Bitcoin just SMASHED past $66,000 — its highest level in over a week — as the Iran peace deal momentum continues and the market braces for Warsh's first FOMC meeting tomorrow. The setup is brutal: May CPI ripped to 4.2% (driven by the Iran/Hormuz energy spike), prediction markets now price 50-65% odds of at least one 2026 rate HIKE, and Warsh is expected to scrap Powell's forward guidance entirely — meaning Wednesday's dot plot could swing risk assets either direction. Add Saylor's most ambitious forecast yet (Bitcoin to $7 MILLION — "It's inevitable"), Chamath calling $1.14M per coin based on halving math, Kraken launching CFTC-regulated Bitcoin perps for US customers, Elon Musk's net worth crossing $1.3 TRILLION (bigger than all but 12 public companies), and Robinhood cutting 10% of its workforce — and today's setup is the cleanest pre-FOMC inflection we've seen all cycle. We break down whether the Iran rally has legs, what Warsh's first dot plot means for Bitcoin, and whether $7 million is actually possible or pure hopium. Learn more about your ad choices.

PLG can create explosive growth, but it can also mask fundamental gaps in execution, capacity, and long-term durability. As AI-native companies scale at unprecedented speed, revenue leaders face a new tension: how to convert bottom-up adoption into enterprise value without breaking the system that fueled growth. Brian McCarthy joins to unpack how Cursor is navigating this shift, why sales execution becomes the moat in a world of swappable technology, and what it takes to build a go-to-market machine that keeps pace with innovation while deepening customer trust. Brian McCarthy is President of Global Revenue and Field Operations at Cursor and former CRO at Rubrik, where he helped scale the company from $118M to $1.5B in ARR. He is known for building high-performance revenue organizations and execution-focused cultures in complex enterprise environments. Connect with Brian: LinkedIn Resources mentioned: Ep. 71 - What the Best Sales Leaders Do with Brian McCarthy All In Podcast with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg Key takeaways from this episode: 03:30 – Why great leaders know when to step away, and how building a successor is the true test of an execution machine 09:50 – What to look for in a once-in-a-career opportunity, and why timing matters more than brand or hype 17:03 – How PLG success created a capacity crisis, and why too much demand can degrade customer experience 29:29 – The decision to radically reduce account load, and how focus enables better selling and better buying experiences 32:16 – Why champions, not features, drive revenue, and how to intentionally build them across the organization 38:19 – The required balance between bottom-up adoption and top-down value selling in technical markets 41:31 – Why “clock speed” is the defining trait of modern sellers, and how enablement must fuel continuous learning 49:09 – The shift from tools to AI factories, and what it means for the future of software development and selling 52:01 – Why culture, trust, and human relationships remain the durable moat in a world of rapidly changing technology Hosted by five-time CRO John McMahon and Force Management Co-Founder John Kaplan, the Revenue Builders podcast goes behind the scenes with the sales leaders who have been there, done that, and seen the results.

In Episode 310 of The Block Runner Podcast, William, I-man, and TJ unpack how AI-generated brainrot content is becoming a real signal for cultural product-market fit, why Google's quantum warning should terrify crypto builders, and what the Taproot Wizards fallout says about speculative fundraising without clear execution. Key topics: How AI fruit videos, brainrot memes, and viral internet culture reveal where attention is actually flowing online Why NAT.fun may benefit from culture-native creation instead of fighting it, and how market signals can outperform vanity metrics Google's quantum warning for crypto, Chamath's honeypot framing, and why crypto may be the first public target of a real cryptographic break The growing concern that Bitcoin governance and core development may be more capital-driven than many investors want to admit Taproot Wizards, Quantum Cats, and the brutal post-raise drawdown that exposes weak execution and overpromised narratives Why bonding-curve style market discovery may be a cleaner model than raising massive capital upfront on speculative roadmap promises How DMT, cultural iteration, and creator tooling fit into NAT.fun's thesis as the team approaches launch Like, subscribe, and drop a comment with your take on whether crypto's biggest threat over the next few years is quantum, bad governance, or bad culture reads.

