Bloomberg: OpenAI's valuation reaches $500 billion, surpassing SpaceX and possibly second only to Tether's valuation

PANews reported on October 2nd that Bloomberg, citing sources familiar with the matter, reported that artificial intelligence company OpenAI's valuation reached $500 billion in a new round of secondary stock sales, surpassing SpaceX, which is valued at approximately $400 billion, to become the world's largest startup. In this round of transactions, current and former employees sold $6.6 billion worth of stock to investors including Thrive Capital, SoftBank, and MGX. The report noted that compared to other crypto companies, OpenAI's $500 billion valuation far surpasses Coinbase (approximately $89 billion), as well as companies like Ripple and Circle. Its closest crypto competitor may be stablecoin issuer Tether. Artemis' CEO estimated in June that Tether's valuation could reach $515 billion if it went public.

A Gonzo Plan To Beat China With Giant Robot Boats

A Gonzo Plan To Beat China With Giant Robot Boats

The post A Gonzo Plan To Beat China With Giant Robot Boats appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Autonomous speedboat designer Saronic aims to use its fat warchest to build America’s largest shipyard and help the US to once again dominate commercial and military shipbuilding. Ona muggy August morning in the sugar cane fields of Franklin, Louisiana, a group of executives from Saronic’s Austin headquarters stood sweating in blazers. Alongside them: local politicians and shipyard workers in teal shirts and steel-toed boots—employees whose jobs had been saved from closure by the well-funded builder of robotic speedboats. As they watched, CEO Dino Mavrookas donned a fireproof coat and gloves, pulled on a welder’s mask, and, in a shower of sparks, carefully spot-welded the company emblem onto the aluminum keel of the largest vessel the three-year-old startup has attempted to build: the 150-foot-long Marauder. Saronic designed the unmanned vessel to carry two 40-foot cargo containers up to 3,500 miles at 30% less cost than a crewed ship. Conceptually, it’s ideal for shuttling commercial cargo to smaller U.S. ports. But for now, it’s too expensive to ferry supplies during wartime to U.S. troops spread out across the Pacific — or deliver a boatload of hurt from missile launchers. The way the genial Mavrookas sees it, Marauder is a major step toward reclaiming maritime dominance for the United States. By removing crews—and all the systems needed to support human life onboard—he argues that Saronic can make ships simpler, faster, and cheaper to build, potentially jumpstarting America’s withered shipbuilding industry. “We don’t just want to compete with the Chinese,” he told Forbes. “We want to outbuild the Chinese.” The 44-year-old former Navy SEAL is facing long odds. Over the past two decades, China, through low labor costs and heavy state investments, has risen from an afterthought to become the world’s dominant shipbuilder. It now produces 53% of the world’s commercial ships, according to…

Chainlink Price Rose Too Fast According To Experts As Remittix Sets Sights On $5 In October From Just $0.1130

Chainlink Price Rose Too Fast According To Experts As Remittix Sets Sights On $5 In October From Just $0.1130

The post Chainlink Price Rose Too Fast According To Experts As Remittix Sets Sights On $5 In October From Just $0.1130 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News Chainlink has drawn attention after a swift rally that some experts say overshot sustainable levels. Analysts argue the pace of LINK’s surge may have pulled forward gains prematurely. Meanwhile, Remittix (RTX) is aiming high, targeting $5 in October from its current $0.11 valuation, a bold goal that positions it as a contender for the “best crypto to buy” narrative. ] LINK’s Rapid Ascent Under Scrutiny Some analysts warn that Chainlink’s price appreciation has been too aggressive. Since LINK touched the $25 to $26 mark, it pulled back and is now tightening up around $22. That tells us that the market may be taking a breather and reassessing whether or not that upward move was sustainable. Technical charts show consolidation, with signals that momentum could stall unless fresh catalysts enter. Given how fast LINK moved, a sharp retracement remains possible if bulls lose control. Remittix Aiming for $5 While LINK Races LINK’s rally signals appetite for growth tokens, but Remittix is carving its own lane with a $5 target this October. While Chainlink depends on oracle infrastructure and integration narratives, Remittix is building a payments engine intended to operate across real financial rails. That gives Remittix a more direct path to real user adoption rather than relying purely on protocol usage. Remittix has sold over 673 million tokens, is priced at $0.1130 and has raised over $26.9 million. Its team is now verified by CertiK, with Remittix ranked #1 on CertiK for Pre-Launch Tokens, underlining a high standard of security and transparency. The wallet beta is active with community testers giving feedback. The 15% USDT referral program allows instant daily claims via the dashboard. It also has a $250,000 giveaway, which increases adoption. Having unlocked funding milestones above $20 million and $22 million, Remittix has already secured two centralized…

