Bluesky, a social media platform rivaling Elon Musk's X, is reportedly approaching a valuation of $700 million.
What Happened: Bluesky is nearing a $700 million valuation in a new funding round led by Bain Capital Ventures, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/x-competitor-bluesky-valuation-new-funding-round-2025-1">reported</a> Business Insider, citing three sources familiar with the deal.
The platform's interface resembles a simplified version of X, positioning itself as a safer, more idealistic alternative. Last year, Bluesky introduced several new features, such as hashtags, direct messaging, video sharing, and trending topics.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/technicals/24/12/42509206/soundhound-ai-soars-over-700-short-squeeze-potential-has-traders-talking?itm_source=parsely-api">SoundHound AI Soars 700%: Short Squeeze Potential Has Traders Talking</a>
The new funding will push Bluesky to find a profitable model. The platform currently operates without ads. In 2023, Bluesky stated its intention to avoid relying on advertising to support its business.
Why It Matters: The surge in Bluesky&#8217;s user base is part of a broader trend of users migrating from X, formerly Twitter to alternative platforms, following Donald Trump&#8217;s presidential victory.
Bluesky has seen its user base skyrocket from 3 million to 25.9 million in 2024.
Subscribe to the <a href="https://bztechtrends.beehiiv.com/subscribe">Benzinga Tech Trends newsletter</a> to get all the latest tech developments delivered to your inbox.
Its growth is also marked by the popularity of high-profile accounts, such as Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), who became the first user to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/12/42421291/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-aoc-hits-1-million-followers-with-top-bluesky-account-mark-cuban-gains-popularity-jack-dorsey-notably-absent">surpass 1 million followers</a> on the platform.
This trend is also highlighted by the success of Meta Platforms Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) Threads, which last month reached <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/12/42525426/threads-reaches-100-million-daily-active-users-as-meta-capitalizes-on-exodus-from-elon-musks-x-to-alternative-platforms">100 million daily active users</a>.
Looking ahead, Bluesky is planning to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42608667/bluesky-plans-to-build-its-own-payment-platform-and-it-could-take-12-months-says-coo-rose-wang-subscriptions-to-launch-early-next-year">introduce a payment platform</a> and subscription services, as noted by COO Rose Wang in a December interview.
This move aims to align the company&#8217;s financial incentives with those of its users, creators, and developers, potentially providing a sustainable revenue model.

Pony.ai Announced That It Plans To Provide Driverless Transportation Services At The Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA), One Of The World's Busiest Airports

Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) CEO Satya Nadella showcased the company&#8217;s artificial intelligence initiatives in Indian agriculture, highlighting a broader push into AI technology <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42801720/microsoft-to-invest-80-billion-in-ai-data-centers-for-fiscal-2025">backed by an $80 billion investment planned for fiscal 2025</a>.
What Happened: During a visit to the Agricultural Development Trust, Baramati in Maharashtra, India, Nadella observed how local farmers are leveraging Microsoft&#8217;s AI tools to optimize crop yields and combat climate challenges. 
The initiative, part of Microsoft&#8217;s &#8220;Farm of the Future&#8221; project, has shown promising early results with sugar cane yields increasing 30-40% and sucrose content rising 20%.
&#8220;It was great to meet the team at ADT Baramati today, who are using our AI tools to help farmers grow healthier, more sustainable harvests,&#8221; Nadella wrote on X.

The agricultural initiative utilizes Microsoft&#8217;s Azure Data Manager for Agriculture platform, combining data from weather stations, soil sensors, and satellite imagery to provide farmers with actionable insights through a mobile app called Agripilot.ai.
Why It Matters: This development aligns with Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates&#8217; vision for AI in agriculture. Gates, who owns 275,000 acres of farmland in the United States, has been advocating for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/07/39797332/bill-gates-owns-275-000-acres-of-u-s-farmland-his-answer-to-why-hes-buying-so-much-of-it-might-surpr">AI adoption in farming practices</a>.
During a recent visit to India, Gates praised the country&#8217;s innovation in digital infrastructure and its application in agriculture, particularly noting how AI and chatbots are delivering personalized farming <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/content/37356117/bill-gates-explores-indias-digital-infrastructure-in-odisha-champions-use-of-ai-in-agriculture">advice to 7.5 million registered farmers</a>.
Microsoft&#8217;s agricultural AI initiative comes as the company plans to invest <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42801720/microsoft-to-invest-80-billion-in-ai-data-centers-for-fiscal-2025">approximately $80 billion in AI data centers</a> during fiscal 2025, with more than half allocated to the United States. 
The investment reflects Microsoft&#8217;s aggressive expansion in AI infrastructure, as the company reported its AI business segment is approaching $10 billion in annual revenue.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella Draws Attention To AI-Powered Agriculture For 'Healthier, More Sustainable Harvests' Amid $80 Billion Investment Push

