当下最热门的App是哪个?
估计不少会说Clubhouse,这个App目前估值达到10亿美元,在不到一年的时间里就成为独角兽。
据悉,Clubhouse由PaulDavison和前谷歌员工RohanSeth共同开发,在去年4月上线,目前采用邀请制注册,已拥有超过200万用户。
2月1日,埃隆·马斯克首次登录了Clubhouse,并参加了一场a16z聊天室问答活动。与他一起聊天的嘉宾,还包括知名风投公司A16Z的联合创始人MarcAndreessen、知名天使投资人SriramKrishnan等。
在2月1日的分享中,马斯克分享了有关比特币及区块链、GameStop、Robinhood等热门话题。
比特币与狗狗币
关于比特币,马斯克提到2013年,一个朋友用比特币给他送了一块蛋糕。
他表示:"我应该在8年前就买它,在这一点上,比特币是个好东西。我是一个支持者。我加入的时间比较晚,但我支持它。"
马斯克另外提到,很明显比特币正在被传统金融界接受。
"我对其加密他货币没有什么意见。"但他表示狗狗币最开始是作为MEME来取笑加密货币的,但"命运就是喜欢讽刺"。
而在马斯克分享的观点中,他提到自己非常喜欢混乱。"最有趣的结果是最有可能的。"他说最讽刺的结果是狗狗币成为未来的通用货币。
不过马斯克另外提到他之前开了一个关于比特币的玩笑,很快他的Twitter账户被封了。
马斯克把他带回来:“人们要求答案,他们想知道真相。”
Gamestop与Robinhood
戏剧性转折,随着RobinhoodCEO——VladTenev的到来出现。
马斯克直接问Vlad:来告诉我们到底发生了什么,是不是有什么内幕?
马斯克所指的事情,是上周“Gamestop事件”之后,Robinhood宣布对包括游戏驿站GameStop和电影院线AMC等多支股票限制交易,仅允许用户卖出股票,并调高了对部分个股的保证金的要求。
此举令Robinhood遭到集体诉讼。用户要求Robinhood赔偿因交易中断所带来的损失。Robinhood在周五一度放松限制。
Vlad对此的回复道:上周四凌晨3:30,我们的运营团队从NSCC(国家证券结算公司)那里收到了一份文件。这就是Robinhood的用武之地。我们必须根据一些因素向NSCC注资,包括某些证券的交易活动的波动性。所以,他们给了我们一份存款文件,要求大约30亿美元,你知道,这比通常的数额高出了一个数量级。”
马斯克对Vlad的回复似乎更加感兴趣,很专业的追问了一系列问题,包括“这30亿美元是怎么算出来的?”、“凌晨3:30收到邮件,很可疑啊”、“有人要挟你吗?”……
对这样穷追不舍的盘问,Vlad最后只能草草回复道:有点阴谋论了。

马斯克财富超越巴菲特,两人对比特币的看法截然不同:特斯拉CEO、亿万富翁埃隆·马斯克(Elon Musk)的财富在周五飙升,这让他比亿万富翁投资者沃伦·巴菲特(Warren Buffett)更富有。据彭博社报道,特斯拉股价上涨11%后,马斯克的财富猛增61亿美元,彭博亿万富豪指数显示马斯克的净资产达到705亿美元,而巴菲特的净资产为692亿美元。
两人对比特币和货币的未来持有截然不同的看法,巴菲特一直批评比特币,称其为“老鼠药的平方”,并且毫无独特价值。即使波场CEO孙宇晨与巴菲特共进晚餐,并送了他1枚比特币,巴菲特也并没有改变主意。另一方面,马斯克赞赏其“相当聪明”,他在5月份承认自己持有0.25 BTC。(Decrypt)[2020/7/12]
