This market is starting to summon the lighthearted take on a mullet haircut: business in the front, party in the back. BTC.CM= YTD mountain Bitcoin, YTD Every bullish argument for bitcoin comes down to "More people will soon have more ways to buy more of it." I've tracked the interplay between bitcoin and Nvidia shares for a while. The market's immediate response was simply to allow Nvidia to hold onto the $2.3 trillion in market value it's added this year, but not to pile on more. Meaning the current pace of new money entering these funds is not as heavy relative to total market value as it was nearly four years ago.

Inside the Quest to Make Fusion Energy a Reality
  + stars: | 2024-11-15 | by ( Raymond Zhong | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +15 min
The Quest to Build a Star on Earth Start-ups say we’re closer than ever to near-limitless, zero-carbon energy from fusion. Today’s fusion start-ups aren’t just preparing for this moment in the lab. Such advances helped the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory produce more fusion energy than the energy in the incoming laser beams, for the briefest of moments, in 2022. They also helped European researchers generate record amounts of fusion energy at a facility in Britain last year. What worries researchers is how much some fusion start-ups are promising, and how soon.
