John Quinn is joined by Jack Neumark, Managing Partner and Co-Head of Specialty Finance of Fortress Investment Group and founder of its Legal Assets Group. They discuss the emergence of legal assets as a distinct investment class. Fortress is a leading player in litigation finance with over $6.5 billion deployed in legal assets and a current portfolio of approximately $3 billion. While most litigation funders typically invest in individual cases, Fortress invests in diversified portfolios of litigation claims and contingent fee receivables. Fortress underwrites and finances these portfolios the same way it does other specialty finance products. To underwrite a portfolio, Fortress has lawyers examine the cases in the portfolio to determine how strong and likely to settle they are. They consider factors including the defendants and how creditworthy they are, the damage theories asserted, how far the case has progressed, what motion practice has revealed, and whether related criminal charges have been filed. They also consider the law firms involved, the judge, and the venue. Fortress also conducts quantitative analyses of the historical results of similar cases based on publicly available data and proprietary data it has accumulated in the 15 years it has invested in legal assets. Legal asset portfolios are attractive to many investors because the results of lawsuits are less subject to the performance of the economy in general than many other classes of assets. Also, because the market for legal assets is still developing, sophisticated investors can often obtain better returns than in more mature markets. Jack believes that as the industry matures, especially with potential regulatory changes around law firm ownership, litigation finance will become more mainstream and integrated into broader investment strategies.Podcast Link: Law-disrupted.fmHost: John B.

Fortress Investment Group has powered its way to the top of the litigation funding industry. It has committed $6.6 billion to legal assets, and another $2.9 billion to intellectual property. But beyond the money, the secret to the firm's success may be its intensity and attention to detail. Bloomberg Law litigation finance reporter Emily Siegel sat down for almost three hours with two Fortress executives: Jack Neumark, managing partner and co-CIO, and Eran Zur, head of intellectual property. They discussed the firm's litigation finance activities in depth for the first time. Siegel also sifted through UCC filings to uncover where some of that money goes. On this episode of our podcast, On The Merits, Siegel details what she learned about this secretive company, who they work with, and how Zur's article nearly ten years ago about patent trolls keeps coming back to haunt him.

Buyers of distressed real estate debt stand to make significant gains over the next few years, according to Joshua Pack, co-CEO at Fortress Investment Group. “This is going to be a trillion-dollar opportunity,” he said. Pack discusses how Fortress is getting ready for “a massive restructuring” in the sector with Bloomberg News' Lisa Lee and James Crombie and Bloomberg Intelligence's Tolu Alamutu in the latest Credit Edge podcast. The impact on banks will be long-lasting and not limited to smaller financial institutions, says Pack, who predicts more consolidation and liquidation. Also in this episode, Alamutu analyzes the real estate stress spreading through Europe that's hurting banks, insurers and asset managers. Germany and Sweden are areas of concern, while Signa's insolvency adds Austria to the list of hot spots, Alamutu says. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tim West, Partner in Ashurst's Dispute Resolution practice is joined by Anna Morfey, a Partner in Ashurst's competition litigation team and Rosie Ioannou, Director – Legal Assets at Fortress Investment Group.

VICE Media, una conocida cabecera de prensa digital dirigida a los llamados “millenials” declaró este lunes la quiebra y se acogió al capítulo 11 para reestructurar la compañía y salvar lo que se pueda. Lo más seguro es que termine en manos de Fortress Investment Group y Soros Fund Management, que se harán con VICE a un precio muy barato, especialmente si lo comparamos con la valoración que tenía hace unos pocos años. En su mejor momento VICE llegó a valer 5.700 millones de dólares, hoy se estima que Fortress y Soros pagarán por ella tan sólo 225 millones de dólares. El periódico es la parte más reconocible de un conglomerado mediático que reúne un magazine, una productora de televisión y un canal de YouTube con 8,5 millones de suscriptores que ofrece una serie de formatos propios muy populares, pero también muy caros de producir. Hace sólo unos años VICE era sinónimo de éxito. Grandes inversores se interesaron por el medio revelación e inyectaron dinero en la compañía. La cabecera se internacionalizó abriendo ediciones en diferentes idiomas, entre ellos el español, y redacciones por medio mundo. Era el medio de moda y todos se peleaban por su cobertura. Pero no han sabido madurar y convertirse en un medio de comunicación a la altura de lo que decía valer. En 2021 empezaron en serio los problemas. La empresa gastaba mucho más de lo que ingresaba y su modelo de negocio informativo, basado en noticias virales, hacía aguas por los cuatro costados. VICE dependía de los algoritmos de las principales redes sociales que muestran y recomiendan contenido a sus usuarios. Tan pronto como el algoritmo cambiaba, las estadísticas de VICE se desplomaban agravando los problemas y empujando a la redacción a doblar la apuesta. Todo en nombre del tráfico, el célebre “clickbait”, noticias llamativas, pero sin contenido y cuyo titular ejerce como anzuelo. A partir de 2018 y tras varios escándalos por las llamadas noticias falsas, redes sociales como Facebook aplicaron cambios de envergadura en sus algoritmos de recomendación. Eso afectó directamente VICE y a otros medios de corte similar como Buzzfedd, Mashable o Playground, elaborados con la misma filosofía editorial. Hace cinco o seis años todo el mundo hablaba de ellos y los había incluso que les señalaban como el futuro del periodismo. Estaban concebidos para gente joven y contaban con buena parte de su contenido en formato audiovisual. La idea era buena, pero también extraordinariamente cara ya que exigía fuertes inversiones muy dependientes del tráfico y de grandes acuerdos publicitarios. Ambas cosas se esfumaron en los dos últimos años poniendo en serios apuros la cuenta de resultados de todas estas empresas. Para tratar este asunto vuelve La ContraCrónica Rubén Arranz, redactor del diario Vozpópuli, un digital a la antigua usanza donde lleva la sección de medios de comunicación. Rubén ha seguido de cerca las andanzas de estos nuevos medios y los conoce bien. Con él vamos a desentrañar las claves de una muerte anunciada desde hace, como poco, un par de años. · Canal de Telegram: https://t.me/lacontracronica · “Hispanos.

