  • Analyze how tech elites and alternative media influenced the 2024 election
  • Explore why markets and crypto prices surged following Trump's victory
  • Understand the potential regulatory changes that could benefit startups and Big Tech
  • Consider the risks of increased political and economic volatility under Trump
