Meme coin Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/shib/usd">SHIB</a>) has seen a massive 7,400% increase in its weekly burn rate, with around 2 billion tokens being destroyed. This significant development has sparked renewed optimism about SHIB&#8217;s price potential.
Official tracker Shibburn reported a 7,418% surge in the SHIB weekly burn on Saturday. This followed the removal of 1.93 billion coins from the meme token&#8217;s market supply.
The total supply of the meme coin stood at 589.26 trillion tokens&nbsp;at the time of reporting.

The token burn mechanism of the meme coin helps in reducing the asset&#8217;s&nbsp;excessive market supply by transferring&nbsp;it to a null address.&nbsp;
These tokens can never be&nbsp;retrieved, thus significantly reducing the crypto&#8217;s supply. This action is expected to have&nbsp;a bullish effect on the&nbsp;asset&#8217;s&nbsp;price, reflecting the law of&nbsp;supply and demand.

Kaaldhairya, a Shiba Inu executive, seems to have played a significant role in the burn rate surge. Kaal disclosed on November 30 that the ecosystem&#8217;s semi/auto burns have been operational&nbsp;for months, burning over 300M&nbsp;tokens to date. The executive also said, &#8220;I&nbsp;just burned 80M+ SHIB a&nbsp;few minutes ago and enjoyed&nbsp;the cool animation at the&nbsp;end.&#8221;

Shiba Inu Burn Skyrockets 7,400%, Nearly 2B Tokens Destroyed

Tiffany Masterson's story as the founder of Drunk Elephant, now a household name in skincare, is a powerful example of trusting your instincts – even when doubt surrounds you. Launched in 2013, Drunk Elephant became a major player in the beauty industry before Japanese multinational cosmetics <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/10/41191588/selling-a-business-for-3-7-billion-was-a-mistake-for-46-year-old-he-recounts-it-as-his-saddest-day-o">company </a>Shiseido bought it in 2019 for $845 million.

<li>The global games market is projected to generate $272B by the end of the year —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/gameflip"> for $0.55/share, this VC-backed startup with a 7M+ userbase gives investors easy access to this asset market.</a></li>

</ul>
But the road wasn't easy. From the start, Masterson faced pushback – not for her products but for her brand&#8217;s unconventional name.
In an interview on NPR's How I Built This podcast, Masterson explained how her tight-knit group responded to the name "Drunk Elephant." She added: "My best friend said, ‘I hate it. I don't like it.' My mom didn't like it. My grandma thought that was the dumbest thing she'd ever heard. It just sounded like a bar, people said."
Despite suggestions to reconsider, including a proposal by her hired publicist to conduct a $30,000 focus group, Masterson remained steadfast, believing that external opinions might dilute her vision. She reflected, &#8220;I couldn't listen to other people because then where do you go with that? Then, I wouldn't trust any choices I made … So I just went with it.&#8221;

Masterson felt that the name expressed the core of her brand. She purposely shied away from the standard approach of naming beauty brands after French words or people's names, seeking something mostly playful instead. One of the main ingredients in her formulations is marula oil, which inspired her.
In her research, she saw a video of animals in South Africa eating fermented marula fruit like they were in a drunken stupor. The arcane imagery stuck and "Drunk Elephant" was born.
The risk paid off. According to Racked, Drunk Elephant experienced a 600% sales increase in 2016 after launching its T.L.C. Sukari Babyfacial, bringing its total <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/10/41233338/i-make-180-000-a-month-off-properties-i-dont-even-own-airbnb-arbitrage-is-a-golden-goose-for-many-yo">revenue </a>to $30 million that year. By 2023, eCommerceDB reported that the brand's online revenue had climbed to $123.3 million, with most sales coming from the U.S.&nbsp;
Trending: If there was a new fund backed by Jeff Bezos offering a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/arrived-private-credit-fund">7-9% target yield with monthly dividends would you invest in it</a>?
Masterson's dedication to product quality was evident in her decision to exclude the "Suspicious 6," a list of ingredients including silicones, essential oils and chemical sunscreens that she believed caused skin sensitivity. According to Vogue Hong Kong, this approach resonated with consumers seeking clean, effective skincare solutions.
This philosophy is in line with advice from LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslansky, who advocates that external input be balanced with an inner conviction. "You have to juggle many different people's opinions, but at the end of the day, you have to rely on your gut and make decisions for yourself," he said on The Path, a podcast from LinkedIn.
Roslansky encouraged professionals to weigh risks and keep others' perspectives in mind while remaining true to their instincts. "Take all the input, process it and understand what's happening around you," he said. "But at the end of the day, it's still got to be your heart that makes the decisions."

'They Said It Sounded Like A Bar!' How Tiffany Masterson's Quirky Idea Turned Into A $845 Million Skincare Empire

He&#8217;s a global rock star, having written some of the biggest hits of the last twenty years. He&#8217;s married and dated Hollywood A-listers and lives in a Malibu mansion. However, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin came from far humbler surroundings.&nbsp;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Modest Middle-Class Start</h2>
The chart-topper was born in the unglamorous city of Exeter in 1977, South West England and grew up in Whitestone&#8217;s picturesque but tiny village, just four miles from Exeter city center. Martin attended a local Cathedral school and was raised in a six-bedroom Georgian family home. It was a decent middle-class start, befitting his father&#8217;s thriving family business selling motor homes. However, it pales compared to some of Martin&#8217;s subsequent homesteads, post-rock-star status.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Malibu Rising</h2>
The Englishman called <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/08/40225033/steve-jobs-widow-among-neighbors-on-malibus-exclusive-billionaires-bluff">Malibu</a> home to be close to his children when he and his ex-wife, Gwyneth Paltrow, divorced. When he and current fiancee Dakota Johnson started dating, Martin stayed in the A-list-heavy enclave. Martin and Johnson moved in together in 2020, buying a<a href="https://www.realtor.com/news/celebrity-real-estate/chris-martin-dakota-johnson-property-empire-split-rumors/"> </a>$12.5 million Cape Cod-style mansion featuring five bedrooms and seven bathrooms before selling it a year later for $14.4 million.

