Mark Zuckerberg's wrist stole the scene from his own product launch in June when the Meta Platforms Inc. chief previewed new Oakley-Meta smart <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/large-cap/25/06/45987099/meta-teams-up-with-oakley-prada-for-next-gen-ai-smart-glasses">glasses</a> on Instagram.
What Happened: Zoom-in sleuths at Professional Watches <a href="https://professionalwatches.com/zuckerberg-wears-de-bethune-at-oakley-meta-glasses-launch/">spotted</a> a De Bethune DB28xs "Purple Rain," a 39-millimeter titanium timepiece that debuted last year at $99,000 and was limited to just 25 pieces.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="587" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/29090358/image-452-1024x587.png" alt="" class="wp-image-1005173" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/29090358/image-452-1024x587.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/29090358/image-452-300x172.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/29090358/image-452-768x440.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/29090358/image-452-1536x880.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/29090358/image-452-2048x1173.png 2048w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
The headline shade isn't paint. De Bethune says the purple comes from thermal oxidation. Titanium is heated to more than 700 degrees Celsius, forming an oxide layer that refracts light and locks in a spectrum that shifts between aubergine and amethyst. "Mastering the art of thermal oxidation of metals, De Bethune explores color nuances born from the heat released by the chemical reactions of heated titanium," the Swiss atelier explains.

Inside the ultra-slim case beats the hand-wound Calibre DB2005, good for a six-day power reserve and framed by the brand's trademark floating "delta" bridge. Collectors note the model's compact size, which is just 7.4 mm thick, makes it a rare blend of avant-garde design and everyday wearability.
Why It Matters: Zuckerberg's embrace of boutique haute horology has accelerated over the past year. In September, he wore a De Bethune DB25 Starry Varius, an $80,000 rose-gold cosmic-dial piece, while taping the "Acquired" tech-podcast in San Francisco.
In January, he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/01/43084473/mark-zuckerbergs-900k-hand-made-1-watch-steals-the-spotlight-as-meta-ends-u-s-fact-checking-partnerships">flashed an eye-watering</a> Greubel Forsey Hand Made 1, which retails for $895,500 and was built almost entirely by manual tools, in a Meta video that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/43012201/once-you-get-started-you-cant-stop-wearing-a-900000-watch-kevin-oleary-admits-he-and-mark-zuckerberg-share-a-horrible-disease">even caught investor Kevin O'Leary's attention</a>. The billionaire's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/25/05/45336257/mark-zuckerbergs-exquisite-watch-collection-from-affordable-casio-to-luxurious-141400-patek-philippe-he-has-it-all">growing collection</a> runs from a humble $120 Casio G-Shock to Rolex, Patek Philippe and F.P. Journe pieces alongside the six-figure independents.
For Zuckerberg, the &#8216;Purple Rain&#8217; also echoes his first brush with serious timepieces last year, when he and wife Priscilla Chan were filmed admiring Anant Ambani's million-dollar Richard Mille at a pre-wedding party.

Mark Zuckerberg Wore $99,000 Purple Watch During A Meta Product Launch And This How It Gets Its Vibrant Color