The Medford, Oregon Mail Tribune can trace its roots back to 1909 when the morning Medford Mail and afternoon Tribune merged under the Putnam family, creating what the paper claimed to be "The largest printing and publishing establishment in Southern Oregon.” It was decades later that this venerable brand would begin a journey of "swap and sale," moving from Down jones/ Ottaway ownership to Rupert Murdoch's News Corp., to Newcastle Investment Corp. (an affiliate of Fortress Investment Group) and later merging into the growing Gatehouse Media Group. Gatehouse sold the Mail Tribune in 2017 to media businessman Steven Saslow and its sister paper, the Ashland Daily Tidings, for $15 million. Saslow then reportedly secured financing from the right-wing-centered Sinclair broadcast group that same week, according to public records obtained by Jefferson Public Radio. Shortly after the purchase, the paper began working under the ownership name of Rosebud Media in conjunction with the Sinclair-owned TV station in Medford, KTVL. In a very short time, many of the newspaper's newsroom employees were let go, replacing most of the website content with video programming. In 2018, Mail Tribune online viewers were 1st greeted with a “Rosebud Update” video, which included national and local headlines from a studio in Florida and a right-wing oriented video op-ed section entitled Rosewood Commentary. In August 2021, the Mail Tribune went from printing the newspaper seven days a week to four days per week. Then, on September 30, 2023, Saslow announced that the Mail Tribune would cease publication of a printed edition, stating that "printing and delivery costs for the newspaper were threatening the business.” And finally, on Wednesday, January 11, 2023, Saslow made the unexpected announcement that he was shutting down the online operations altogether and letting the entire team go — thus ending the over 100 years of publishing. While the industry was grappling with the idea of Oregon's fourth largest MDA with a population of over 200,000, losing its newspaper of record, news soon broke that EO Media Group, a fourth-generation family-owned company based in Oregon that publishes 18 titles, was going to launch a new newspaper to serve the Medford area, The Rouge Valley Tribune, with a debut print edition “hitting the streets” today, February 18, 2023. EO Media Group stated that they will place an editorial staff of 14 in the newsroom. The editorial team will work for long-time Mail Tribune journalist and former editor David Smigelski, who EO Media COO Heidi Wright recently hired. Smigelski reminisced about his 16-plus years at Mail Tribune in his first editorial for the new Rouge Valley Tribune, stating, "We became pawns in a multinational media chess game." He then said, "The Mail Tribune was abruptly closed on January 13, with just two days' notice to employees. Ten days later, I was standing inside the JC Penney building in Medford with Bulletin publisher Heidi Wright, figuring out where to put desks and phones. As we planned, she used words I could understand. “We know newspapers aren't a cash cow, but we're not here to get rich,” she said. “We want to do this because it's important.” I wanted to hug her, but I thought it might be unprofessional. Crying was probably poor form, as well, but I couldn't stop a little mist from building up. After 16 years, I feel like I'm back home. With newspaper people — family people.” In this 175th episode of "E&P Reports," we explore how EO Media Group is replacing the now shut-down Medford, Oregon Mail Tribune with its new start-up publication: "The Rouge Valley Tribune." We speak with EO Media Group's COO Heidi Wright and EO Media Group Board Member and Director of Audience Development Susan Forester Rana about why and how the company is committing to launch a new print publication during such tumultuous times. Also joining in the dialogue is David Smigelski, former editor of the Mail Tribune, now in his first week of print publishing as editor of the new The Rouge Valley Tribune.

We want to be the place that powers the transaction. So we're not really trying to be a marketplace with, you know, hundreds of thousands of listings. We want this to be a place where a broker and investor can actually transact online. So we've got some third-party integrations that we're looking to add, which would include, you know, diligence, title, contract negotiation, all the kind of things that we want to bring online. [00:00:38] Sam Wilson: Gordon Smith is a seasoned real estate finance and private equity professional with extensive experience in asset management, brokerage, and operations. Gordon, welcome to the show. [00:00:47] Gordon Smith: Thanks, Sam. [00:00:48] Sam Wilson: Hey, the pleasure's mine, Gordon. Hey, there are three questions I ask every guest who comes from the show: in 90 seconds or less, can you tell me where did you start? Where are you now, and how did you get there? [00:00:56] Gordon Smith: Yeah, so I started my career at actually CBRE as a commercial real estate broker. And then made the transition to a private equity firm called Fortress Investment Group, and I am now running two technology real estate technology platforms. One is Biproxi and one is OfficeSpace.com. [00:01:12] Sam Wilson: That's a lot of transition. Did you ever know, I guess, early on that you had an interest in technology, or was this something that just kind of came to you along the way? [00:01:24] Gordon Smith: It came to me along the way. At Fortress, we made an investment, the first online marketplace, which was called Auction.com, which was a residential platform, right? And then Ten-X and I went on the board of that company and the founder, you know, I saw what they were doing, it seemed really exciting, and he convinced me to leave Fortress and come run the commercial business for him, which was called Ten-X. [00:01:47] Sam Wilson: Got it. So you, you moved to Ten-X and now you are at Biproxi. [00:01:52] Gordon Smith: Yeah. We built Ten-X up over around three years. That was sold to a private equity firm, and then I sort of took a year off and launched Biproxi. [00:02:00] Sam Wilson: Gotcha. So Biproxi is your own animal, like this is something you've built, It is built from... [00:02:05] Gordon Smith: Yes. I've got two co-founders, but it is my own animal. [00:02:07] Sam Wilson: That's cool. I love that. And I'm certainly, in the early days back, or I say early to my early days in real estate, spent plenty of time at Auction.com auctions buying foreclosure properties. That's how we cut our teeth. So, you know, I'm very familiar with that process. That's really cool. What is the major problem in the marketplace that you see that you're trying to actively solve? [00:02:29] Gordon Smith: Yeah, I think we're trying to, you know, if you look at a lot of marketplaces, they started with aggregation. You know, you look at, it could be anything from fashion to, you know, this traditional auction platforms. And what's happened over time is that the quality of listing data on a lot of these sites really produces a tough buyer experience. They've got to sift through a lot of listings. Most of them or some of them are inaccurate. Many times