Musk becomes first person in history to surpass $500 billion in net worth

PANews reported on October 2nd that the world's richest man, Elon Musk, has surpassed $500 billion in personal wealth, becoming the first person in history to cross this threshold. This is largely due to a rebound in Tesla's stock price and the soaring valuations of the tech entrepreneur's other startups. According to the Forbes Rich List, as of 4:15 PM ET, Musk's net worth reached $500.1 billion, but has now fallen back below $500 billion. According to data from BitcoinTreasuries, Tesla currently holds 11,509 bitcoins, and SpaceX, another space technology company associated with Musk, holds 8,285 bitcoins.

Injective Will Now Let Traders Bet on OpenAI With Leverage

Injective Will Now Let Traders Bet on OpenAI With Leverage

Injective has introduced perpetual futures markets for private equity, opening direct exposure to fast-growing companies such as OpenAI, SpaceX, and Anthropic. The blockchain network announced Wednesday that retail traders can now speculate on valuations traditionally reserved for venture funds and private equity giants. The launch signals a radical shift in how investors approach high-profile private markets. Until now, access to shares in major pre-IPO firms was confined to institutions and select accredited investors. By putting these futures on-chain, Injective is betting on a surge of demand from global traders eager to gain exposure to high-growth startups before public listings. How Injective’s Futures Let Traders Bet on OpenAI and SpaceX Unlike traditional derivatives, perpetual futures do not expire. Traders can hold positions indefinitely. The first contracts highlight access to OpenAI, SpaceX, Anthropic, and Perplexity, four of the most closely watched private companies in tech. Injective said the contracts reflect estimated valuations of private firms, giving exposure without actual share ownership. “We are starting with access to pre-IPO OpenAI shares through apps such as Helix Markets. Additional companies will be added throughout October,” the company said on X. Other names slated for inclusion include xAI, Revolut, Monzo, Airtable, and Notion. These startups are valued in the tens of billions. According to Injective, data and AI startups alone raised more than $100 billion in 2024. The project builds on Injective’s August partnership with Republic, a New York-based investment platform. Republic has explored tokenized instruments called “Mirror Tokens.” The alliance aims to bridge retail capital and private equity flows. $2.3B Weekly Trading Shows Private Market Demand Injective reported $1 billion worth of real-world asset futures traded on its chain in the past 30 days. According to DeFiLlama, Injective’s perpetual futures processed $2.30 billion in trading over the last 7 days. Daily activity exceeded $803 million, showing strong demand for real-world asset exposure. Industry observers note that if adoption continues, the model could spread to other sectors such as fintech and biotech. Still, risks remain. Valuations of private firms are opaque. This raises concerns over fair pricing and volatility. Market participants warn that without transparent benchmarks, contracts could swing wildly. The U.S. SEC has also pointed to the challenges of valuing pre-IPO equity, underscoring regulatory sensitivities. Even so, Injective’s expansion signals the next phase of tokenized assets. It makes private equity investable for anyone with a crypto wallet. Analysts say the next few months, as firms such as xAI and Revolut are added, will show if the experiment gains lasting traction or remains a niche play. Injective performance over the past year. Source: BeInCrypto On the day, Injective (INJ) rose 5.2% to trade at $12.58. The recent peak was $52.6 on March 14, 2024.