Healthcare company, UnitedHealth Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNH#NYSE">UNH</a>), says that it will drop 600,000 Medicare Advantage members and launch a sweeping operational overhaul after being blindsided by $6.5 billion in unanticipated medical costs.
What Happened: During its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/earnings/25/07/46688163/unitedhealth-misses-q2-mark-but-vows-a-healthier-2026">second-quarter earnings</a> call on Tuesday, UnitedHealthcare&#8217;s CEO, Tim Noel, said, &#8220;Our pricing assumptions were well short of actual medical costs.&#8221;
&#8220;We know these are serious challenges. We are humbled by them,&#8221; Noel says. As the company now expects the full-year Medicare Advantage trend, which refers to the year-over-year increase in healthcare costs per member, to be approximately 7.5%, well above the 5% trend it had assumed when setting 2025 bids.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/07/46624499/centene-gears-up-for-q2-print-here-are-the-recent-forecast-changes-from-wall-streets-most-accurate-analysts">Centene Gears Up For Q2 Print; Here Are The Recent Forecast Changes From Wall Street&#8217;s Most Accurate Analysts</a>
Under Medicare Advantage, private insurers such as UnitedHealth get paid a fixed amount by the U.S. Government, per enrollee, to manage their care. 
&#8220;Physician and outpatient care together represent 70% of the pressure year to date,&#8221; Noel said. &#8220;In short, most encounters are intensifying in services and costing more.&#8221;
The decision to exit underperforming plans, which affect more than 600,000 members, is centered around &#8220;less managed products such as PPO (Preferred Provider Organization) offerings,&#8221; according to Noel. He added that UnitedHealth has made &#8220;significant adjustments to benefits&#8221; in response to margin compression.
Executive Chairman, Stephen Hemsley, who recently returned to the top role, said the company is undergoing a fundamental reset. He says, &#8220;We have embarked on a real cultural shift in our relationship with regulators and all external stakeholders.&#8221;
Hemsleys says they &#8220;intend to infuse this entire enterprise with an AI-first orientation,&#8221; as the company reaffirmed its plans to deliver nearly $1 billion in cost reductions by 2026, while targeting a return to earnings growth starting in 2027.
Why It Matters: UnitedHealth Group has had a rough year in 2025, with the stock down 48% year-to-date, amid a slew of challenges in recent months.
It began with the assassination of its former CEO, Brian Thompson, in December 2024, by Luigi Mangione, which later became the subject of an investor lawsuit that alleges the company downplayed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/25/05/45305392/unitedhealth-investors-claim-company-hid-profit-impact-of-ceos-murder">the potential impact</a> of this murder on its performance.
In May, the stock plunged again due to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45373368/unitedhealth-stock-plunges-names-new-ceo-suspends-2025-guidance">abrupt resignation</a> of the company&#8217;s CEO, Andrew Witty, with former CEO, Hemsley, succeeding him. The company also suspended its guidance for 2025 at the same time, citing continued acceleration in care activity.
Last week, the company announced that it was cooperating with the U.S. Department of Justice&#8217;s criminal healthcare fraud unit, which has brought UnitedHealth&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/25/07/46605691/unitedhealth-under-federal-scrutiny-reaffirms-integrity-of-its-medicare-operations">Medicare billing practices</a> into scrutiny.
The company released its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/earnings/25/07/46688163/unitedhealth-misses-q2-mark-but-vows-a-healthier-2026">second-quarter results</a> on Tuesday, reporting $111.62 billion in revenue, up 13% year-over-year, but missing consensus estimates of $111.69 billion. It posted a profit of $4.08, down from $6.80 a year ago, and missing the consensus of $4.95.
Price Action: Shares of UnitedHealth Group were down 7.46% on Tuesday, closing at $261.07, but are up 0.72% after hours.

Unitedhealth, Starbucks, Novo Nordisk, UPS And Meta: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

On Tuesday, Opera Ltd (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OPRA#NASDAQ">OPRA</a>) filed a formal complaint with Brazil's antitrust regulator, alleging Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) gives its Edge browser an unfair advantage on Windows devices at the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38178108/apple-google-and-microsoft-suffer-as-small-browsers-gain-market-share-after-this-new-law-made-it-eas">expense of rivals</a>.
What Happened: Norwegian browser developer Opera submitted a complaint to Brazil's Administrative Council for Economic Defense (CADE), accusing Microsoft of anti-competitive behavior, reported Reuters.
The company argued this practice blocks rivals like Opera from equal access and market opportunities.
"Microsoft thwarts browser competition on Windows at every turn," said Opera General Counsel Aaron McParlan. "First, browsers like Opera are locked out of important preinstallation opportunities. And then Microsoft frustrates users' ability to download and use alternative browsers."
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46686037/nvidia-is-now-worth-twice-tesla-amd-palantir-and-intel-combined" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Nvidia Is Now Worth Twice Tesla, AMD, Palantir, And Intel Combined</a>
Opera also alleged that Microsoft incentivizes major PC manufacturers to pre-install Edge exclusively, and uses design tactics—referred to as dark patterns—to steer users away from switching browsers.
Microsoft did not immediately&nbsp;respond to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga's</a> request for comments.
Why It's Important: The complaint revives longstanding antitrust concerns over Microsoft's dominance in the browser space, dating back to its Internet Explorer era.
In 2013, the European Commission fined Microsoft €561 million ($648 million) for similar conduct, the report said.
Opera is the third-most-used desktop browser in Brazil, with 6.78% market share in June, trailing Microsoft Edge's 11.52% and Google Chrome's dominant 75%, according to StatCounter.
As of June 2025, Alphabet Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google Chrome remains the clear leader in the global browser market, commanding a 68.35% share, according to Statcounter GlobalStats.
Apple Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) Safari ranks a distant second with 16.25%, while Microsoft Edge holds 4.96%. Firefox captures 2.37% of the market, followed by Samsung Internet at 2.04% and Opera at 1.85%.
Microsoft is set to announce its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46696235/whats-going-on-with-microsoft-stock-tuesday-2">quarterly earnings on Wednesday</a>. Analysts are projecting earnings per share of $3.37 and revenue of $73.80 billion.
Price Action: On Tuesday, Microsoft shares inched up 0.014% during regular trading and rose another 0.23% after hours. In contrast, Opera shares fell 3.19% in regular trading but recovered slightly with a 0.55% gain after hours, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/register?utm_adType=bzprocontent&amp;utm_campaign=14daytrial&amp;utm_ad=0717">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Benzinga's Edge Stock Rankings indicate that MSFT continues to show strong momentum across short, medium and long-term timeframes, though its value rating remains comparatively low. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-4/#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">More performance insights are available here</a>.

