Just in from Dan Ives on Tesla’s Robotaxi launch today in Austin TX: Dan Ives of Wedbush has released a new note after riding in Tesla Robotaxis today in Austin: "This afternoon we attended Tesla's Robotaxi launch in Austin, TX and got the opportunity to take multiple rides in a Robotaxi. There was a Tesla Operator sitting in the front passenger seat of the Robotaxi, but they were not permitted to comment on anything nor did they influence the car in any way. Going into it, we expected to be impressed but walking away from it, all there is to say is that this is the future. We took two approximately 15 minute rides around Austin and the key takeaways are that it was a comfortable, safe, and personalized experience. The ride itself was completely smooth, and it was indistinguishable that the car was driverless as there was never a moment in the vehicle where we felt as if it did something irrational. The interior features two touchscreen panels: one in the front and one in the back row above the AC vent. The back row panel is able to integrate with the user's Tesla account and sync with their Robotaxi app and automatically loads the user's content onto a suite of apps including Apple Music, Netflix, Spotify, Hulu, Disney +, and more. We took a route through a park with dirt roads and traffic cones, yet the car was able to navigate perfectly and picked us up right at our exact location. To really put it into perspective, there was a moment where we drove up a narrow road going up a hill with cars parked on both sides with oncoming traffic and people opening their car doors into the road and the Robotaxi masterfully maneuvered with patience and safety among this chaos. We maintain our OUTPERFORM and $500 PT. The $1 trillion autonomous journey begins. Today's successful Robotaxi launch is really just the beginning of the Tesla AI story. The Robotaxi's we experienced today were foundational, and there is a path for the future where these Robotaxis may also have Grok integration, interior customization, and a much more user-centric focus as there's no longer a need to focus on the driver experience. Eventually, when there are enough Robotaxis out there, they may be able to communicate with each other and coordinate to offer an even more efficient travel experience. Overall, these Robotaxis exceeded our expectations and offered a seamless and personalized travel experience that has lit the spark for autonomous driving."

And Powell just said everything is fine 🤡

GM. Great news on the tariffs front. Reduced to 30% on most China goods and 10% on the most USA goods. Markets are ripping. Negotiations are working.

It's hard for me to understand why Bitcoiners hate on Alt coins so much. Come on people, they are the gateway drug to Bitcoin.

GM. May your day be filled with abundance of all things wanted 🌹

The woman in India own more gold then the United States government owns.

Arizona Democratic Governor Hobbs vetoed the bill on Friday, so Arizona is out for now. Texas has seven active bills. North Carolina wants to invest up to 10% of its assets and is waiting for the full legislative vote. Alabama is under house review. New Hampshire passed the Senate committee to allow the treasury to invest in Bitcoin.

To get a very clear signal of what people are doing with their money in times of uncertainty like we are seeing today, looking at Bitcoin dominance and USTD and USDC dominance is helpful because Bitcoin is no longer the only place people are fleeing to anymore. They are also sitting in cash, on the sidelines in stablecoins. Right now we’re at ~72%. That means about 72% of all crypto is parked in either Bitcoin, USDT, or USDC. In the last cycle, this number peaked at 75%—right before the market flipped, and altcoins had their run. It will be interesting to watch what happens this time around. I have a feeling that things are going to be different.