Martin has owned several high-priced homes in the area over the years. These include the Garwood Residence, a $14.4 million waterfront home he purchased with Paltrow in 2014, taking ownership after their divorce. He subsequently razed it to construct a new home to share with Johnson.
In 2018, Martin purchased a different property – a $4.5 million theater at Point Dume. The property&#8217;s former incarnations include the Shepherd-by-the-Sea Church and later the famed longtime Malibu Playhouse. He still owns it today.
In 2019, enamored with the area, Martin also purchased a relatively small 1,800-square-foot ranch house for $5,475,000, as first reported in<a href="https://www.standard.co.uk/homesandproperty/celebrity-homes/coldplays-chris-martin-buys-malibu-beach-house-for-ps4-25-million-renovated-ranch-home-is-in-celebrity-hotspot-of-point-dume-a130386.html"> </a>The Standard. The house is ideally located for walks on the nearby private Little Dume Beach.
Martin is also thought to have purchased an additional Malibu home in 2021 for $14 million. The meticulously renovated 1956-built five-bedroom home sits on 1.5 acres of manicured grounds, according to a description in realtor.com.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">North London Digs</h2>
Martin didn&#8217;t turn his back on his native England altogether. In 2014, the &#8220;Paradise&#8221; singer bought a home in North London&#8217;s trendy Belsize Park from actress <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/03/37925511/titanic-floating-wood-panel-that-kept-rose-alive-couldnt-fit-two-people-sells-for-718k-at-a">Kate Winslet</a> for $2.5 million. He sold it in 2022, making a profit of £7 million ($8.8 million).
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Music, Sustainability And A Billion-Dollar Tour</h2>
According to The Times 2023 rich list, Martin&#8217;s net worth was £160 million ($202 million), which has surely increased over the last year with the band having completed a two-and-a-half-year Music of the Spheres World Tour and released a new album. According to<a href="https://www.billboard.com/music/chart-beat/coldplay-tour-1-billion-dollar-grosses-1235762768/"> </a>Billboard, the band grossed over $1 billion from their recent tour and their album, Moon Music, debuted at number one on the Billboard charts with first-week sales of 120,000 and 16.71 million on-demand official streams.
Trending: These five entrepreneurs are worth $223 billion –<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/arrived-homes-private-credit-fund"> they all believe in one platform that offers a 7-9% target yield with monthly dividends</a>
In addition, Coldplay has partnered with carmaker BMW to promote sustainable energy. The German brand is touted for allowing the band to &#8220;create the world&#8217;s first tourable, rechargeable show battery – which will allow us to power our concerts almost entirely from clean, renewable energy,&#8221; Martin said on the<a href="https://www.bmw.com/en/automotive-life/coldplay-sustainable-live-music-experience.html"> </a>BMW website.
Coldplay has partnered with Finnish oil company Neste to halve its touring emissions. In June 2024, the band stated that after two years on the road, it had reduced its emissions by 59% compared to the previous tour on a show-by-show comparison. There is no information on how much each European company paid Coldplay to be associated with them in their sustainability efforts. However, regardless of endorsements, from touring alone, Coldplay is one of the<a href="https://www.lovemoney.com/gallerylist/299431/how-coldplay-became-a-billiondollar-band"> </a>richest bands in the world.
Not bad for a former resident of a quaint English village on the outskirts of Exeter.

From A Devon Cottage To Malibu Mansions – A Look at Coldplay Singer Chris Martin's Homes

Most U.S. voters believe President-elect Donald Trump will grant pardons to individuals involved in the January 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/41814454/donald-trump-could-pardon-ross-ulbricht-january-6-protestors-and-one-other-controversial-f" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">once he returns to the White House</a>.
A new <a href="https://www.politico.com/f/?id=00000193-6fc0-df60-a797-6fc718e80001" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">poll</a> by Politico/Morning Consult reveals that 40% of registered voters think that it is &#8220;very likely&#8221; Trump will pardon those charged in connection with the insurrection, while an additional 29% believe it is &#8220;somewhat likely.&#8221;
In contrast, just 9% of voters say it&#8217;s &#8220;somewhat unlikely,&#8221; and just 6% think it&#8217;s &#8220;very unlikely,&#8221; the Politico/Morning Consult reveals.
This poll was conducted November 20-22 among a sample of 4,012 registered Voters.  Results from the full survey have a margin of error of plus or minus two percentage points.
Trump has consistently defended the rioters, referring to them as &#8220;warriors&#8221; who were unjustly persecuted by the &#8220;[Kamala] Harris regime,&#8221; The Hill <a href="https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/5014163-american-voters-donald-trump-jan-6-pardons-survey/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.

During his campaign, Trump pledged that if he wins the 2024 election, he would review the cases of all individuals he views as political prisoners.
Since the Capitol attack, more than 1,500 people have been charged, with more than 640 sentenced, according to the Justice Department. Trump&#8217;s comments and stance have fueled the expectation that pardons will be forthcoming.
This poll comes amid Trump&#8217;s legal challenges, including a federal election subversion case, which was recently dismissed after his victory in November.

More Than Two-Thirds of Registered Voters Think Trump Will Issue January 6 Pardons