Anthropic, the AI startup behind &#8220;Claude&#8221; backed by Jeff Bezos, is reportedly in advanced discussions to secure $2 billion in funding. This deal could elevate its valuation to $60 billion, positioning it among the top five most valuable U.S. startups.
What Happened: The funding round is reportedly led by&nbsp;Lightspeed Venture Partners, according to sources familiar with the matter. This valuation includes the anticipated $2 billion from the current fundraising efforts. Anthropic&#8217;s valuation last year was $18 billion, led by&nbsp;Menlo Ventures, The Wall Street Journal&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/ai-startup-anthropic-raising-funding-valuing-it-at-60-billion-19d0605a">reported</a> on Wednesday. 
The AI sector has seen a surge in investment activities, with companies like&nbsp;OpenAI&nbsp;and&nbsp;Elon Musk's xAI&nbsp;raising substantial funds. Investors are optimistic about generative AI&#8217;s potential, despite the financial losses many AI startups face due to high operational costs and fierce competition.
Amazon.com Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) has been a significant backer of Anthropic, committing $4 billion in November. This investment, structured as a convertible note, will convert to equity at the current valuation. Anthropic&#8217;s annualized revenue has reached approximately $875 million, primarily from business sales.
Why It Matters: Anthropic&#8217;s latest fundraising efforts come on the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/41871055/jeff-bezos-backed-anthropic-ai-startup-to-partner-with-palantir-and-aws-for-us-defense-following-meta-and-microsoft">heels of its strategic partnership</a> with&nbsp;Amazon Web Services and Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>). This collaboration aims to provide its Claude A.I. models to U.S. defense and intelligence agencies. The partnership underscores a growing trend where AI companies are increasingly aligning with government sectors to leverage their technologies for national security purposes.
This move positions Anthropic as a more safety-conscious alternative to competitors like Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>)-backed OpenAI.
Meanwhile, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman revealed that the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42810114/openai-ceo-sam-altman-reveals-company-struggling-with-chatgpt-pro-losses">company is operating at a loss on its $200-per-month</a> ChatGPT Pro subscription plan. While the plan was introduced to generate revenue, it hasn't met profit expectations due to higher-than-anticipated usage.

Leading Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) miners in the U.S. are accumulating BTC as a buffer against growing competition and narrowing profit margins.
What Happened: Firms including&nbsp;MARA Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MARA#NASDAQ">MARA</a>),&nbsp;Riot Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIOT#NASDAQ">RIOT</a>), and&nbsp;CleanSpark Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLSK#NASDAQ">CLSK</a>) have leveraged Bitcoin&#8217;s soaring price,&nbsp;which hit $100,000 last month,&nbsp;to raise over $3.7 billion since November, according to a Financial Times <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/0cfbe43c-7c2a-40bf-8bb7-92f58a9d2389">report </a>on Monday.
These funds have been utilized to fund Bitcoin purchases, often raised through <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42387102/mara-holdings-raises-850-million-in-0-convertible-notes-offering-a-40-premium-over-current-share-price">zero or near-zero coupon convertible notes.</a>
Following in the footsteps of MicroStrategy, MARA, the world&#8217;s biggest Bitcoin mining company, has pivoted toward a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/07/g39955751/mara-purchases-100-million-of-bitcoin" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">buy-and-hold strategy</a>, retaining all Bitcoin it mines and periodically making strategic open-market purchases.
Miners such as CleanSpark have also chosen to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/12/42558246/cleanspark-is-outpacing-bitcoin-mining-peers-wednesday-whats-going-on">retain the majority of the Bitcoin mined</a> in recent months.
On-chain data also reflected the behavioral shift. The number of Bitcoins transferred from miner wallets to exchanges fell sharply in the last quarter, coinciding with the cryptocurrency&#8217;s uptrend, according to blockchain analytics firm CryptoQuant.

