HyperChange

We're schemin! Elon Musk is living in a Boxabl house in Starbase, Texas. Is this a fun fact, or clue about Tesla's next crazy product line/acquisition? Maybe a little of both. Boxabl's $50,000 Casita could be the future of housing on Earth and Mars ... combining it with Tesla engineers, smart HVAC, solarroof, Starlink and a battery = the future of carbon neutral living. What do you think? Is Tesla getting ready to acquire Boxabl? Would you buy Boxabl if you were Elon?

Elon Musk continues to hint about scaling up Tesla's HVAC technology into homes. I think this could be Tesla's next big unannounced product line. Between 40-50% of household energy consumption comes from heating and cooling. Tesla has the opportunity to install more energy efficient systems, combined with smart heating/cooling, and air filtration to hyperchange this industry. I think Tesla is working on an HVAC product, and maybe a full smarthome offering (where they build a house with a solar roof, powerwall, starlink and HVAC) ... What are your thoughts about this moonshot? Do you think Elon will put these Tesla HVAC ambitions into motion?

The story of my craziest investment ever ... how Venmoing my friend Mike Demarais $60 in May 2019 for a pair of limited edition crypto socks (Unisocks) would turn into $91,777 today, a solid 152,691% return in about two years. Unisocks have turned into a piece of blockchain history! What are your thoughts on this ridiculousness?

Ford's push to electrify its flagship F150 is admirable. The EV era is upon us. Seeing Tesla inspire legacy automotive to go all in on EVs, and electrify their best-selling most profitable product, is incredible! Elon's mission has been accomplished! Whether you think the Cybertruck is better or not, there's no denying that Ford's F150 Lightning is good for the planet. It pushes customers, suppliers and competition away from fossil fuels ... that is great. I've been critical of many legacy auto EVs in the past (like the Porsche Taycan, and Mach-E, and Ford Lightning), because I think they are very overpriced for their battery/drivetrain/software technology ... at least relative to Tesla. But for the auto industry? Compared to an ICE vehicle? There's no doubt this new EV push is a good thing. So I'm making this video to say props to Ford for making the bold move, and good luck! You're going to need it!!

Interview with Akash Nigam, CEO of Genies, the custom digital avatar startup. Initially for celebrities like Justin Beiber and Jared Goff, Genies has just raised $65M to bring its technology to the masses. When you think about where the world is going, Ready Player One, Neuralink, and our general shift towards deeper immersion in the metaverse ... Genies is at the forefront. Allowing customers to express themselves and connect in ways that we've never seen before. This is my newest startup investment (shoutout Niv!), and I can't wait to see what Genies does next!!

Tesla's Cybertruck has unofficially crossed 1M net reservations/pre-orders. This represents a ~$60B backlog. Tesla's Cybertruck reservations spiked after the Ford F-150 Lightning EV unveiling. In this video I break down how the electric pickup industry will unfold as the Cybertruck and Ford Lightning go head to head. Hint: I think Ford is going to have a very tough road ahead. With worse specs all around, no SuperCharging or FSD/Autopilot ... I know I'm sticking to my Cybertruck order lol.

nterview with Rally CEO George Leimer. Rally just raised a $30M Series B to  fulfill its mission of making everything in the world a tradeable asset. I've seen Rally scale from classic cars to a dozen categories, and think this company is poised to become a massive platform as it securitizes everything from sports cards, to art, to the declaration of independence to Boring Company Flamethrowers, or even Tesla Tequila!!

Let's say SpaceX broke the internet and announced they were doing an IPO. How much do you think they would be worth? In this moonshot, I breakdown SpaceX's business model, from government contracts and launches to Starlink's internet service. And show you how I arrive at a multi hundred billion valuation for Elon Musk's rocket company. Leave your guess on SpaceX's valuation in the comments below!

Elon Musk has announced that Tesla has suspended vehicle purchases using Bitcoin due to the network's increasing energy consumption. Additionally, he just tweet that he's working with Dogecoin developers to make that network more efficient. Just two days ago, he put out a poll asking his followers whether or not Tesla should allow Doge as payment. The response was an overwhelming yes (78.2% on ~4M votes). Now it's anybody's guess what Elon Musk/Tesla's next crypto move will be .. what's you're take? Is Elon trying to ditch Bitcoin for Doge?

Elon Musk is set to appear on Saturday Night Live (SNL) on May 8th!! Will he mention Dogecoin!? Seriously though, Elon Musk is the 23rd most followed Twitter account in the world, and gaining millions of followers per month. Additionally, on Google Trends he is more searched for than Taylor Swift or Kim Kardashian!! This is a major X factor in Elon's empire, his brand/celeb status = free marketing dollars and exposure for his vision! It's so cool to watch the internet support Elon and his companies that are building a brighter future. When do you think Elon will hit 100M Twitter followers??