Amazon.com, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/amzn#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) founder&nbsp;Jeff Bezos&nbsp;lives a private life in an elite neighborhood where he&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/bezos-landlord-100-dollars">rarely shows his face</a>.
What To Know:&nbsp;Bezos is a resident of Hunts Point, a wealthy neighborhood just outside of Seattle. He purchased a $37.5 million&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/living/best-waterfront-house-plans/">waterfront property</a>&nbsp;in the neighborhood in 2019, as well as three other nearby homes for his staff, according to a Business Insider<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/jeff-bezos-neighbors-hunts-point-seattle-real-estate-2023-12?utm_medium=social&amp;utm_campaign=business-sf&amp;utm_source=facebook&amp;fbclid=IwAR2_bI6F_vMCKDzK6V7heqE7U9546Pz_vBesxFdrYBEhU3_kn9KGqpNjDGo">&nbsp;report</a>.
Every year, residents of Hunts Point&nbsp;gather to plant trees, pull weeds and pick up trash around the neighborhood, but Bezos never shows up.&nbsp;
&#8220;I&#8217;ve seen a billionaire pick up trash on Cleanup Day. Not Jeff Bezos,&#8221; one resident reportedly told Insider.
Less than 400 people call Hunts Point home, but the neighborhood is filled with&nbsp;multiple&nbsp;billionaires and other members of the business elite. Former&nbsp;Microsoft Corp&nbsp;(NASDAQ:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/msft#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) CEO&nbsp;Steve Ballmer&nbsp;and&nbsp;Costco Wholesale Corporation&nbsp;(NASDAQ:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cost#NASDAQ">COST</a>) co-founder&nbsp;James Sinegal&nbsp;are among the residents of Hunts Point.&nbsp;
Check This Out:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/12/36137985/charlie-munger-admired-bezos-and-musk-but-passed-on-amazon-tesla-at-first-you-have-to-let-ideas-die">Jeff Bezos Denies Elon Musk&#8217;s Allegation That He Told People To Sell Tesla Stock: &#8216;100% Not True&#8217;</a>
Although Bezos never made appearances at any of the neighborhood gatherings or fundraising events, his staff was regularly seen roaming the area. Bezos had a personal chef who lived in the neighborhood and delivered meals to Bezos on a golf cart, one resident said.&nbsp;
The billionaire&#8217;s security guards also lived in a house near the entrance of the neighborhood and were very friendly to other residents. They had often&nbsp;been&nbsp;seen taking misaddressed packages to other doorsteps — how ironic. They also were involved in reporting suspicious persons and behavior.&nbsp;
Although Bezos kept his gate closed and rarely&nbsp;showed his face, he still acted like he ran the place.
&#8220;Jeff Bezos acts like he owns Hunts Point,&#8221; one resident said.&nbsp;
Another neighbor told Insider that he never seemed to live&nbsp;there full-time. &#8220;He&#8217;s not much of a neighbor,&#8221; the resident said.
Last year, Bezos announced&nbsp;he was&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/11/35584563/jeff-bezos-makes-emotional-decision-to-shift-base-to-miami-shares-throwback-video-of-seattle-garage">leaving the Seattle area</a>&nbsp;for Miami.&nbsp;
&#8220;My parents have always been my biggest supporters. They recently moved back to Miami, the place we lived when I was younger &#8230;&nbsp;I want to be close to my parents, and Lauren and I love Miami,&#8221; Bezos said in an Instagram&nbsp;<a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CzKZBPmvzPV/">post</a>.&nbsp;
When Bezos bought his home in Hunts Point in 2019, he was the richest person in the world. At the time of writing, Bezos was ranked third on the Forbes real-time billionaires&nbsp;<a href="https://www.forbes.com/real-time-billionaires/#6d3d07a13d78">list</a>&nbsp;with a net worth of approximately $221.3 billion.

Buffett has long championed that wealth should serve society rather than create dynasties. His recent donation includes approximately $720 million to the Susan Thompson Buffett Foundation, named after his late first wife. The remaining $144 million was distributed equally among the foundations run by his three children: Howard, Peter and Susie Buffett.
Buffett's letter accompanying the announcement emphasized his belief in equal opportunity from birth. He criticized the &#8220;extreme look-at-me styles of living&#8221; often associated with wealth and reiterated his family's philosophy of modest living. &#8220;As a family, we have had everything we needed or simply liked,&#8221; he wrote, &#8220;but we have not sought enjoyment from the fact that others craved what we had.&#8221;

Buffett's giving over the years has been substantial. Since 2006, he has made annual gifts to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/10/41145078/billionaire-bill-gates-has-a-bold-plan-to-shrink-the-wealth-of-the-rich-heres-how-he-intends-to-">Bill &amp; Melinda Gates Foundation</a> as well as the family foundations. However, he revealed that his contributions to the Gates Foundation will cease after his death.
Buffett has previously stated that his three children will oversee the distribution of his remaining wealth within 10 years of his passing. In a proactive move, he announced that successors have already been chosen in case his children – 71, 69 and 66 – cannot complete the task. While he did not disclose the successors&#8217; identities, Buffett confirmed that his children are aligned with the choices.
Buffett acknowledged the inevitability of mortality, saying, &#8220;Father Time always wins. But he can be inconsistent – indeed, unfair and even cruel … Before long, he will get around to me.&#8221;
Trending: The number of ‘401(k)' Millionaires is up 43% from last year —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/401k-millionaires"> Here are three ways to join the club.</a>
Buffett attributes his immense fortune to the power of compounding interest and the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/24/09/40784119/warren-buffetts-sister-went-all-in-on-berkshire-hathaway-and-never-looked-back">success of Berkshire Hathaway</a>, which he has led for decades. Despite his vast wealth, he has maintained a frugal lifestyle, living in the same Omaha home he purchased in 1958 and driving modest cars.
He also advised families of all financial backgrounds: discuss your will with your heirs while alive and before you sign it. Buffett believes open communication can prevent family disputes after a loved one's death. &#8220;You don't want your children asking "Why?" in respect to testamentary decisions when you can no longer respond,&#8221; he wrote.
Even after donating more than 56% of his wealth, Buffett remains among the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/24/10/41302431/elon-musk-to-end-year-as-richest-man-in-the-world-prediction-market-says-yes-higher-chance-than-l">world's richest individuals</a>. His contributions have been transformative, with $55 billion already directed to the Gates Foundation alone. The remainder of his fortune will be distributed through his family's philanthropic efforts, a responsibility his children have embraced.
Buffett&#8217;s ultimate goal is to ensure his wealth makes a lasting impact. His philosophy reflects a life guided not by the trappings of money but by its potential to create positive change.

Warren Buffett Gives Away Another $1.1B And Reveals His Plan For Distributing $147B After His Death

Health and Human Services Secretary-designate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has a long history of working internationally to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/partner/markets/24/11/42086831/how-the-intersection-of-public-health-and-politics-can-shift-the-societal-landscape" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">challenge public health policies</a>.
Known for his outspoken skepticism about vaccines and conspiracy theories, Kennedy has extended his influence beyond the U.S. to undermine global health initiatives, particularly in areas like vaccination and AIDS prevention, The New York Times <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/30/world/africa/rfk-jr-kennedy-international-work-public-health-policies.html">reports</a>. 
Kennedy&#8217;s nonprofit, Children&#8217;s Health Defense, has established a network of overseas chapters that spread misinformation and promote skepticism about vaccines. In countries like Uganda and South Africa, his organization has interfered with public health efforts, including sex education campaigns meant to combat the spread of AIDS in Africa. 
Kennedy and his affiliates have also targeted the World Health Organization (WHO), questioning the efficacy of their programs and fueling conspiracy theories about global health initiatives, The New York Times added.