they'll call the broker and not get a callback. I mean, we interviewed a Chicago investor who wanted to invest in Florida. You know, because no one knew who he was and he was coming from out of town, he could not get the mind share of the brokerage community there. So we really built Biproxi to be more of a buyer matching platform, and we curate the listings, we make sure they're accurate. We ask the buyers to provide us with detailed information on what they're looking for. We ask the broker to actually profile their listing, and then hopefully we match them up. We joke it's Tinder for real estate, but hopefully we match them up inside our app rather than relying on what's traditionally been sort of an email blast that's undirected and usually gets deleted. [00:03:34] Sam Wilson: Right. Yeah, there's certainly plenty of that. You know, those email blasts that you get and I think the problem for, you know, for us as investors is getting those email blasts, is remembering that, Oh, hey, Gordon sent me an email. Like, oh, yeah, I need to go back and review that. I did, shoot, I did it today. I was at the doctor's office with my daughter. I'm like, oh, yeah, somebody sent me a deal last week, and I haven't, you know, you looked at it once, you hit read, and then forgot about it. [00:03:57] Gordon Smith: Yeah. [00:03:57] Sam Wilson: And that's bad for everybody. I mean, that's bad for the broker, that's bad for us as investors. Outside of, though, just creating a set of filters, right, I mean, your platform has to be more than filters, which is just like, Oh, I want to buy in Florida and I want to buy, you know, office space and I want to, it needs to be over 10,000, whatever. I'm just making up numbers. [00:04:15] Gordon Smith: Yeah. [00:04:15] Sam Wilson: What else did you guys do to really dial this in and say, this is a product that the market wants? [00:04:21] Gordon Smith: Yeah, so we've developed a bunch of tools that enable a broker and an investor to transact. So we have a private listing tool, which allows a broker to run an off market deal and decide who they want to admit so they can kind of curate, their buyer database. Or we just develop Private Events, which is actually the first, and since you're familiar with auction, you'll understand this, it's really the first self-service auction tool that can be run by the broker, he or she, rather than relying on a much more kind of structured auction process that the broker doesn't always. [00:04:55] Sam Wilson: That's pretty impressive. I love the idea of a private listing where it's like, Hey, you know what? I want Sam to see this. I want Gordon to see it. I want three other people to see this deal. And again, as opposed to emailing them or texting him or calling you and say, Hey, it's right here inside of the Biproxi platform. When you say quality goes down, I'm thinking of some other well-known sites. I probably shouldn't mention 'em, but quality goes down as these deals just get, you know, they put a name of a website in there and say, that's where deals go to die, right? I think that's probably what you're referring to. How did you get your company built? I mean, obviously, you have a background in technology, but you're not a technology or a technologist, is even a word, yourself. [00:05:35] Gordon Smith: Yeah. Well, obviously learned a lot at Ten-X when I ran that. You know, I ran product and marketing, and Ten-X really is a pure auction site, so, you know, we always had a vision for really bringing the traditional process online. So if you look at where we're headed long term, this should be a place for a broker to market their listing, you know, list it, market it, and eventually transact online. That's our long-term vision, but obviously, I've surrounded myself with, you know, a great engineering team. Our co-founder runs product. She's got a lot of experience and then it's all about the team you built. [00:06:06] Sam Wilson: Absolutely. Absolutely. That's absolutely cool. And you guys really have two components. You've got the broker side, which is one part of your business you serve. And then you have the investor side that you serve. Are those two different animals or is it something that it's kind one of the same? [00:06:22] Gordon Smith: No, they are. I mean, we believe fundamentally that our platform will get massive adoption if we can bring more investors to the platform 'cause that's ultimately what the brokerage community wants, right? They want buyers for their listings. And we have a couple of tools that are interesting for investors. We have a product called Data Explorer, which gives you all the national tax record data on every property in the United States, including owner unmasking if we've got it. Transaction, financing history, demographic data, and we're going to keep adding to that and that product is actually free on our site. [00:06:55] Sam Wilson: Wow. That's impressive. I mean, that's a whole suite of tools. I mean, you've got so many different data providers out there. [00:07:02] Gordon Smith: Well, you've got Black Knight obviously. Yes. First American has their own data product. Our partner is a relatively new company called Cherry. And we use them because they ingest all this data, but spend more time cleaning it. So it's better quality than what you might get from a raw tax record. [00:07:19] Sam Wilson: Right. Right. And so I guess from an end-user experience, you guys monetize this from a subscription model or how do you guys make money on this? [00:07:27] Gordon Smith: Yeah, we are purely a SaaS model, which, again, if you look at our self-service auction product, you know, the cost of running that for a broker and an investor is meaningfully less than, you know, paying a three to five point buyers premium. [00:07:41] Sam Wilson: That's fantastic. What are some problems in the marketplace right now that you guys haven't yet solved, that you look forward to solving? [00:07:49] Gordon Smith: We eventually want to bring the whole transaction. We want to be the place that powers the transaction, so we're not really trying to be a marketplace with, you know, hundreds of thousands of listings. We want this to be a place where a broker and investor can actually transact online. So we've got some third-party integrations that we're looking to add, which would include, you know, diligence, title, contract negotiation, all the kind of things that we want to bring online. [00:08:15] Sam Wilson: Are there asset classes, and hopefully I'm asking the right question here, but are there asset classes that you guys don't have the data for? I asked this specifically ‘cause I used to be in parking. Back in pre-pandemic, we bought parking lots and parking garages and I couldn't find data on that anywhere. [00:08:30] Gordon Smith: Yeah, that's actually a good question. I'm going to go back and there's definitely 11 non-disclosure states where the data's not as good. And there's roughly, I don't know, 3,300 counties in the US, and all of them kind of present their data differently. So, you know, that's a little bit of a challenge, but it's getting better and better. I think in general, we've got tax record data on pretty much everything. We might not have