Microsoft Is Frustrating The Ability Of Users To Switch Away From The Edge Browser, Alleges Opera In Brazil Anti-Trust Complaint

Cryptocurrency exchange,&nbsp;Kraken, is planning&nbsp;to raise $500 million in&nbsp;funding, a move that could push its valuation to $15 billion, according to a report published Tuesday.
What Happened: Kraken, America&#8217;s second-largest cryptocurrency trading platform,&nbsp;is preparing for a major funding round, tech and business-focused media company The Information <a href="https://www.theinformation.com/articles/krakens-15-billion-price-tag-dylan-fields-unusual-power">reported</a>, citing sources familiar with the matter.
A Kraken spokesperson declined to comment on the report.
The development follows a series of events that have shaped Kraken&#8217;s trajectory. In March, reports emerged that the company was planning an initial public offering as early as the first quarter of next year, capitalizing on improved regulatory conditions under the Trump administration. Notably, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44100314/sec-drops-lawsuit-against-crypto-exchange-kraken-ceo-calls-it-massive-win-bayc-nft-creator-yuga-labs-also-gets-reprieve">SEC dropped a lawsuit against</a> Karen earlier in the month. 
Earlier this month, the&nbsp;Justice Department <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/07/46549894/justice-department-drops-case-against-kraken-founder-jesse-powell">dropped a case</a> against Kraken&#8217;s founder, Jesse Powell. Federal prosecutors ended their investigation into Powell, nearly two years after FBI agents raided his home in a case unrelated to his crypto business.
The company&#8217;s revenue more than doubled in 2024, reaching $1.5 billion, with adjusted earnings of $380 million.
The cryptocurrency industry <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45999427/circle-internet-group-crcl-stock-soars-on-landmark-stablecoin-legislation">saw the bumper debut</a> of Circle Internet Group, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRCL#NYSE">CRCL</a>) on Wall Street in June, with the stock exploding 487% from its IPO price.
CRCL stock exhibited a low value score—a percentile-ranked composite metric that evaluates a stock&#8217;s relative worth by comparing its market price to fundamental measures— as of this writing.

Cathie Wood's $15M Crypto Bet: Sells Bitcoin King Block, Doubles Down On Ethereum Giant Bitmine Immersion

Uber Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) is piloting a long-requested safety feature that allows women riders to request female drivers — and vice versa — for the first time in the U.S., the company <a href="https://www.uber.com/newsroom/women-preferences/">announced</a> on Wednesday.
The feature, called ‘Women Preferences,' will debut in Detroit, Los Angeles, and San Francisco in the coming weeks. First introduced in Saudi Arabia in 2019, the option has already expanded to 40 countries, including India, Canada, Brazil, and Mexico.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How the Matching Works</h2>
Once enabled, the setting allows female riders to see a ‘women drivers' option when hailing a ride. Uber said the setting increases the likelihood of being matched with a female driver, although matches aren't guaranteed.
On the driver's side, female drivers can select ‘women rider preference,' allowing them to receive trip requests only from women. The setting is flexible and can be toggled off or on anytime. More than 100 million rides have been completed using the service globally, according to the company.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Push for Safety and Inclusion</h2>
The launch comes amid ongoing pressure on ride-hailing platforms to improve safety for both passengers and drivers.