One of his most notable international interventions occurred in Samoa, where a tragic measles outbreak followed his visit in 2019. After a public health tragedy involving the death of two infants during routine vaccinations, Kennedy amplified doubts about vaccine safety. 
His visit, alongside local anti-vaccine activists, led to a significant decline in vaccination rates. Despite the outbreak, Kennedy continued to promote false claims about defective vaccines, contributing to the public health crisis that resulted in 83 deaths, mostly children, The New York Times reports. 
Kennedy has also played a prominent role in Europe, where his organization has hosted conferences promoting vaccine skepticism and opposing COVID-19 health measures. In 2022, Children&#8217;s Health Defense Europe helped organize a protest in Berlin, drawing thousands who rallied against pandemic restrictions. 
The organization&#8217;s ties to fringe groups, including far-right political activists and lawmakers, have raised alarm, especially as it has continued to promote theories that link vaccines to conspiracies involving Bill Gates and global pharmaceutical companies. 
His organization&#8217;s efforts have had tangible effects on vaccination confidence, particularly in countries like South Africa, where misinformation spread by his network contributed to a 30% decline in vaccine trust. 
As Kennedy prepares to take the reins of HHS, his track record of promoting unproven remedies and opposing established public health policies has raised serious concerns about his potential impact on U.S. and global health policy.

Trump's HHS Pick RFK Jr. Has a Long History of Challenging Global Health Policies

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">WAMCO&#8217;s Ken Leech Charged With Fraud For Allegedly ‘Cherry-Picking' Trades</h2>
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Monday announced fraud <a href="https://www.sec.gov/newsroom/press-releases/2024-187">charges against </a>Stephen Kenneth ("Ken") Leech, the former co-chief investment officer of Western Asset Management Company LLC or WAMCO, owned by Franklin Resources, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BEN#NYSE">BEN</a>).&nbsp;
The SEC's complaint alleges that Leech engaged in a multi-year scheme to allocate favorable trades to certain portfolios, while allocating unfavorable trades to other portfolios in a practice known as "cherry-picking" from at least January 2021 through October 2023.&nbsp;
The SEC claims Leech placed trades with brokers and then waited until later in the trading day to allocate the trades among clients in the portfolios he managed. According to the complaint, Leech's delay between placing and allocating trades allowed him the opportunity to observe price movements, and then disproportionately allocate profitable trades to favored portfolios and unprofitable trades to disfavored portfolios.&nbsp;
"This alleged behavior is an egregious abuse of power," said Andrew Dean, Co-Chief of the Division of Enforcement's Asset Management Unit. "By hand-picking trades and sending them to portfolios he favored, Leech allegedly stood to profit personally and professionally."
The complaint alleges that Leech allocated hundreds of millions of dollars in gains to favored portfolios, which also benefited Leech personally, and allocated a similar amount of losses to disfavored portfolios.&nbsp;
Leech received annual <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-25/ken-leech-sued-by-sec-over-alleged-cherry-picking-scheme?fromMostRead=true&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">bonuses </a>ranging from $28 million to $30 million per year between 2018 and 2020, and $21 million in 2022, the SEC said, per Bloomberg.&nbsp;
In a parallel action, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York also announced charges against Leech. The SEC said its investigation remains ongoing.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">SEC Enforcement Results for Fiscal Year 2024</h2>
Last Friday, the SEC released its<a href="https://www.sec.gov/newsroom/press-releases/2024-186"> enforcement results</a> for fiscal 2024 and said that it filed 583 total enforcement actions during the year. The agency also obtained orders for $8.2 billion in financial remedies, the highest amount in SEC history.
The $8.2 billion in financial remedies consisted of $6.1 billion in disgorgement and prejudgment interest, also the highest amount on record, and $2.1 billion in civil penalties, the second-highest amount on record.&nbsp;
More than half &#8211; 56% &#8211; of the $8.2 billion financial remedies ordered is attributable to a monetary judgment obtained following the SEC's<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/09/40809382/terraform-labs-historic-4-5b-settlement-with-sec-makes-2024-the-most-penalized-year-for-cr"> trial win</a> against Terraform Labs and Do Kwon.&nbsp;
"The Division of Enforcement is a steadfast cop on the beat, following the facts and the law wherever they lead to hold wrongdoers accountable," said SEC Chair Gary Gensler. "As demonstrated by this year's results, the Division helps promote the integrity of our capital markets to benefit investors and issuers alike."

Financial Crime Weekly: WAMCO's Ken Leech Charged With Fraud, SEC Announces Annual Enforcement Results

President-elect Donald Trump may face significant challenges in filling key Cabinet positions, as several of his nominees are expected to encounter strong <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/24/11/42239913/trump-white-house-picks-including-elon-musk-and-scott-bessent-spark-conflict-of-interest-concerns-potentially-the-greatest-ethics-cataclysm-in-the-history-of-our-government" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">opposition from Senate Republicans</a>.
With a GOP-controlled Senate, Trump could be forced to rely on acting secretaries for some departments, a strategy he employed extensively during his first term, The Hill <a target="_blank" href="https://thehill.com/homenews/5010808-trump-acting-secretaries/" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.
Under the Federal Vacancies Reform Act, acting officials can serve in their roles for up to 210 days without Senate confirmation, with potential extensions if a nominee is still under consideration. During his first term, Trump frequently used acting secretaries, resulting in more than 2,700 combined days across 22 Cabinet-level positions by February 2020, the report read.

This was more than three times the total of acting officials under President Barack Obama&#8216;s eight years in office.
Notable Trump picks, including Defense Secretary-designate Pete Hegseth, HHS Secretary-designate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and Director of National Intelligence pick Tulsi Gabbard, are expected to face tough scrutiny from the Senate.
According to Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.), the plan is to have experienced deputies ready to support acting secretaries and ensure the smooth operation of agencies. This strategy could mitigate some of the concerns that arose from past acting officials, such as Chad Wolf, whose authority as acting Secretary of Homeland Security was challenged in court.
However, some political analysts suggest that Trump may not resort to acting appointments as frequently this time, given the narrow GOP majority in the Senate. If confirmation battles become too distracting, it could impact the Trump administration&#8217;s broader agenda, The Hill adds.