transaction data and then nondisclosure states. [00:08:54] Sam Wilson: Right. Right. Yeah. And that would be an interesting challenge to work around, 11 non-disclosure states. And by that, can you tell our listeners what that means? [00:09:03] Gordon Smith: Yeah. So what it really means is, you know, when the deed is signed, and I think the mechanics are probably different every state, but the sales price is not disclosed publicly. [00:09:12] Sam Wilson: Right. Got it. That's very, very helpful. Tell me this, on the buyer matching side, can you walk me through that process and why that's so important to what you guys do? [00:09:22] Gordon Smith: So, you know, one of the buyer investor complaints is that when they submit a lead to another site, the broker usually just gets an email address without any detail on who that person is. And in some cases, the broker's getting so many leads and it's hard for them to follow up on all of them. So our basic thesis is by asking the buyer to be very specific about what they're looking for and asking the broker to actually profile who they think the logical buyer is for this asset, then we run a match, and if there is a match, then we put the investor's information in the broker's dashboard. We don't disclose the phone number until the investor says they'd like, you know, to speak to the broker 'cause we obviously want to respect that. But that is basically, we run the algorithm and if there's a match then we put the two together. [00:10:13] Sam Wilson: I mean, that's so simple. It seems so simple, but yet I'm sure it's quite complicated on the back end. But, I mean, what a cool way to get curated listings sent right to you as an investor, as opposed to, again, you know, reading that email from this morning where there's probably eight or 10 different properties on that email blast. And I'm like, No, that's the wrong state. No, that's not. And you got to go to the bottom. And then by the time you got into the bottom, somebody's interrupted you and you forgot all about it. [00:10:38] Gordon Smith: Yeah, no, it's a real promise. And it's, you know, if you look at Apple's privacy changes, it's even harder for you as a marketer to track even who's opening those emails anymore. So a gain, it's really curation over aggregation. [00:10:50] Sam Wilson: Right. Right. And I think one thing you said though, that you guys don't want to become though, is just a giant listing site. Like, there's enough listing sites out there. So how do you effectively onboard brokers with their opportunities, match those two, then investors, without becoming a listing site? [00:11:08] Gordon Smith: So it's not about the quantity of listings we've got on the site. We want a broker to think of our platform as a place to bring their listing and run their sales process. So, you know, we don't need 50,000 listings to do that. We just need a very intentional broker who wants to run their process. We spend all our time driving investors to our platform. We think we need roughly, probably five to one investors for every listing, right? And then if they don't find anything that exactly matches what they're looking for, at least they've got our data product, you know, to do some discovery on their own. [00:11:41] Sam Wilson: What's the adoption process been like for you guys? [00:11:44] Gordon Smith: So right now we're kind of in a free promotional period. We're really spending more time just getting user adoption. And we probably intend to, you know, start putting our paywall up in early 2023. But right now, it's just about getting people to use and love the product. [00:12:02] Sam Wilson: Yeah. I wondered about that, you know, and and I'm not in the technology business, but I wondered about that early on, how you guys tackled that problem 'cause you know, early on you have to have people using the platform in order to generate interest, generate just kind of some momentum there. [00:12:16] Gordon Smith: Yeah. But they'll always be a free component of our product. Like I said, that's our data product that'll always be available to investors if they want to do some discovery. And that's our general theory. [00:12:26] Sam Wilson: That's really, really cool. I absolutely love that. Is there anything else that comes to mind that you say, Hey, here's something that I really wish people knew about our platform and about what we do that I haven't covered. [00:12:37] Gordon Smith: Well, I think, you know, for a broker who's looking to upload their listing, it's a very intuitive process. We've spent a lot of time, you know, if if you are marketing a retail asset, it'll then give you a choice of what type of retail asset. So I think, you know, as a, just a core listing product, it's actually very intuitive and easy to use. All our messaging, it stays in the app. So every asset you've ever looked at or spoken to a broker, you have that in the app forever, right? So you always have a history of all your interactions, and I think that's, also a big difference. [00:13:10] Sam Wilson: It sure is, especially as you're developing relationships with new brokers and new markets. It again can be, you know, you're solving problems that I think about where it's like, Oh yeah, I reached out to somebody. I can't remember his name. Who was that again? [00:13:21] Gordon Smith: By email. [00:13:22] Sam Wilson: Yeah. Right, right. Then you're searching email by asset or where you think it was located. And again, it's just a cluster of like, this is never going to actually locate that. That's really fantastic. [00:13:32] Gordon Smith: So the idea is that you know, all your messaging, either as an investor or a broker is all in your app, in your dashboard. [00:13:37] Sam Wilson: Man, that's really, really cool. When did you guys hit the go-live button? When did this officially launch? [00:13:43] Gordon Smith: We went live in October, November of '21 with kind of our V1 of the product. We released, you know, Private Event. We released Private Listing kind of in the summer of this year. So it's kind of really, now, you know, we're kind of putting the pedal to the metal. [00:13:59] Sam Wilson: Man, that's cool. I love it. I'm looking forward to getting in and spending more time there on your website. For those who are listening, that's Biproxi, B I P R O X I.com. Look forward to checking that out a little bit more. Gordon, if our listeners want to get in touch with you, and I know I just mentioned your website as well, but if just want to get in touch with you, learn more about what you guys do, what's the best way to do that? [00:14:20] Gordon Smith: Probably just my email. It's gordon@biproxi.com. They're free to call me if you want me to give out my phone number, but probably email's easiest. [00:14:27] Sam Wilson: That's fantastic. I love it. Gordon, I'm looking forward to using your product. This will be a lot of fun. I'm going to spend some time on there getting my information uploaded 'cause I know there's certainly an asset class I specialize in that I look forward to, yeah, put it out there what we're looking for. So thank you again for building the product and, yeah, thanks for coming to the show today. [00:14:43] Gordon Smith: Awesome, Sam, great to meet you.

