This is huge for tokenized assets: Tokens issued under the SEC exemptions will have the same shareholder rights as traditional stocks - including dividends and proxy voting. Not just exposure to a stock. Actual shareholder rights.

Welcome to the EU, dear Canada. 🇨🇦🇪🇺👋🏻

The absurdity of the Berlin election: Regardless of whether the CDU or the Left emerges as the strongest party, both will probably need the SPD and the Greens in the end. So the real choice is more like: two or three left-wing parties in government?

Spoiler Alert: I think we all know who will be giving this year's Christmas address. In any case, it won't be Merz anymore. 😅

Imagine marrying into Anthropic C-level and still getting your Dario news from Twitter like the rest of us plebs. 😅

This is what it looks like when Elon Musk runs a construction site, by the way. In Berlin, people are already happy if they see even a single construction worker at the site.

The pension system is the biggest scam perpetrated against workers—and no one is doing anything about it. Between 2008 and 2017, I paid a total of around €76,000 into the pension fund. That would result in a monthly pension of about €532 today. If I had invested the money in an MSCI World ETF instead

The proposal to cut Bürgergeld for wanted criminals already existed. It came from the AfD, but the CDU/CSU voted against it.

With the money I had left on Polymarket, I bet that Merz won’t survive politically this year. It reminded me again how incredibly annoying Polymarket is: orders don’t go through, order books don’t load, etc. In its current state, it’s simply unusable.

Get your credit cards ready. 😅 $TSLA

I guess Aschenbrenner’s timing was way off, FOMOing into all those AI stocks just days before Anthropic, OpenAI, and Elon agreed to slow down AI development.

$LSK went completely feral today: ripped +500% to $2, then dumped half of it. Shorts got smoked, with $30M+ liquidated. What actually happened: Lisk Chain shuts down Oct. 31, the project is pivoting to business finance/payments, $LSK survives on ETH/Base as a loyalty token, and

OpenAI isn’t delaying an IPO because of “safety concerns.” Come on. The more obvious explanation: They don’t want to file an S-1 and show the world what the financials actually look like. Side note: The pre-IPO price hasn’t tanked nearly as much as you might expect.

What is Aschenbrenner buying these days? He’s basically rebuilding his portfolio and once again opening large positions in $AMD, $INTC, $SKHY, $CRWV and $SNDK according to the FT.

8/ Less geopolitical, but quite dystopian: A Chinese company operated more than 20 dating apps. Anthropic found: → 4,700 AI personas → at least 25,000 real users → 2.36 million messages About 75% of the feed consisted of AI personas. Dating apps create

7/ Intelligence work can also be scaled. An alleged Chinese actor had Claude analyze more than 100 WhatsApp groups and Telegram channels belonging to Uyghurs. They were looking for people with financial problems, family separations, or other possible

5/ Russian cyber spies took it one step further. AI agents monitored whether their malware was detected by security software. If it was detected: → change code → recompile → test again → repeat Continuous Integration, but evil.

6/ In other attacks, AI agents did “nearly all of the work,” according to Anthropic. For example, a hacker went from a stolen developer token to administrative control of a cloud environment within around three hours. The truly alarming thing:

4/ Particularly noteworthy is a case from Mali. According to Anthropic, a single developer built a surveillance system for the intelligence service with Claude that was supposed to process data from around 25 million SIM cards. Calls. SMS. Location data. Dossiers. What previously presumably a