According to Uber's latest U.S. safety <a href="https://uber.app.box.com/s/lea3xzb70bp2wxe3k3dgk2ghcyr687x3?uclick_id=46d3f8fb-cc10-450b-ba9e-c60261262b20">report</a>, there were 36 physical assault fatalities and 2,717 reported sexual assaults across 1.8 billion trips during 2021 and 2022. While these incidents account for a small fraction of all trips, those incidents — combined with ongoing concerns about physical assault — have pushed Uber to expand its suite of safety features in recent years, including audio/video recording and verified rider badges.
Sexual assault reports have declined significantly since Uber began publishing data in 2017. From 2017 to 2018, there were 5,981 reports of sexual assault. That number dropped to 2,717 between 2021 and 2022.
Uber and rival Lyft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYFT#NASDAQ">LYFT</a>) have struggled to increase the number of female drivers on their platforms. About 20% of Uber drivers in the U.S. are women, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/driving-uber-lyft-women-drivers-how-make-money-gig-economy-2023-12">according</a> to data provided by the company to Business Insider. The new feature could help close that gap by giving drivers more control over whom they pick up — a step that may help attract more women to the platform.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Broader Industry Shift</h2>
While Uber was the first to launch the feature globally, Lyft beat it to the U.S. market with its ‘Women+ Connect' tool, <a href="https://www.lyft.com/blog/posts/women-plus-connect">introduced</a> in 2023, a feature allowing women and nonbinary drivers and riders to prioritize matches with one another. Unlike Uber's version, Lyft doesn't guarantee these matches but prioritizes them when possible. Still, the company <a href="https://www.lyft.com/blog/posts/lyfts-popular-women-connect-feature-is-now-available-nationwide">said</a> 67% of eligible drivers have opted into the feature.&nbsp;
Across the US, women riders and drivers have told us they want the option to be matched with other women on trips. We've heard them—and now we're introducing new ways to give them even more control over how they ride and drive," Uber Vice President of Operations Camiel Irving said in a statement.
If the pilot sees high adoption, Uber said it may expand the feature nationally.

$1000 Invested In Vertiv Holdings 5 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

A woman from Tampa, Florida, called into &#8220;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TH3RACSxFAk">The Ramsey Show</a>&#8221; recently, looking for help with a family dispute that turned legal, bitter and deeply personal. Jamie explained that her mother-in-law, who lives just feet away in a tiny house built on their property, has threatened to sue her.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Decade-Long Tension Over A Gifted Property</h2>
In 2006, Jamie and her husband were gifted a piece of land by his parents. &#8220;We couldn&#8217;t afford to build on it at the time, so we saved and ended up building our house in 2012,&#8221; she said. Not long after, the in-laws asked if they could build a small home on the back of the same lot, having moved from upstate New York and struggling to keep up with their home and health needs.

</ul>
Jamie and her husband agreed. Her in-laws <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45210590/59-year-old-sold-her-518k-house-to-pay-off-debt-but-dave-ramsey-warns-shes-now-facing-a-major-problem-heading-into-retirement-without-a-home">sold their house</a> up north and used the proceeds to build a 900-square-foot, one-bedroom, one-bathroom accessory dwelling on the back acre. However, things went south fast when the family realized the new home was technically built on land Jamie and her husband owned outright.
&#8220;We kind of all realized at the same time that technically they did not own it,&#8221; she told Dave Ramsey. It caused a huge fight.
From there, it spiraled. For the last 10 years, the family has argued over who owns what. Jamie's father-in-law passed away three years ago, and since then, her mother-in-law has only grown more hostile.
&#8220;In January, there was a huge fight where she accused us of doing this on purpose for the sole purpose of taking her home. In essence, taking her money,&#8221; Jamie said. &#8220;She said, &#8216;You could take me out at any time.'&#8221;