Once again, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/24/11/41853221/trump-says-he-wont-sell-trump-media-stock">Donald Trump</a>'s entrepreneurial flair has taken center stage by releasing his new branded guitars, including a "Signature Edition" model costing $10,000. The president-elect has an extensive list of merchandise, ranging from $60 bibles to $100,000 watches. And while his product line has brought significant attention, it also raises questions about presidential branding and conflicts of interest that may come with it.&nbsp;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Closer Look at Trump's Guitars</h2>
The "Trump Guitars" collection includes a few different models:&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>The American Eagle Series</li>
<li>The Presidential Series</li>
<li>God Bless The USA</li>
</ul>
Prices for the base models start at $1,250 and the "Signature Edition," which features Trump's autograph, is priced at $10,000. According to The Associated Press, the "Limited Edition ‘45' Guitar" is an electric model that showcases patriotic imagery, including an American Flag and a bald eagle, with Trump's "Make America Great Again" slogan inlaid along the neck.&nbsp;
Trump personally introduced the limited-edition guitars on Truth Social, posting a photo of himself holding one. This product launch follows a trend of high-value items Trump has marketed during his third White House campaign, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/08/40445918/how-much-has-donald-trump-made-from-nft-sales-its-more-than-you-might-think">including NFTs</a>, coins and sneakers.&nbsp;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Financial Implications</h2>
While the guitars have sparked curiosity, it isn't clear where their financial backing comes from. According to ABC News, Trump has historically used licensing agreements to monetize his brand. Products like guitars are generally sold through external companies, so Trump can profit from them without direct involvement in manufacturing or sales.&nbsp;
Trump has reportedly earned millions from his licensing deals. CBS News reports that he received $7.2 million from NFTs and $300,000 from Trump-branded bibles. These arrangements, though, frequently meet criticism for their lack of transparency.
Jordan Libowitz, vice president at Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, told ABC News, "We&#8217;ve never seen a president merchandise like this. Tracking partners is difficult unless they come forward and there's no way to know for sure."
Libowitz added that it's impossible to know if Trump might use his office's power to help his bottom line without transparency about his business partners.&nbsp;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Growing Merchandise Empire</h2>
Trump's guitars are just the latest in a long line of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/09/41080343/mark-cuban-criticizes-trumps-coin-push-is-this-a-con-or-an-investment">branded products</a> that have gained traction among his supporters. Over the years, he has marketed everything from steaks and cologne to digital trading cards and watches. According to ABC News, this approach represents an unprecedented melding of political identity and consumer branding.
As with previous merchandise, critics have raised concerns about these items&#8217; pricing and perceived value. For instance, Libowitz argues that the $10,000 guitars and other high-priced goods may create opportunities for individuals or entities to funnel money directly to Trump.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Ethical Concerns and the Future</h2>
The expansion of Trump's merchandise empire raises ethical questions, particularly as he prepares to take office again. Experts, including Robert Weissman of Public Citizen, warn that the opaque nature of these licensing agreements could create potential conflicts of interest.
With few regulatory requirements to ensure transparency, watchdog groups worry about the potential for undue influence. ABC News notes that Trump is expected to relinquish control of his businesses to his sons upon reentering the White House, as he did during his first term. However, critics argue that this arrangement provides limited oversight.
The launch of Trump's $10,000 guitars signals a continued evolution in presidential merchandising. Whether viewed as innovative branding or a cause for concern, the guitars demonstrate Trump's enduring ability to leverage his persona for profit. As <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/11/42154487/robert-kiyosaki-trump-will-make-america-richer-again-by-being-the-first-bitcoin-president">his presidency</a> approaches, the scrutiny surrounding these ventures will likely intensify, shaping discussions on the intersection of politics, business and ethics.

&#8220;We are on a mission to build the most innovative, resilient and climate-resilient town in America and in a few short years, we&#8217;ve done just that,&#8221; Syd Kitson, the former Green Bay Packers player who cofounded Babcock Ranch, said to Realtor.com. The development&#8217;s success earned Kitson Time Magazine&#8217;s &#8220;Dreamer of the Year&#8221; recognition in 2023.
Residents there report savings on utility costs despite larger living spaces. &#8220;It was half the cost of our old homes, yet we have double the square footage now,&#8221; homeowner Janette Dulaney told the Babcock Ranch Telegraph, describing her first electric bill as &#8220;mind-blowing.&#8221;

According to the Realtor report, the community&#8217;s homes, priced from $300,000 to $4 million, incorporate energy-saving features under Bronze Standard FGBC Certification requirements. High-performance windows, advanced insulation and efficient heating and cooling systems contribute to sustainability and hurricane resistance. All structures can withstand 150 mph winds, while underground power lines prevent storm-related outages. &#8220;This town should be duplicated all over,&#8221; says Jason Upperco, a 49-year-old who built a home in the community, pointing to the innovative features.
Environmental protection extends beyond individual homes. About 90% of the community sits on preserved wetlands, naturally mitigating flood risks. Smart Pond systems connected to weather forecasts automatically adjust water levels before storms arrive. The development&#8217;s elevation, 30 feet above sea level, further protects against storm surges.
Trending: Commercial real estate has historically outperformed the stock market, and<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/marcus-millichap-backed-platform-makes-it-easy-to-invest-in-real-estate"> this platform allows individuals to invest in commercial real estate with as little as $5,000 offering a 12% target yield with a bonus 1% return boost today!</a>
The 73,000-acre preservation area surrounding the community reflects Kitson&#8217;s vision of development working &#8220;hand in hand with Mother Nature,&#8221; the report said. The approach proved successful during Hurricane Milton when two Babcock Ranch buildings served as emergency shelters for 2,000 people.
&#8220;It&#8217;s very important to know that you are positively impacting the Earth,&#8221; Upperco said. Beyond energy efficiency, the development promotes sustainable living through walkable neighborhoods, outdoor activities and local amenities that reduce car dependency.
Community features include five neighborhood lakes for water sports, two resident lodges with swimming pools and events at Founder&#8217;s Square, where solar trees provide device charging stations. Children commonly walk or bike to school, contributing to the community&#8217;s reduced carbon footprint.
&#8220;To future &#8216;innovators,&#8217; if you are going to do something unprecedented, be prepared for rejection,&#8221; Kitson said, reflecting on the project&#8217;s challenges.&nbsp;

'This Town Should Be Duplicated' – How America's Solar-Powered Hurricane Haven Cuts Power Bills In Half

JPMorgan Chase is all in on artificial intelligence. The bank's CEO, Jamie Dimon, is leading the charge. He is described as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/03/37610586/after-saying-ai-is-not-hype-jpmorgans-jamie-dimon-reveals-how-he-personally-and-professionally-uses">"tremendous user" of the tech</a> and, apparently, he's eager to use it on his phone.
"He's been desperate to get it on his phone," said Teresa Heitsenrether, JPMorgan's chief data and analytics officer. Speaking at the Evident AI Symposium, as reported by Business Insider, she added, "That's a big deliverable before the end of the year."