#shib #shiba #shibcoin #shibarmy #bitcoin #btc #ethereum #crypto #solana #cardano #cryptonews #crypto Las ballenas son entidades (individuos, instituciones e intercambios) que poseen cantidades significativas de tokens de una criptomoneda en particular. Por ejemplo, cuando se trata de Bitcoin , una ballena es una cuenta que tiene 1000 Bitcoins o más . Algunos ejemplos de ballenas conocidas incluyen Pantera Capital y Fortress Investment Group. Otra ballena popular, aunque ampliamente especulada, es Satoshi Nakamoto , de quien se dice que extrajo más de un millón de Bitcoins. ¿Cómo manipulan las ballenas las criptomonedas? En febrero de 2021, el valor de la criptomoneda Ether cayó de USD 1628 a USD 700 por minuto en el intercambio de criptomonedas Kraken. Si bien varios factores podrían haber contribuido a ello, el CEO de Kraken, Jesse Powell, sintió que fue una sola ballena la que "decidió deshacerse de los ahorros de toda su vida", lo que resultó en la caída. Debido a que las Las ballenas tienen tanta criptomoneda, que sus movimientos pueden manipular el valor del token de manera masiva. Además, dado que tienen más fondos en juego, tienen más poder de voto . En gran medida, hay dos formas en que las ballenas manipulan la criptomoneda: Pueden crear un efecto de “muro de venta” A veces, una ballena realiza un pedido masivo para vender una gran parte de sus tokens criptográficos. Mantienen el precio más bajo que otras órdenes de venta. Eso provoca volatilidad, lo que resulta en la reducción general de los precios de las criptomonedas. A esto le sigue una reacción en cadena en la que la gente entra en pánico y también comienza a vender sus tokens a un precio más barato. Gracias a eso, las ballenas pueden comprar más monedas a un precio más bajo, logrando así más poder. Pueden capitalizar el miedo a perderse algo (FOMO) Al contrario del efecto de "muro de venta", las ballenas a menudo inflan artificialmente los precios de los tokens al realizar grandes órdenes de compra. Crean un deseo por los tokens de criptomonedas, instando así a las personas a aumentar sus ofertas. Al hacerlo, también captan la atención de otros inversionistas que temen perderse un negocio excelente y rentable. Los inversores sienten que a medida que aumenta la demanda del token, también deberían obtener una parte. De esta manera, las ballenas pueden vender algunas de sus fichas para obtener una ganancia decente. En esencia, las ballenas crean un efecto dominó que afecta a los demás inversores de un token. Al aumentar y disminuir los precios, pueden manipular el mercado a su favor. Como comerciantes de criptomonedas, debe prestar la debida atención al movimiento de las ballenas. Puede hacerlo participando en un análisis de blockchain para realizar un seguimiento de las cuentas con una alta valoración de tokens criptográficos, siguiendo las alertas de ballenas en Twitter y otras plataformas de redes sociales, así como suscribiéndose a plataformas de análisis que vigilan los precios criptográficos en su nombre. . Muchos factores contribuyen a la volatilidad de las criptomonedas . Las ballenas son un elemento importante. Para asegurarse de que está operando de manera rentable, asegúrese de tener en cuenta las ballenas en sus decisiones de compra y venta.
