This week on Great Chat, we talk about the biggest IPO in history, the wealth to follow, and what people from prior liquidity events in our industry have learned about money, identity, and happiness. We also cover venture-backed M&A activity, revisit "why Twitter is not real life," and hypothesize how Anthropic will recover from its current fall.

Mercury is back as the headline sponsor for year two of Great Chat. Mercury is a financial technology company, not a bank. Banking services provided through Choice Financial Group, Column N.A., and Evolve Bank & Trust; Members FDIC.