</ul>
JPMorgan recently launched its "LLM Suite," a generative AI tool, to 200,000 employees. These tools are already making waves. Before business reviews with Dimon, Heitsenrether runs her presentation through AI to refine the message. "What is the message coming out of this? Make it more concise. Make it clear," she explained. "It certainly has helped with that."
The AI rollout is just the first step in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38149277/jamie-dimon-equates-ai-to-printing-press-steam-engine-consequences-will-be-extraordinary">JPMorgan's broader </a>AI strategy, which Dimon likened earlier this year to the steam engine and the printing press, saying its "consequences will be extraordinary." The bank aims to take employees from "five minutes of efficiency to five hours of efficiency," Heitsenrether said. This means moving beyond tasks like summarizing documents and integrating AI into daily workflows.

The response to AI at JPMorgan has been "enthusiastic," sparking "healthy competition" between teams. The wealth and asset management division was the first to test a generative AI "copilot" this summer. Naturally, other teams wanted in. "When the investment bank found out, they said, ‘Well, wait a minute, we want to be on there too,'" Heitsenrether said. "It does create a flywheel effect."
To help employees adapt to AI, JPMorgan offers training and has created "superusers"—the top 10% to 20% of employees eager to adopt the tech. These superusers act as local experts within their teams.
The most common early adopters are people who immediately see the benefits, like lawyers using AI to summarize contracts in minutes instead of hours.

Still, not everyone's on board. Heitsenrether acknowledged "pockets of resistance." But she emphasized that the sooner people engage with AI, the faster they see its potential. "Having it in your hands, I think, demystifies it quite a lot," she said.
JPMorgan isn't stopping here. By next year, Heitsenrether hopes employees will have personal AI assistants tailored to their specific roles.
However, the bank recognizes this is just the beginning. AI systems still need a "human in the loop" to verify their outputs, said Sumitra Ganesh, a member of JPMorgan's AI research team. "It's like training wheels," she said. "At some point, we will be confident enough to let them go."
For now, Jamie Dimon's phone is waiting.

Benzinga Bulls And Bears: Amazon, Tesla, Rivian, Palantir And How Dogecoin Helped Low-Income Families Achieve Homeownership

World&#8217;s richest person Elon Musk has expressed his agreement with Apple Inc.'s legendary co-founder Steve Jobs&#8217; on what the most important job of a CEO of a company is.
What Happened: Earlier this month, Startup Archive shared an old clip of Jobs where he underscored that the most important job of a CEO is recruiting, not managing.
"The greatest people are self-managing. They don't need to be managed…&#8221; Jobs said. &#8220;What they need is a common vision, and that's what leadership is.&#8221;
&#8220;Leadership is having a vision, being able to articulate that so the people around you can understand it, and getting consensus on a common vision."
The former Apple CEO believed that once a strong core team is in place, it becomes self-sustaining and ensures only exceptional talent is brought in.

Responding to this perspective, Musk, known for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/38013068/tesla-ceo-elon-musk-reacts-to-apple-co-founder-steve-jobs-on-finding-top-talent-you-build-up-these-p">his admiration of Jobs</a>, commented, &#8220;Couldn&#8217;t agree more,&#8221; reaffirming his own leadership philosophy.

Why It Matters: Musk previously also highlighted his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39393059/elon-musk-agrees-with-legendary-apple-co-founder-steve-jobs-on-thinker-doers-the-doers-are-the-major">alignment with Jobs&#8217;s remark</a> that those who take action are also the greatest thinkers.
Musk also echoed the sentiments of the late Apple co-founder, who once spoke about the importance of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38178568/elon-musk-reacts-to-old-clip-of-apple-co-founder-steve-jobs-saying-theres-a-tremendous-amount-of-cra">fostering a team culture</a> dedicated to transforming innovative ideas into successful products.
However, the Tesla CEO once also took a swipe at Jobs for reportedly contributing to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39126810/elon-musk-mocks-steve-jobs-apples-potential-deal-with-openai-siris-ai-overhaul-and-more-this-week-in">Apple's hesitation to adopt</a> open-source technologies.
Walter Isaacson, who has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/10/35256969/elon-musk-vs-steve-jobs-walter-isaacson-delves-into-the-minds-of-two-tech-titans">penned biographies</a> of both Musk and Jobs, said that both leaders shared a &#8220;dark streak&#8221; characterized by brutally honest feedback that pushed their teams toward excellence.
While this approach spurred innovation, it occasionally veered into excessive criticism.

Elon Musk Agrees With Steve Jobs On The Most Important Job Of A CEO: Here's What The Legendary Apple Co-Founder Had To Say