Friends,This episode is about a domain of healthcare delivery that will undergo a fundamental transformation over the next 3 - 5 years. It is the most precarious and fragmented stage of care - post-hospital discharge and post-acute care transitions. It is a side of healthcare that is ripe for disruption, with the potential to greatly reduce readmissions, reduce total costs of care, and dramatically reduce preventable pain and suffering for patients and their families.Our guest today, Yoni Shtein, is a serial entrepreneur who started his journey as a software engineer at Microsoft. Having completed his MBA at Harvard, Yoni joined RPX Corp as a founding member of the insurance business. After RPX went public, Yoni left to co-found and merge a tech fund into Fortress Investment Group, where he spent six years as an investor. Yoni then moved to Israel and launched Laguna Health, a ‘digital recovery assurance company', with his longtime friend and colleague from Microsoft, Yael Peled Adam. They also have recently brought Dr. Alan Spiro on as their President and Chief Medical Officer. In this episode, we'll discover:Why Yoni states that “recovery is everyone's problem and no one's job”, and how Laguna is making it their job!Why and how Laguna is focused on the behavioral and contextual aspects of care, even more than the clinical signs and symptoms.The three platforms that Laguna has created to engage patients and guide providers in optimizing transitions of care: their patient-facing app, the Harmony Case/Care Management Platform, and their Clinical Care EngineHow Laguna is customizing care through a “choose your own adventure” approach.The tremendous outcomes Laguna is achieving in readmission reduction.During the interview Yoni states his fundamental thesis: “Laguna is reframing healthcare in changing the dialogue from readmissions and provider penalties to member ‘recovery journeys' and payer cost drivers.” He points out that the most fundamental problem in transitions of care is the misalignment of incentives. Let's unpack his statement.The reality is that healthcare systems and provider groups are not financially incentivized to optimize patients' health after discharge. While there has been an increased focus over the past few years on reducing readmission rates (driven in large part by CMS readmission penalties); the fact is that hospitals' financials are not aligned to post-hospital care. And, just to be clear, this is not to blame hospital systems. Instead, it's a commentary on how care is paid for in our country. Given that reality, Yoni and his colleagues are targeting their efforts at entities whose business models are aligned with improving post-discharge care: (1) self-insured employers; (2) Medicare Advantage Health Plans; and (3) payers or healthcare systems that are taking financial risk for their populations' total cost of care.A second reframe that Laguna is introducing is instead of focusing on a metric (i.e. 30-day readmission rate); they are focused on the patient's “recovery journey”. They're using decades of published research to identify “recovery barriers”, and are designing their products and services to mitigate and eliminate those barriers. A third reframe that Laguna has introduced is that they have designed their care model to address the behavioral and contextual aspects of care. They're identifying and solving for the daily barriers that people face in engaging with healthcare and optimizing their health.According to Yoni, over 50% of all readmissions are preventable. That means that the American healthcare system is failing patients and their families one out of every two readmissions. It's been said that our healthcare system is perfectly designed to deliver the results it delivers. But if we understand how wrong those results are, why aren't we changing the system more intentionally and more immediately? Why aren't more healthcare leaders not pushing to create a new healthcare? Far from being discouraged, these questions only strengthen my resolve to seek avenues to create a new and more humanistic healthcare system. And, it also strengthens my belief that we need more leaders like those in Laguna, who are reframing healthcare to be what patients, their families, as well as providers need it to be, and not what ‘the system' dictates it be. Until Next Time, Be Well.Zeev Neuwirth, MD

Bitcoin, and crypto more broadly, have been on a huge tear lately. Then, with the chaos surrounding GameStop, there's been more discussion about whether financial markets could be rebuilt in a fairer way, perhaps involving crypto or decentralized finance. Probably one of the best positioned to take advantage of such a shift is Mike Novogratz, the CEO of Galaxy Digital, which might best be described as a crypto investment bank. Prior to his current endeavors, Novogratz was a global macro fund manager at Fortress Investment Group, and prior to that he was at Goldman Sachs, meaning he's seen the traditional finance world, and this new world. He talks to us about why he's so bullish on crypto, and how it can be used to create a fairer and better financial system.
Michael Novogratz (@novogratz) is the founder and CEO of Galaxy Digital with a list of accolades that stacks up with the best. Michael worked at Goldman Sachs for 11 years, chosen partner in 1998, was formerly a partner and president of Fortress Investment Group, LLC., and served on the Federal Reserve Bank of New York's Investment Advisory Committee on Financial Markets. Before starting his career, he was a successful college wrestler at Princeton University and served as a helicopter pilot in the National Guard. Michael is an outspoken philanthropist on criminal justice reform, serving as Governing Board Chair of The Bail Project and was an early investor in Compass Pathways, a mental health care company specializing in psychedelic therapy. We dive deep into the lessons learned from Mike's experiences with various business ventures, dare to broach the topic of normalizing psychedelic therapy, and Mike offers his expertise on how to get started in Bitcoin. Looking for thought provoking ideas from a business leader? This one's for you. Dan discusses the healing benefits of ayahuasca & plant medicine & his entrepreneurial journey in the plant medicine industry. He talks with top minds like Aubrey Marcus, Dorian Yates, Dennis McKenna, & Patrick Bet-David. “No one can have your psychedelic experience for you; you just have to screw your courage up & raise the cup to your lips & face what's in there.” - Dennis McKenna on psychedelics & plant medicine “Ayahuasca is a symbiotic ally of the human species.” - Dennis McKenna on ayahuasca & plant medicine “Ayahuasca is changing global environmental consciousness.” - Dennis McKenna on ayahuasca & plant medicine “Life itself is a drug experience.” - Dennis McKenna on psychedelics & plant medicine “Psychedelics are not suppressed because they are dangerous to users; they're suppressed because they provoke unconventional thought.” - Dennis McKenna on psychedelics & plant medicine “We never feel completely ready for life's big decisions; but in taking the leap, we push ourselves to the next level.” - Patrick Bet-David on entrepreneurship “You're going to use experiences to become either bitter or better.” - Patrick Bet-David on entrepreneurship “If you always make the right decision, the safe decision, the one most people make, you will be the same as everyone else.” - Patrick Bet-David “The bigger the vision you have, the more important it is to think on what type of a team you're going to put around you." - Patrick Bet-David on entrepreneurship “If you can walk, talk, hear or see, you have everything it takes to do something big with your life.” - Patrick Bet-David “Plant medicines like ayahuasca ask us to connect to all parts of ourselves.” - Dorian Yates on ayahuasca & plant medicine “The first time, mother ayahuasca couldn't work with me. She told me I was too toxic & to stop poisoning myself & come back later.” - Dorian Yates on ayahuasca & plant medicine “The plant knows who she wants to heal each time.” - Dorian Yates on ayahuasca & plant medicine “The people who do ayahuasca are bonded together forever, like a brotherhood.” - Dorian Yates on ayahuasca ceremonies “With good practice, plant medicines can play a key role in the healing of collective suffering on the planet.” - Aubrey Marcus on ayahuasca & plant medicine “You're not rewarded for the comfortable choice.” - Aubrey Marcus on ayahuasca & plant medicine “Know the plants, know yourself, be honest, & decide the terms of your relationship with them.” - Aubrey Marcus on ayahuasca & plant medicine _____________________ As always this episode is brought to you by Soltara Healing Center.

