The result is a huge number of terrible but “defensible” startups being launched. Eg. So many investors would only invest in app layer companies that were training their own models 2 years ago. Now 90% of those companies are dead. All of the charlatan founders know how to pitch fake defensibility and they are fooling VCs everywhere
Jenny Fielding@jefielding

Right now, VCs care about one thing only…defensibility / moats so don’t bother pitching anything else. Like throw away the entire deck and just have one slide on that.

This is sad. I know as a politician these companies are going to spend a billion dollars against me for saying it but 🤷🏽‍♀️ Pervasive gambling is not good for society. It turns life into a casino, traps people in addiction & debt, surges domestic violence, and fosters manipulation.

Here’s the question nobody in Washington is asking about the Diego Garcia strike: how did Iran know exactly where to aim? They don’t have satellite coverage of the Indian Ocean. Someone gave them the targeting data. Who? And what does that make this war?

watershed moment for the the crypto industry - grateful to all the teams who dedicated immense amounts of capital and energy to lobbying, advocacy, and litigation over the last decade onward (not sure on the upward for now)
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission@SECGov

TODAY 🚨: The Commission issued an interpretation that clarifies the application of federal securities laws to crypto assets. This is a major step to provide greater clarity regarding the Commission’s treatment of crypto assets. Read the release here: ow.ly/XhhV50YvxvO

Department of Government Efficiency has solicited specific changes to government regulations that would be significantly impactful for innovation, economic growth, and government efficiency. Here are my three best ideas: (1) 15 U.S. Code § 80a–3 - Definition of investment company - delete the 99 investor limit in 3(c)1; delete 3(c) 7 in its entirety. The limit of 99 investor "slots" in 3(c)1 exempt investment companies is stupid. It encourages managers to jack up minimum investment requirements when it would be better for issuers and investors to allow for greater diversification. It causes funds managers to forego launches because with a 99 investor limit, what is the point? In the words of Warren Buffett, something not worth doing at all is not worth doing well. What is the magic about 99 investors? Precisely nothing. (2) 17 CFR § 230.506 - Exemption for limited offers and sales without regard to dollar amount of offering. The Reg D exemption should be extended to investor resales of issuer securities to facilitate the development of secondary markets. Investors and advisors alike are wary of private securities due to their lack of liquidity. But the lack of liquidity is a direct result of government restrictions on secondary trading. It is stupid that a resale of securities is subject to more stringent requirements than a primary exempt offering. Normalize the rules and secondary markets will expand and provide better outcomes for investors. Limited liquidity is good for nobody. Greater liquidity is good for everyone. (3) 26 CFR § 1.7704-1 - Publicly traded partnerships. Create an exemption for PTPs under $1bn. PTP rules preclude the development of robust secondary markets for private funds. The QMS exemption is very limited and not practical for small funds. Create a limited exemption for small private funds (<$1bn) and capital formation and secondary market liquidity will explode. These three changes --- eliminating the 99 investor cap in 3(c)1 of the Advisors Act, broaden the Reg D exemption to include resales of exempt securities, and establishing a limited exemption to the PTP rules to provide for secondary trading of small private funds ---would dramatically improve capital formation, liquidity, and transparency of private markets. #privatemarkets #secondarymarkets #doge #departmentofgovernmentefficiency #PTP #liquidity #Transparency @DOGE @VivekGRamaswamy @elonmusk

Everyone criticizes exempt offerings due to their lack of liquidity. But the lack of liquidity is specifically due to government restrictions on secondary trading. It is stupid that a resale of securities is subject to more stringent requirements than a primary exempt offering. Normalize the rules and secondary markets, on the same terms as the primary exempt offerings, will expand and provide better outcomes for investors. (3). PTP rules preclude the development of robust secondary markets for private funds. The QMS exemption is not practical for small funds. Create an exemption for small private funds (<$1bn) and capital formation and secondary market liquidity will explode.

DOGE is undergoing a serious analysis of wasteful and burdensome regulations, and is looking for public feedback! Which are the really bad ones? Please DM us the CFR provision, the relevant text from the regulation, and the adverse consequences of said regulation.

American innovation will die if we allow regulatory capture. Our letter is very simple: stop creating barriers to entry for small innovators and don’t put a wet blanket on the engine of American enterprise.

Great letter by @DanCrenshawTX & @brettguthrie, calling out @HHS_TechPolicy for promoting the creation of blatantly corrupt health AI assurance labs, run by @CHAI_nonprofit and legacy tech companies, in a pay-to-play model

That does seem odd, given that, unlike the founders Andreessen referred to who were debanked, SBF committed massive fraud