MARA was the second-largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, with a stash of 44,893 BTCs, worth $4.3 billion, with Riot bagging the third spot with 17,722 BTCs valued at $1.69 billion, <a href="https://bitcointreasuries.net/">according </a>to bitcointreasuries.net.

Why It Matters: This strategy is a significant shift in the industry&#8217;s perspective, which has been grappling for&nbsp;the past eight months after&nbsp;the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/what-is-bitcoin-halving">reward for mining Bitcoin halved</a>.
Donald Trump&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/09/41081939/trump-wants-us-to-be-bitcoin-mining-capital-of-the-world-core-scientifics-move-to-buy-chip">pledge</a> that Bitcoin would be &#8220;mined,&nbsp;minted, and made in the U.S.&#8221; has ignited enthusiasm, with MARA CEO Fred Thiel attributing recent momentum to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42191142/bitcoin-is-being-sold-into-a-market-with-ample-demand-from-institutions-says-marathon-ceo-fred-thiel">supportive stance</a> of the president-elect.
The rush to purchase&nbsp;more Bitcoin is also a defensive tactic against potential&nbsp;financial pressure from high electricity costs.
Mining costs are on the rise. A <a href="https://coinshares.com/corp/resources/research/bitcoin-mining-report-q3-2024/">report </a>by leading investment firm CoinShares estimated the average cost to produce one Bitcoin in the third quarter of 2024 at $55,950, indicating a 13% increase quarter over quarter. One Bitcoin was trading at $95,995.51 as of this writing.
Additionally, hash rate, the computation power required to solve complex puzzles and create new Bitcoins, hit a new all-<a href="https://cryptoquant.com/asset/btc/chart/network-stats/hashrate?window=DAY&amp;sma=0&amp;ema=0_30&amp;priceScale=log&amp;metricScale=linear&amp;chartStyle=line">time high last week</a>, threatening to drive up expenses even more.
Price Action: Shares of MARA closed 7.20% lower at $19.07 on Tuesday, while RIOT stock fell 3.72% to $12.41. CleanSpark shares closed down 6.30% at $10.71, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has made a bold prediction regarding the development of artificial general intelligence (AGI), suggesting it will occur during Donald Trump&#8217;s presidency.&nbsp;
What Happened: In an interview with Bloomberg, Altman said that while he doesn't support everything Trump says or thinks, "I do support the United States of America."
Altman, who <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/24/12/42485193/sam-altman-to-donate-1m-to-trumps-inauguration-fund-following-zuckerberg-bezos-eager-to-support">contributed $1 million</a> to Trump&#8217;s inaugural fund, also stated that his donation was not an act of allegiance but a demonstration of support for the country.

He also stressed the critical nature of AGI development during this period. "I think AGI will probably get developed during this president's term, and getting that right seems really important."
The OpenAI CEO also criticized the CHIPS Act, acknowledging it as a step forward but not as effective as expected. "I don't think the Chips Act has been as effective as any of us hoped."

Why It Matters: During his campaign, Trump strongly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42420201/trumps-return-threatens-billions-in-us-chip-investment-from-taiwan-samsung">criticized the CHIPS Act</a>, a law passed two years earlier to support domestic manufacturing of semiconductor chips, which are predominantly produced abroad.
Ahead of Trump taking office, the Joe Biden administration is moving quickly to allocate CHIPS funds.
However, in November 2024, it was reported that Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>), the primary recipient of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42157390/intels-federal-chips-grant-shrinks-below-8b-as-biden-administration-recalibrates-chips-act-funding-report">CHIPS Act funding</a>, is expected to receive under $8 billion, a decrease from the $8.5 billion originally announced.
Meanwhile, OpenAI has been making headlines with its impressive growth, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41149788/openai-valuation-soars-to-157b-in-latest-funding-round">securing $6.6 billion last year</a> in funding at a valuation of $157 billion. This funding is intended to boost AI research and expand computing capabilities.
For people who want to invest in OpenAI, Cathie-Wood's ARK Venture Fund offers a unique investment opportunity. This actively managed fund includes both public and private companies. Currently, OpenAI ranks as the fund&#8217;s fourth-largest position, holding 4.24%.
Destiny Tech 100 Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DXYZ#NYSE">DXYZ</a>) is another platform where OpenAI currently holds the fourth position with 5.1%, following SpaceX, Revolut, and Axiom Space.
Investors can also consider making an indirect investment through Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>). Microsoft has so far invested <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42679515/microsoft-invested-nearly-14-billion-in-openai-but-now-its-reducing-its-dependence-on-the-chatgpt-pa">about $14 billion</a> in OpenAI, giving it a 49% stake in the company.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman Predicts AGI Will Arrive During The Trump Presidency, Says CHIPS Act Not Effective Enough