As work stress mounted, she found herself with chronic back pain, insomnia, migraines, and depression that made her determined to regain her emotional and physical health.

Unconfirmed: Insights and Analysis From the Top Minds in Crypto
Caitlin Long, who’s working on a book about Wall Street and crypto assets and is the cofounder of the Wyoming Blockchain Coalition, discusses the significance of the creation of Bakkt, a new federally regulated market for Bitcoin, by ICE, Microsoft, Starbucks and investment firms Fortress Investment Group, Eagle Seven, and Susquehanna International Group.

Today's guest is Suki Sohn. She is a transformational and leadership coach that started her journey over a decade ago after her divorce left her physically and emotionally depleted. She shares her story in such a beautiful and vulnerable way that I know you guys will connect with it. She is the author of Happily Ever After: 8 Principles from Ancient Esoteric Traditions and Neuroscience to Healing a Broken Heart. Her message is so relevant today. At the beginning of Suki’s journey she found herself with chronic back pain, insomnia, migraines, and depression. After MRIs, CT scans, and Western medical approaches didn’t provide long term solutions, she turned to holistic mind-body-spirit practices. She began to study many esoteric and spiritual paths and became in tune with the subtle energies that influence our daily lives. Suki now uses various timeless energy modalities to help clients reclaim and optimize their emotional, mental, and physical well-being. Prior to Suki’s coaching journey, she worked in finance and media with Fortune 100 companies such as the Walt Disney Company, News Corporation, Lehman Brothers, and Fortress Investment Group. She lives in Irvington, NY with her husband John O'Connor and two sons. In this episode, Suki shares her journey of finding her true self and healing her heart. This is a great time for all of us to learn how to heal because in some way we all have a broken heart. You can find Suki here: Suki SohnSuki Sohn on FacebookContact@SukiSohn.comHappily Ever After: 8 Principles from Ancient Esoteric Traditions and Neuroscience to Healing a Broken HeartSuki Sohn on Twitter @sukinycSuki Sohn on LinkedInSuki Sohn on Instagram @SukiSohn Show Notes [06:33] Suki loves being in nature, trees, her husband, her children, and working with her clients. She is inspired by all of the joy that can be found in life. [07:54] The importance of gaining perspective and how one person can be grateful for an experience whereas another person can be miserable from the same experience. [08:33] How by doing the really deep work, we are able to actually come through and see the beauty in all experiences. [08:56] Suki had a lot of WTF moments in her life. She began with a cool job working for Disney and had a hunky husband and a new baby boy. Yet, there were some relationship issues that they were pretending weren't there. Then she discovered that her husband was having an affair. [10:03] How after this discovery, everything seemed meaningless to Suki. Suki and her husband went to couples counseling for about a year, but she discovered that her husband never stopped seeing the other woman. [10:53] At the time Suki was living in Hong Kong, but quit her job and took her baby and moved to New York. How everything that matters suddenly doesn't matter anymore. [11:52] Suki felt like she had lost her identity. This was not only the obliteration of her dreams but also of who she was. [12:37] She wondered who she was and what was next for her? [13:08] She began dating with the intention of just having fun. She started dating which ended up being a three-year-long relationship that ended in infidelity, and she got pregnant towards the end of the relationship. [14:19] Suki had very hard time and terminated the pregnancy. She felt like she had hit rock bottom. [15:40] She didn't have a spiritual practice and had no perspective on what was going on. [16:10] How the catalyst of her journey began with trying to find a reason for all of these experiences. [16:21] Suki had a couple glimpses of hope. She looked out into the stars and felt that everything would be okay. She also took a trip to Sedona and sat in meditation and said a prayer of hope and dreams and was immediately greeted with a gush of wind in her face. [18:26] Kristy shares a moment when she was outside in the warmth of the sun and something just told her that things would be okay. Following and being open to these moments. [19:23] Being vulnerable enough to hear the presence of the divine. [20:02] Suki became open to learning about self-help and spirituality after the Sedona trip. It was the beginning of trying to figure out the unseen world. She dabbled in everything and gathered certificate after certificate. [21:37] How all of these events told Suki where her soul needed to go. [23:33] Suki started losing hope and thought she may never find love again. She continued doing the inner work she needed. She met her husband during this time, but they didn't get married for two years. [24:41] Do we really know what we want? We think we know, but is that what we really want. Find things that will make you happy like compassion, understanding and a willingness to grow. Find a Mr. Right that comes from the soul. [26:17] Attraction, lust, and passionate sex can trick us into thinking something is love that can last. If the foundation is shaky things won't last. [27:00] Ask what kind of person do you want holding your hand 50 years from now. [27:26] In order to attract the right relationship, you have to take your own garbage out first. [28:18] Finding negative belief patterns that bring about the wrong type of person and ghosts from the past. We get what we believe. We find what we seek. [29:31] Meditation and muscle testing can be used to get into the subconscious mind. Finding beliefs buried in the subconscious. [32:28] How Suki had to let go of her critical judgments went she met her current husband. She had to surrender to how her soul felt. [33:33] Suki went on a vision quest where she went into the desert fasting to find her gifts. It rained for three days straight. On the third day, the sun broke through and she heard the words shadow cat moon dancer. This means to help people through the dark night of their soul. [35:31] Your life purpose is not something that you can achieve in the next year. It's up to us to manifest our gifts. [37:00] How Suki is living out her spiritual name Shadow Cat Moon Dancer. [38:55] Defining who we really are through our beliefs. Getting to know your true beliefs at the deepest soul level. [40:26] How many women don't have clear boundaries. Boundaries come from knowing what your contribution to society is. Being grounded and having self-respect and self-esteem. [42:12] How coaching is a great way to guide people in this quest. Suki believes that a great coach is a guide who allows the client to unfold. [44:22] Having a partner who is always willing to grow and evolve and working at it constantly. [45:15] Work on yourself first. If you transform and change and approach things with gentle femininity your partner will take notice. [50:41] Suki aims to be a lighthouse that helps people through the dark night of their soul.

