Crypto Biz: Bitcoin VC surges, Robinhood faces tokenization scrutiny, CZ debunks Golden Visa hype

Crypto and blockchain venture capital is back with a vengeance, raking in a cool $10 billion last quarter. But Ego Death Capital? They're all in on Bitcoin, dropping $100M to fuel the OG crypto's ecosystem. Because why bet on the whole casino when you can back the king?

Meanwhile, Robinhood's playing fast and loose with 'private equity tokens' in Europe, and regulators are NOT amused. OpenAI's like, 'That's not how any of this works,' but Robinhood's stock? Still mooning. Go figure.

These guys just bagged $100M to throw at Bitcoin-only startups. Their pitch? BTC's the only decentralized bedrock worth building on. They're scouting for teams pulling in $1M-$3M yearly—because even in crypto, revenue's not a dirty word.

Robinhood's 'private equity tokens' for OpenAI and SpaceX? More like creative accounting. EU regulators are side-eyeing hard, but Vlad Tenev's shrugging—'It's exposure, not equity.' And guess what? More companies are lining up for this tokenization rodeo.

CoreWeave finally locked down Core Scientific for a cool $9B. The play? Repurpose those mining rigs for AI and high-performance computing. Because when life gives you ASICs, make... not Bitcoin, apparently.

TON's big reveal: stake $100K in TON, drop $35K in fees, score a UAE Golden Visa. CZ's instant reaction: 'LOL, prove it.' Spoiler: UAE officials called BS within 24 hours. TON backpedaled faster than a noob on a futures trade.
