcare legend, will be joining Nitra’s Board.
Blue cities are out of control, promising more, spending more, delivering less and pushing off fiscal problems to some future day. Democrats in city halls should stop governing as if the goal is to announce new entitlements, and instead make government work. My take:
We are pleased to announce that Votre, America’s first fully onchain investment bank has raised a $3.75 million seed round. The round was led by @a16zcrypto CSX, with additional participation from @MaCVentureCap , @DruidVentures, @l2iterative, @J17Crypto , Long Run Capital, Web3.Com Ventures, @IDGCapital , @sandeepnailwal , @EV3ventures , @mhventures , @wilsonsonsini , Scombridae, and strategic angels from @GoldmanSachs , @Harvard , and @OrangeDAOxyz as well as Josh Lim and @cory Levy from @zfellows . "We’re proud to back Votre as they bring a measured, compliant approach to the crypto space,” said @adrianfenty of MaC Ventures, the former mayor of the District of Columbia. “With a strong technical foundation and a clear regulatory strategy, they’re well-positioned to succeed as crypto markets evolve in the US.” Legally, today, Votre Inc is a nonbank lender and may be viewed as a swap dealer, operating under the de minimis exemption and does not provide tax, legal, or financial advice (yet!) Our first product is a proprietary, hedged Bitcoin-backed loan product focused on allowing HNWIs to access liquidity. We plan to pursue other regulatory designations over time as we expand our business. Thank you to our incredible backers - back to building!