Download the action plan from this episode here: http://jimharshawjr.com/action/ Today I bring you Mike Novogratz. Mike is the recently retired principal and director of Fortress Investment Group and was ranked by as a billionaire by Forbes in 2007 and 2008. Prior to Fortress, he was a partner at Goldman Sachs for 11 years. He's a graduate of Princeton University where he was captain of the wrestling team and a 2x NCAA qualifier. He's the chair of Beat the Streets Wrestling, one of the best things going for the sport of wrestling, in my opinion. He's a supporter of USA Wrestling and was named the 2010 USA Wrestling Man of the Year and he's been inducted into the National Wrestling Hall of Fame. Let's connect: Website | Facebook | Twitter About Your Host Jim Harshaw My name is Jim Harshaw. And I know where you’re at. You’re working hard and qualified for what you do but you aren’t getting what you want. You have plans on getting to the C-suite or launching a business but ultimate success seems as far away today as ever. You’re at the right place because you can get there from here. And I can help. Who I Am I’m a speaker, coach and former Division I All American wrestler that helps motivated former athletes reach their full potential by getting clarity on their what they really want and taking aggressive action to lead their ideal life not just despite their prior failures but because of them. I’m a husband and father of four. And I’m a serial entrepreneur. I’ve launched multiple successful businesses as well as the obligatory failed one. I’ve been the executive director of a non-profit and have raised millions of dollars. I’ve worked in sales. I’ve even been a Division I head coach. While I was born in a blue-collar home I have spent my life surrounded by Olympians, CEO’s and millionaires. Jim Rohn said, “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.” I’ve been lucky. I’ve learned the habits of successful people and guess what. You’re just like them. I know because I know your type. You’re programmed for hard work, which is a prerequisite for success, but you’ve never been shown how to use what you know to create the life you want with the tools you have. I will show you how. Why You are Here You've worked hard to achieve greatness. You’ve set goals and maybe even set records. You’ve definitely failed and you’ve at some point found yourself questioning if you were on the right track. You need to understand this: You are far more prepared to succeed than those who’ve not tried, competed, struggled and overcome like you have. That’s the value of your education as someone who aims high. You are prepared to be as successful as your wildest dreams will allow. Here I will teach you, with the help of brilliant minds that have been shaped by failure, struggle and adversity, to be who you want to be. I sense that you want this because you have read this far.

Mike Novogratz, the Principal and Director of Fortress Investment Group has a lot of money. This guy's net worth is in the billions, that's with a b. But Novogratz has remained close to the sport he loves.As a state high school runner-up in Virginia, he went on to Princeton and eventually found his way into the starting lineup for the Tiger wrestling squad. But Novogratz would take his tenacity he learned from wrestling to Wall Street where he would eventually land at one of the top hedge funds in the country.A fixture on business-related television networks, Novogratz rolls with the bears and the bulls, but he's still a Tiger wrestler. Novogratz sits as the Chairman of the Board for Beat The Streets New York and has been instrumental in building up the annual BTS Gala events into wrestling spectacles, drawing national attention in busy Manhattan.Novogratz talks about the genesis of the Beat The Streets event, his role as Team Leader for the U.S. Freestyle team from 2008-2012 and what he loves the most about wrestling and wrestling people. It's all in Episode 61 of the Short Time Wrestling Podcast.The Short Time Wrestling Podcast is presented by FlipsWrestling.
Now here's something the United States, Russia, and Iran can all agree on: Wrestling should stay in the Olympics. After the International Olympic Committee announced last month that the sport will likely be dropped after 2016, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad both pledged to fight to keep wrestling in the Olympics. That cause is one Americans are sympathetic to as well — even on Wall Street. Mike Novogratz, president of Fortress Investment Group, wrestled for Princeton as an undergraduate. Now he's leading the campaign to save the sport's place in the Olympics.
Fortress Investment Group principal's views on financial reform and commodity inflation in a global market.
U.S. stock markets are in a tizzy. The Dow Jones Industrial Average plunged 311 points on July 26 and most media companies interpreted this to mean the end of the buyout boom. Buyout firms such as the Fortress Investment Group and the Blackstone Group were hit especially hard. How long will the turmoil continue? Could the trouble spread overseas to international markets? What is the right strategy for investors in these times? In an update to the podcast that Knowledge at Wharton published on July 25 Wharton finance professor Jeremy Siegel offers his insights on these questions. In the earlier podcast he discussed the continuing crisis involving sub-prime housing loans and other issues -- including economic growth in China and the impact of the strong Indian rupee -- with Knowledge at Wharton.