In a significant move, MicroStrategy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) looks set to join the Nasdaq 100 index, prompting a major reconstitution of the index. This change, based on market cap rankings as of Nov. 29, will take effect after Dec. 20.
What Happened: According to&nbsp;a report <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/article/4740896-nasdaq-100-upcoming-index-reconstitution-could-be-a-major-event">by</a> Seeking Alpha, the inclusion of MicroStrategy, with its $94 billion market cap, will impact passive funds tracking the&nbsp;index, such as the Invesco&nbsp;QQQ Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NYSE">QQQ</a>) and&nbsp;the Invesco Nasdaq 100&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQM#NYSE">QQQM</a>).
These funds, along with&nbsp;the Global X Nasdaq 100&nbsp;Covered Call (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QYLD#NYSE">QYLD</a>), will need to adjust their holdings to include MicroStrategy by Dec. 20.
MicroStrategy&#8217;s entry into the NASDAQ 100 introduces Bitcoin exposure to passive investors, as the company holds&nbsp;nearly 2% of the Bitcoin&nbsp;supply. Known&nbsp;for issuing stock to purchase&nbsp;Bitcoin, MicroStrategy&#8217;s strategy could affect the index&#8217;s dynamics.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42253242/microstrategys-michael-saylor-calls-bitcoin-the-manhattan-in-cyberspace-says-its-an-asset-you-could-expect-to-las">MicroStrategy's Michael Saylor Calls Bitcoin The ‘Manhattan In Cyberspace,' Says It's An Asset You Could Expect To ‘Last 1,000 Years'</a>
The reconstitution may result in increased turnover and potential tracking errors for ETFs, as they will need to rebalance their portfolios to accommodate MicroStrategy&#8217;s growing market cap. This unique situation could lead to strategic trading opportunities for investors.
Why It Matters: MicroStrategy&#8217;s potential inclusion in the NASDAQ 100 is a testament to its growing influence in the financial markets, particularly due to its aggressive Bitcoin strategy.
Recently,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42160774/microstrategy-is-the-bitcoin-magnet-says-bernstein-but-not-everybodys-sold-nothing-is-free-in-finance-says-one-analyst">Bernstein</a>&nbsp;described MicroStrategy as a &#8220;Bitcoin magnet,&#8221; projecting it could hold 4% of the global Bitcoin supply by 2033. However, this strategy is not without risks, as some analysts caution about its long-term viability.
Additionally,&nbsp;Michael Saylor, co-founder of MicroStrategy, recently revealed that the company is generating substantial profits from its Bitcoin holdings, reportedly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42151809/michael-saylor-reveals-microstrategy-is-making-500m-a-day-with-bitcoin-may-very-well-be-the-most-profitable-company-in-the-us-growing-the-fastest-right-now">making $500 million a day</a> as Bitcoin nears $100,000.
This has contributed to a surge in MicroStrategy&#8217;s stock, which has increased by 465% year-to-date, significantly impacting ETFs linked to its performance, as noted in a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/42208970/microstrategy-linked-etfs-skyrocket-400-this-year-is-this-the-michael-saylor-effect">recent report</a>.
MicroStrategy&#8217;s recent $3 billion offering of 0% convertible senior notes, completed swiftly, underscores <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/42186167/michael-saylors-microstrategy-convertible-notes-to-buy-bitcoin-offer-no-interest-so-why-are-investors-rushing-to-buy-them">investor confidence in its strategy</a>. These notes offer no interest but allow participation in the equity upside, reflecting the market&#8217;s appetite for exposure to MicroStrategy&#8217;s Bitcoin-driven growth.
Price Action: Bitcoin was hovering at $96,776 at the time of writing, up by 0.46% in the last 24 hours, according to Benzinga Pro data.
MicroStrategy&#8217;s stock closed at $387.47 on Friday, falling slightly by 0.35%. Year-to-date, the stock has gained 465%.
The MicroStrategy stock has a consensus rating of &#8220;Buy,&#8221; according to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/41683531/michael-saylor-calls-microstrategy-the-public-equity-play-on-bitcoin-maximalism-heres-whos" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro data</a>. The highest price target is $690, while the consensus price target is $449.50, implying a 16% upside.

MicroStrategy's Imminent Inclusion In Nasdaq 100 Could Reportedly Spark Up To $2B In Fund Inflows

Veteran investor&nbsp;Mark Mobius&nbsp;has highlighted U.S. tech firms with ties to emerging markets as prime investment opportunities for the upcoming year.
What Happened: In an interview <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/11/29/buy-big-tech-firms-with-exposure-to-emerging-markets-mark-mobius.html">with</a> CNBC, Mobius,&nbsp;chairman of the Mobius Emerging&nbsp;Opportunities Fund, emphasized the potential of companies leveraging technology to boost productivity.
Mobius pointed out that U.S.-based companies focusing on markets like China and India are strategically positioned for growth.
"I focus on those companies that are global in their scope, and producing and exporting and selling in these countries, because that's where the growth will be."
Mobius also mentioned the significance of companies involved in&nbsp;&#8220;accelerated information,&#8221; such as chip&nbsp;manufacturers, which are benefiting from rapid information processing capabilities.
His observations come amid an economic surge in semiconductor-producing emerging markets, with Taiwan leading in advanced chip manufacturing. Southeast Asian nations, particularly Malaysia, are also seeing increased foreign investment due to their chip production focus.

Despite concerns of a tech bubble due to high valuations of major tech stocks like&nbsp;Alphabet Inc.,&nbsp;Amazon.com Inc., and&nbsp;Nvidia Corp., Mobius remains optimistic.
He believes the growth rates of these companies justify their valuations, and he expects continued strong performance from the &#8220;Magnificent Seven&#8221; tech giants.
Why It Matters:&nbsp;Mobius&nbsp;has been a staunch advocate for investing in emerging markets, particularly in Asia. In July 2023, he stated that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/07/33454156/billionaire-investor-mark-mobius-puts-all-his-money-outside-us-im-all-international">he had no investments in the U.S.</a>, focusing entirely on international and emerging markets. This aligns with his current emphasis on U.S. tech firms with exposure to these regions.
Mobius has also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/08/40455099/veteran-investor-mark-mobius-warns-of-potential-risk-to-us-markets-amid-recent-vola">warned of potential risks</a> to U.S. markets amid recent volatility, noting a significant decline in the U.S. M2 money supply. This drop could impact discretionary spending, a key driver of economic growth.
Meanwhile, the surge in&nbsp;Nvidia&#8217;s stock has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/07/39773480/nvidias-stock-surge-raises-concentration-risks-for-investors-warns-analyst-not-smar">raised concerns</a> about concentration risks for investors. The company&#8217;s shares have skyrocketed, driven by high demand for its AI chips.
However, this rapid growth has led to increased holdings by asset managers, posing potential risks if the stock takes a downturn.

Mark Mobius Advocates For Big Tech Investments In Emerging Markets: 'That's Where The Growth Will Be'

Earlier this month, President-elect Donald Trump selected Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to lead the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/41965420/department-of-government-efficiency-led-by-elon-musk-and-vivek-ramaswamy-opens-x-account-with-username-doge">newly formed Department</a> of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
DOGE&#8217;s mission is to identify opportunities for cost-cutting, aiming to reduce the federal budget by up to $2 trillion.
Musk and Ramaswamy are now reportedly tapping into the expertise of Silicon Valley's brightest minds. Here's a closer look at the leaders shaping this new initiative:
Vivek Ramaswamy
Ramaswamy is positioned at the helm of DOGE. After his run for the presidency in 2023, Ramaswamy shifted his focus to supporting Trump.
As co-leader of DOGE, he has highlighted &#8220;crowdsourcing&#8221; examples of waste and inefficiency, promising that Americans will have a voice in shaping the future of federal spending.
Ramaswamy&#8217;s story is captivating: the son of Indian immigrants, he transformed a bold biotech venture into a billion-dollar success by the time he was just 38. You can read about it <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/11/42038767/im-one-of-you-how-anti-woke-warrior-vivek-ramaswamy-became-a-billionaire-at-only-38">here</a>.

