Most can't see it yet but I am watching up close as IREN positions itself to make a run at being one of the largest companies on the planet. There are no guarantees of anything in life but IREN has all the right ingredients. Let's freaking go.

I am excited to announce that I have joined the board of directors at Opendoor (NASDAQ: OPEN). OPEN is an important company solving a big problem in a massive market. I have already begun working with Kaz and the board. More to come. investor.opendoor.com/news-r…

I am increasingly concerned about firms spending hundreds of billions of dollars on chips without the physical infrastructure required to plug them in. We could see whale-level deaths if these guys are building a bridge to nowhere. Need more power & infra asap. Who can help?

Ok, that’s it. I’ve seen enough to call it. $100,000 Bitcoin by Thanksgiving.

To clarify, and to prevent confusion, I am thanking Elon for all the wonderful things he has done to advance human progress, including flying cars and sending a human to Mars.

Is Bitcoin heading to $100,000 or crashing to $10,000, and are we witnessing the beginning of an AI bubble or just another buying opportunity?

Congrats to Elon Musk and the SpaceX team on a great quarter. SPCX is building a credible path to justifying the company's valuation. Notably, 52% of revenue came from the superintelligence segment. Elon says compute demand is overwhelmingly high and prices rising. Interesting.

It’s been 4 months. This was contrarian at the time. Watch as it becomes consensus. Game, set, match.
SpaceX needed a highly valued public currency so it could start doing acquisitions to add to its empire. $60B for Cursor is just the start. I expect they will make a run at a bunch of physical infrastructure operators. The incentives are all there. Watch and enjoy.