The mother-in-law, now 80 and still in good health, has not spoken to the couple since. She recently had an attorney send Jamie a letter accusing them of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/management/25/07/46261134/the-781b-time-bomb-how-families-are-losing-fortunes-by-delaying-elder-disability-planning">elder exploitation</a> and demanding a lump-sum payment of $180,000.
Ramsey, stunned, asked, &#8220;She's not only not speaking to you — she's in your back window?&#8221;
&#8220;Oh yeah,&#8221; Jamie replied. &#8220;Eight feet away.&#8221;
Ramsey called the situation &#8220;bizarre&#8221; and said, &#8220;She's lost her marbles. And we can't find them. They're somewhere in the backyard near a tiny house.&#8221;
When Jamie mentioned she was considering paying out of guilt, Ramsey shut that idea down: &#8220;Morally, giving her anything? No. You didn't do anything wrong.&#8221;
He advised her to hire an attorney and tie the case up in court as long as needed. &#8220;Give somebody 10 grand and keep her tied up till she dies,&#8221; he said bluntly. &#8220;That's really all you can do here.&#8221;
The legal advice Jamie already received backed this up. As one lawyer told her, any value her mother-in-law added to the property has been offset by her living in it for a decade.
Ramsey concluded with a warning for listeners: &#8220;For the rest of you listening, don't do this. Ever.&#8221;

Trading platform company Robinhood Markets Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>) could highlight the growth of customers and cryptocurrency trading volume when the company reports second-quarter financial results <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">after market close Wednesday</a>.
HOOD stock: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/HOOD" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Track it now here.</a>
Here are the earnings estimates and key items to watch.
Earnings Estimates: Analysts expect Robinhood to report second-quarter revenue of $899 million, up from $682 million in last year's second quarter, according to data <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/register?utm_adType=bzprocontent&amp;utm_campaign=14daytrial&amp;utm_ad=0729">from Benzinga Pro.</a>
The company has beaten analyst estimates for revenue in two straight quarters and seven of the last 10 quarters overall.
Analysts expect Robinhood to report second-quarter earnings per share of 30 cents, up from 21 cents per share in last year's second quarter.

Key Items to Watch: Analysts have been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/HOOD/analyst-ratings">raising their price targets</a> for Robinhood stock ahead of the quarterly results.
The company has been reporting strong monthly figures in recent reports. In the May <a href="https://investors.robinhood.com/news-releases/news-release-details/robinhood-markets-inc-reports-may-2025-operating-data">update</a>, the company reported that crypto trading volume was $8.6 billion in April and $11.7 billion in May. Compare that to $7.1 billion in May of the previous year and you can see how strong this quarter's crypto revenue may be.
Robinhood's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/45118133/robinhood-q1-earnings-highlights-record-trading-volumes-transaction-based-revenues-up-77-gold-subscribers-up-90">first-quarter </a>cryptocurrency revenue was up 100% year-over-year. With Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) hitting all-time highs in the quarter and Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) gaining momentum, it's quite possible that Robinhood reports a great figure for crypto trading volume and crypto-related revenue.
Also, keep in mind that Robinhood closed its acquisition of Bitstamp on June 2, which means part of those operations will hit the quarterly results for the first time. Bitstamp has over 500,000 funded accounts.
The latest report also showed that Robinhood's funded customers were 25.9 million at the end of May. That would be up from 25.8 million at the end of the first quarter. Total platform assets were up 89% year-over-year in May at $255 billion.
Robinhood stock is already up over 100% year-to-date so expectations are likely high for the quarterly results and guidance. The recent report indicates that all company metrics are seeing growth, including customer accounts, assets and trading volume.
Other key areas investors will be watching include momentum for the company's<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44825414/robinhood-ceo-brushes-off-concerns-prediction-markets-are-gambling-they-have-societal-value-across-all-categories"> prediction markets</a> and its Robinhood Gold memberships and cards.
HOOD Price Action: Robinhood stock closed down 3.23% to $103.32 on Tuesday versus a 52-week trading range of $13.98 to $113.44. Robinhood stock is up more than 162% year-to-date in 2025.

U.S. President Donald Trump inaugurated a new golf course in Aberdeen, Scotland, on Tuesday ahead of the inaugural Nexo Championship, set to take place from August 7–10.
The event signals a growing intersection between traditional sports and digital finance, with crypto lender Nexo backing the tournament.
The launch ceremony at Trump International Golf Links featured Nexo co-founders Antoni Trenchev and Kosta Kantchev, alongside Scotland's First Minister John Swinney, several business and sports leaders.
The Nexo Championship will be the latest addition to the DP World Tour calendar, expanding the platform's presence in elite international golf.
The collaboration comes as Nexo seeks to re-enter the U.S. market, following Donald Trump Jr.'s April 2025 visit to Bulgaria, where Nexo hosted discussions about its return and growth strategy. Nexo had exited the U.S. market in December 2022 due to regulatory issues.