Exxon Mobil Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XOM#NYSE">XOM</a>) filed a federal lawsuit Monday against California Attorney General Rob Bonta and environmental groups, alleging defamation of its advanced plastics recycling initiatives, as the oil giant pushes forward with significant investments in recycling technology.
What Happened: Filed in Beaumont, Texas, the lawsuit claims Bonta acted in concert with law firm Cotchett, Pitre &amp; McCarthy, which has connections to Australian billionaire Andrew Forrest&#8217;s Minderoo Foundation. The foundation controls Fortescue, a competitor in low-carbon solutions, Reuters reported.
The legal action comes as Exxon <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42117222/exxonmobil-aims-high-with-200-million-investment-in-cutting-edge-plastic-recycling">advances a $200 million expansion</a> of its advanced recycling capabilities in Texas. The technology breaks down hard-to-recycle plastics at the molecular level for reuse, part of the company&#8217;s broader sustainability strategy.
&#8220;Defendants are repeatedly and publicly attacking ExxonMobil with false accusations of being a &#8216;liar&#8217; and declarations that advanced recycling is a &#8216;myth&#8217; and a &#8216;sham,'&#8221; Exxon stated in its complaint, seeking undisclosed damages and retractions.
Why It Matters: The California Department of Justice defended its position, calling the lawsuit &#8220;another attempt from ExxonMobil to deflect attention from its own unlawful deception.&#8221; This follows Bonta&#8217;s 2023 lawsuit against Exxon over alleged decades-long deception about recycling limitations.
The legal battle unfolds as Exxon pursues <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42444546/2030-roadmap-exxonmobil-to-achieve-54m-barrelsday-production-targets-20-billion-earnings-boost">ambitious growth targets</a>, including a $20 billion earnings boost by 2030 and $30 billion in lower-emissions investments. The company recently announced plans for $20 billion in annual share repurchases for 2025-2026, supported by projected surplus cash of $165 billion.
Wall Street maintains a positive outlook on Exxon, with analysts setting an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/XOM/analyst-ratings">average price target</a> of $127.96, representing a potential upside from current trading levels of around $108. 
The company trades at a price-to-earnings ratio of 13.54 and offers a dividend yield of 3.64%, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Exxon Mobil Sues California AG Over Defamation Of Recycling Efforts, Citing Ties To Competitors

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed an increase in the overall fear level, while the index remained in the &#8220;Fear&#8221; zone on Tuesday.
U.S. stocks settled lower on Tuesday, with the S&amp;P 500 falling more than 1% during the session amid a decline in major tech stocks.
NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) shares dipped 6.2% on Tuesday after hitting a record high level. Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) shares fell over 4% after BofA Securities downgraded the stock from Buy to Neutral, while Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) lost nearly 2% during the session.
On the economic data front, the U.S. trade deficit increased to $78.2 billion in November versus a revised $73.6 billion gap in the previous month and is in line with market estimates. Imports increased 3.4% to $351.6 billion, while exports rose 2.7% to $273.4 billion.
Most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a negative note, with consumer discretionary, communication services, and information technology stocks recording the biggest losses on Tuesday. However, energy and health care stocks bucked the overall market trend, closing the session higher.

At a current reading of 35.7, the index remained in the &#8220;Fear&#8221; zone on Tuesday, versus a prior reading of 37.8.
What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.