Travis Kalanick
Kalanick, the former CEO of Uber Technologies, is no stranger to transforming industries. Known for his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entrepreneurship/24/06/39293049/one-of-americas-most-infamous-ceos">controversial leadership</a> at Uber, Kalanick's reputation as a disruptor aligns with DOGE's mission to shake up Washington's status quo.
He stepped down as Uber&#8217;s CEO in 2017 and resigned from its Board of Directors in 2019. He is now the CEO of City Storage Systems and leads the 10100 Fund.
Kalanick has reportedly been consulted by Musk and Ramaswamy on strategies to make federal government operations more efficient and responsive, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/doge-silicon-valley-leaders-elon-musk-donald-trump-vivek-ramaswamy-2024-11#vivek-ramaswamy-1">reported</a> Business Insider.
Earlier this year, there were rumors about Kalanick heading Tesla's robotaxi division, however, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39658817/elon-musk-denies-rumors-of-uber-co-founder-travis-kalanick-joining-tesla-to-lead-its-robotaxi-effort">Musk denied them</a>.&nbsp;
Marc Andreessen
Co-founder of Andreessen Horowitz, Andreessen is one of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39813818/elon-musk-highlights-top-silicon-valley-investors-marc-andreessen-ben-horowitz-discussing-their-supp">most influential figures</a> in tech today. Established in 2009, Andreessen Horowitz has supported a range of companies, including OpenAI, Facebook, Airbnb, Anduril, Box, DoorDash, and GitHub.
In an episode of the Joe Rogan Experience podcast earlier this month, Andreessen made it clear that he sees Musk&#8217;s approach — focused on accountability and innovation — as a model for governmental efficiency.
He is also known for his sharp critique of government overreach, particularly when it comes to regulatory agencies like the SEC and FTC.&nbsp;
Last year, Andreessen and Musk <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/06/32978942/marc-andreessen-takes-a-dig-at-elon-musk-led-ai-camp-whats-really-happening-in-dc">clashed over demands</a> for strict AI regulations. Andreessen championed the idea of unrestricted AI development and market competition, believing they are essential to unlocking the technology's full potential.
Sriram Krishnan
Krishnan is a general partner at Andreessen Horowitz. He is another Silicon Valley leader reportedly in talks to join DOGE.&nbsp;
He has previously <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/22/12/30132350/who-could-be-the-next-twitter-ceo-after-elon-musk-a-look-at-7-potential-candidates">worked closely</a> with Musk during the Twitter takeover and has a background in managing high-growth companies like Meta Platforms, Inc. and Snap Inc.
Antonio Gracias
Gracias is a seasoned private equity executive who has been a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/22/08/28562499/elon-musk-complains-about-twitter-hounding-him-for-chats-with-associates-outside-deal-scope-report">trusted ally of Musk</a> for years. Gracias played a key role in securing financing for Musk's $44 billion Twitter acquisition and has been integral to many of Musk's ventures, including Tesla.
Now, Gracias is reportedly advising on the strategic direction of DOGE.

Elon Musk's DOGE Dream Team: From Marc Andreessen To Uber's Travis Kalanick, Silicon Valley Titans Reportedly Join Forces To Overhaul Federal Spending

Renowned crypto analyst&nbsp;Michaël van de Poppe&nbsp;has predicted a significant rally for a top altcoin, alongside Bitcoin&#8217;s (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) potential historic surge. This forecast comes as the cryptocurrency market shows signs of a shift from Bitcoin dominance <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/11/42237636/bitcoin-ethereum-dogecoin-simmer-down-on-thanksgiving-analyst-sees-significant-shift-from-btc-season-to-alt-season">to an altcoin season</a>.
What Happened: Van de Poppe anticipates a substantial breakout for&nbsp;Stacks (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/stx/usd">STX</a>), a top-50 altcoin. He suggests that STX,&nbsp;the native token of the&nbsp;Bitcoin layer-2 project, could rally by 70% as it nears a critical resistance level.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

Next stop? I think a new ATH. <a href="https://t.co/GxAySpTM3t">pic.twitter.com/GxAySpTM3t</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Currently, STX is trading at $2.29, marking a 20% increase over the past week, with the potential to exceed its all-time high of $3.86 set in April.
Moreover, van de Poppe predicts that&nbsp;Bitcoin could reach a six-figure milestone if it breaks the $98,000 resistance on the four-hour chart. Bitcoin is currently trading at $96,995,&nbsp;up 1.3% in the last&nbsp;24 hours.

Additionally, van de Poppe is optimistic about&nbsp;VeChain (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/vet/usd">VET</a>), highlighting its recent announcement of VeBetterDAO, an ecosystem rewarding sustainable actions.
Why It Matters: The cryptocurrency market is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/11/42237636/bitcoin-ethereum-dogecoin-simmer-down-on-thanksgiving-analyst-sees-significant-shift-from-btc-season-to-alt-season">undergoing a notable transition</a>. Bitcoin has been oscillating around the $95,000 zone, indicating a potential shift towards altcoins. This aligns with van de Poppe&#8217;s forecast of an altcoin season.
Furthermore,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42235119/ethereum-outperformed-bitcoin-this-week-as-key-indicators-shift-report">Ethereum&#8217;s recent outperformance</a>&nbsp;against Bitcoin, driven by key market indicators and the upcoming departure of SEC Chair&nbsp;Gary Gensler, has bolstered sentiment around altcoins. Gensler&#8217;s tenure was marked by stringent regulations on cryptocurrencies, and his resignation could signal a more favorable environment for altcoins.
Van de Poppe&#8217;s analysis also warns of potential&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/42127938/bitcoin-analyst-warns-of-4-6-flash-crashes-before-year-end-as-it-inches-closer-to-100k-thats-the-moment-altcoins-shoot-off">&#8220;flash crashes&#8221;</a>&nbsp;in Bitcoin, which could present strategic entry points for investors, further fueling the altcoin rally.