With this event, Nexo becomes an official partner of six golf tournaments in 2025, including the Genesis Scottish Open, BMW PGA Championship and the DP World Tour Championship in Dubai.
Its sponsorship of the Nexo Championship is part of a broader strategy to align crypto finance with mainstream global institutions.
In statements shared at the event, Trenchev emphasized the shared vision between the company and Trump on the role of innovation and crypto in the evolving U.S. economy. 
While details of Nexo's U.S. market activities remain limited, the company has recently sharpened its focus on building partnerships in regulated environments.
Scotland, which generates over $400 million annually from golf tourism, is expected to benefit from the new course and expanded events season. 
Local officials say the Nexo Championship could help extend the tourism calendar and attract international attention to the region.
The $11 billion crypto wealth platform is also leveraging its involvement in global golf to promote adoption of its digital finance products, which include crypto-backed loans, high-yield savings, and trading tools.

That was exactly the case in 2022, when the NBA legend met a Texas family with 11 kids and decided to change their lives in a matter of hours.
It started with dinner. Shaq surprised the Collins family, a couple and their 11 children, with an evening out at Babe's Chicken Dinner House. The next day? He casually took them to a Mercedes-Benz dealership and bought them a brand-new van — custom ordered to fit their growing crew after learning they had outgrown their 12-seater and the A/C was failing.
And that still wasn't the end of it.

Later that day, he treated the entire family to a second dinner at Rainforest Café, where he quietly paid for another table's meal — not knowing they were out-of-state missionaries. Then, when he learned their waitress was having car trouble, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45589413/shaquille-o-neal-says-a-young-waitress-once-asked-him-for-a-4000-tip-to-pay-her-rent-for-two-months-and-he-said-ok-no-problem">he tipped her $1,000</a> on the spot.
In her heartfelt Instagram post, Collins described the surreal series of events:
"Last night we had a surprise visit from Shaq. He took us to dinner as a family… Today, he took us to the Mercedes dealership to get a new family van… Then to dinner again, tipped our waitress $1,000 after her car broke down, and bought us another truck after seeing the state of my husband's."
That truck? Yes — when Shaq saw the father's vehicle had no air conditioning or heat, he brought them to a Ford dealership and bought a second car.
All in a day.

While Shaq's wealth and fame are impossible to miss, it's his habit of helping quietly that continues to define him. The 7'1" Hall of Famer has long said he tries to "do a good deed every time I leave the house." And in a <a href="https://youtu.be/IQSts2bWRFA?si=_zOhgpr2J_kB8DPP">2021 interview with "Entertainment Tonight," </a>he summed up his approach in just a few words: "I'm into making people happy."
He meant it. During that same interview, Shaq made it clear that he doesn't do it for attention. "I'm not doing it for the cameras," he said. "People just happen to record it." He rarely shares the moments himself—like with the Collins family. That story only surfaced because they posted it. He's especially moved by parents doing their best and has a soft spot for large families and moms in need.
Those values run deep. In a 2021 <a href="https://people.com/sports/shaquille-oneal-on-his-love-for-helping-others-in-need/">People magazine interview</a>, Shaq credited his giving spirit to his parents, who raised him with little but expected him to give a lot. He remembered his father handing their last bag of burgers to a homeless man and telling him, "If you ever make it big time, make sure you help those in need."&nbsp;

To this day, Shaq doesn't see it as charity or grand gestures—just doing what's right. "If I'm somewhere and see somebody's needing something, I'll take care of it," he said.&nbsp;
Over the years, he's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/43077262/nba-legend-shaq-spotted-a-young-man-buying-an-engagement-ring-in-zales-when-he-swooped-in-and-paid-for-it-tell-your-girlfriend-i-got-it">bought an engagement ring for a stranger</a>, covered bills for moms at furniture stores, and handed out game consoles to kids during the holidays.
But for the Collins family, his generosity hit home in the deepest way.
"We were outgrowing our 12-passenger van," Collins wrote. "The A/C didn't always work. I have no words… Somebody wake me up because I must be dreaming."
In a world where headlines often highlight chaos, Shaq's quiet mission to make people smile — one dinner, one van, one generous tip at a time — is the kind of story that reminds us what good can look like.