Chamath says the utility isn't there yet. The crew strongly disagrees. From fixing a $750-a-month water leak with one prompt to small business owners changing their entire operation overnight the future is already here, people just aren't paying attention. And with humanoid robots coming for blue collar jobs, what does the future of work actually look like? The guys make the case this moment is bigger than the iPhone and the internet combined.

Negotiations around stablecoin yield provisions are progressing as lawmakers prepare for a potential Senate Banking Committee markup of the Clarity Act. The White House recently shared updated legislative text with Senator Thom Tillis's office. Meanwhile, Dario Amodei had said Anthropic's designation as a risk to other contractors was punishment for failing to curry favor with Trump.

To justify the suspension, the country's telecommunications agency said it observed “content that undermines human dignity, the country's institutions, and national security” on digital platforms, but independent voices condemned the action as an obvious crackdown on dissent. Users of TikTok and Meta's platforms, including Facebook and WhatsApp, reported widespread disruptions beginning Wednesday, Feb. 18, which have widely disrupted people's ability to communicate. Freedom tech like Bitchat, which provides offline messaging capabilities, and Nostr, a protocol for decentralized, censorship-resistant communication, will continue to play important roles in preserving speech, expression, and communication as authoritarian regimes increasingly restrict internet freedom.

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg Key Takeaways Safety remains the FDA's number one priority, but stifling innovation for “absolute safety” (which can never be achieved) also costs lives The American health establishment must respond with humility when presented with a question it doesn't know; absolutism is the wrong response The objective of the FDA should not be to fight misinformation – it should be to deliver cures and meaningful treatments faster to the American public and healthier food for children It's time to stop drugging our nation's kids at scale because they are antsy from us locking them in LED light boxes all day and shoving processed food in their faces The first step in fixing the health of America's youth is flipping the food pyramid upside down and focusing on proteinDecades of medical dogma and corruption have put together food pyramids that make no sense; the food industry's influence on academia caused the inaccurate food pyramids A top goal of the FDA is to reduce drug prices and provide better access to drugs; this will be done by encouraging competition in the marketplace and making more drugs non-prescription Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.org(0:00) Friedberg intros FDA Commissioner Marty Makary (3:21) Inside the 42 major FDA reforms in 10 months (7:51) The China Race: Winning back biotech leadership (13:14) Accelerating drug approvals safely, how to cut down on clinical trial timelines (33:13) Reshaping the failed Food Pyramid (41:29) GLP-1s and America's Obesity Epidemic (49:54) Rethinking vaccines from first principles (59:40) Lowering drug prices, the power of AI for healthcare (1:18:57) What causes autism?

Send us a textThis week on The Skinny on Wall Street, Kristen and Jen dive into the resurgence of SPACs and yes, Chamath Palihapitiya, the once-dubbed “SPAC King,” is back with a brand-new deal. We unpack what a SPAC really is, why they exploded in 2020, changes in the new structures and more. From warrants and dilution to sponsor “promotes” and fee double-dips, we break down the mechanics in plain English and debate whether this latest wave feels like opportunity or déjà vu all over again.Alongside the SPAC talk, we zoom out to explore what's happening in broader markets. Jen highlights shifts in global rates, including why European long-term yields are rising even as the ECB cuts, while Kristen points to an unusual disconnect with U.S. credit spreads at 30-year lows. We also touch on a wild market day sparked by headlines about AI pilot program failures, raising the question of whether investors are once again pricing perfection into risk assets.Finally, we share some exciting updates from The Wall Street Skinny itself. We've launched live interactive events like AI-Proof Your Career on LinkedIn and YouTube, giving listeners the chance to learn and engage with us directly. Plus, in the spirit of “back to school,” we're running a limited-time flash sale on our finance courses, from express Excel bootcamps to deep-dive investment banking and private equity technicals.
