🔎 New UAE startup offers $20M for smartphone zero-days
Advanced Security Solutions, a newly launched firm in the UAE, is offering up to $20 million for tools that can hack any smartphone via text message - one of the highest publicly known bounties in the zero-day market.
🔸 $20M for universal smartphone exploits; $15M for iOS or Android zero-days
🔸 $10M for Windows, $5M for Chrome, $1M for Safari/Edge
🔸 Claims cooperation with 25+ governments and intelligence agencies
🔸Staffed by veterans of elite intelligence units and private military contractors
🔸 Refuses to disclose owners, funding, or customer list
The zero-day market has ballooned in the last decade - from $1M iPhone exploits in 2015 to today’s $20M offers.
But with anonymous buyers and state-level stakes, the ethical questions are growing just as fast as the payouts.📊 Powered by Crypto Insider

💻 Bending Spoons: the brand resuscitator
Based in Milan, Bending Spoons isn’t a VC fund or a quick flipper, it buys mature digital products, puts in its own operators, and revives them with new growth.
Recent €500M debt raise (≈€1B total so far) fuels even more acquisitions, backed by JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, and HSBC. Their playbook: pick strong brands with PMF, then optimize from code to unit economics.
Chances are you’ve already used something in their portfolio:
🔸 Remini: boosted revenue, added video generation
🔸 Evernote: redesign + stabilized sync
🔸 StreamYard: better UX and integrations
🔸 WeTransfer: stronger team, API upgrades
🔸 Komoot: new markets + offline mode
Named after the Matrix spoon-bending scene - the idea is that reality itself can bend if you know how. And they seem to be proving it by reanimating products most others would have written off.
So which “dead” product would you send to their rehab ward?📊 Powered by Crypto Insider

❗️ Vlad Tenev admits remote-first was a mistake
Robinhood’s founder says declaring the company remote-first in 2022 was “the wrong decision”, and one he regretted almost immediately.
Now the firm runs on an office-heavy model:
🔸 Executives in-office 5 days a week
🔸 Managers 4 days
🔸 Individual contributors 3 days
Tenev’s logic: leaders should take on more pain than their teams.

⚡️ The only mega-prompt you need for ChatGPT
A Redditor claims to have solved the biggest issue with LLMs - human imprecision.
Since 92% of the quality of an answer depends on how well you frame the question, this prompt flips the process: ChatGPT does the clarifying, you just confirm.
The structure is simple:
You are to act as my prompt engineer. I would like to accomplish: [insert your task]. Please repeat this back to me in your own words, and ask any clarifying questions. I will answer those. This process will repeat until we both confirm you have an exact understanding, and only then will you generate the final prompt.Instead of struggling with wording, you let the AI drill down, refine, and finally output the sharpest possible version. 📊 Powered by Crypto Insider

🔗 Neuralink faces a rival with ultrasound and gene therapy
Merge Labs, linked to Sam Altman and OpenAI, is exploring sonogenetics, using gene therapy to make brain cells responsive to ultrasound.
Instead of electrodes, a tiny implanted emitter would read and modulate neural activity through modified cells.
🔸 Plans to raise $250M at $850M valuation, with OpenAI’s venture arm as a key backer
🔸 Altman is co-founder but not an investor; Musk’s Neuralink remains focused on electrical implants
🔸 Altman hinted at a broader vision: “think — and instantly get an answer from ChatGPT”
🔸 Other players in ultrasound neuromodulation include Nudge ($100M, Fred Ehrsam) and a Reid Hoffman–backed startup ($12M)
🔸 Merge’s approach could unlock a new class of brain–computer interfaces, though clinical use is likely years away
The bet isn’t just medical - it’s about enhancing cognition itself.📊 Powered by Crypto Insider

🫂 AI brings back in-person job interviews
Companies are shifting away from Zoom and back to face-to-face meetings. Reason: too many candidates lean on AI to cheat during online interviews — especially in technical roles.
🔸 Google, Cisco, and McKinsey have reinstated live stages
🔸 At Google, even coding interviews are back in person
🔸 McKinsey says it’s about seeing how candidates connect in real life
🔸 FBI warns of bigger risks - deepfakes, fake profiles, and workers posing as others with AI help
The return to old-school interviews shows that sometimes the best filter is still human presence.📊 Powered by Crypto Insider

💡 Don’t fall in love with your MVP
Many founders get too attached to their first version. But an MVP is only a starting point, not the final product.
🔸 Early Airbnb had no payments or maps
🔸 Twitch began as a livestream of a founder’s daily life
🔸 Stripe launched as “devpayments,” just an API for developers
Your MVP is like homework from first grade, useful at the time, but not worth clinging to. The real journey is in what comes after.📊 Powered by Crypto Insider

🤖 China unveils plan for pregnancy humanoid robot
Kaiwa Technology in Guangzhou is working on the world’s first humanoid robot with an artificial womb.
The machine is designed to carry a fetus through full gestation using artificial amniotic fluid and nutrient delivery, a prototype is expected by 2026, priced under $14K.
🔸 The concept was presented at the 2025 World Robot Conference in Beijing
🔸 Founder Zhang Qifeng says discussions with regulators in Guangdong are already underway
🔸 Artificial womb tech has been tested before - premature lambs were successfully grown in “biobags” in 2017
🔸 This leap aims to move from partial incubation toward full-term artificial gestation
🔸 The announcement has sparked both ethical concerns and interest as a potential solution for infertility
The project sits at the intersection of biotech and robotics, and raises a bigger question:
how far should we go in outsourcing the most human processes to machines?📊 Powered by Crypto Insider

🔸 Distance: 1.5 km in 6 minutes 34 seconds.
🔸 Event: part of the competition’s endurance category.
Good thing there’s no robot biathlon yet - we’d rather keep the rifles away.📊 Powered by Crypto Insider

🚀 The video that kept Perplexity’s CEO going
When asked what helped him push through the early days before any big wins, Perplexity CEO Aravind Srinivas didn’t name a mentor or a business book. He said: “A video of Elon Musk.”
🔸 The clip shows a reporter pressing Musk about failed rocket launches - trying to get under his skin.
🔸 Musk’s answer: “I never give up.”
🔸 That moment became Aravind’s personal reset button whenever things got tough.
So, no heavy startup tips this Friday, just a shot of raw motivation.
Here’s the video that fires him up every time

🧲 Vulcan Elements takes on China’s rare-earth magnet dominance
Vulcan Elements is building a high-energy magnet plant in North Carolina to supply EVs, energy, and industrial markets, aiming to localize a supply chain now 90% controlled by China.

🔸 Pilot line and R&D already operational; team reportedly just 18 people despite the high-tech nature of the work.
🔸 Recently raised $65M to scale production and secure stable supply for OEMs.
The big question - will US buyers pay a premium for local supply, or will price still outweigh independence?📊 Powered by Crypto Insider

🚀 NASA kicks off the race for a “Martian internet”
NASA will no longer build its own Mars data relays - instead, it plans to buy communications “as a service,” just like it does for astronaut transport.
The goal: a full system to move data from the Martian surface, through orbit, and back to Earth.
🔸 Current Mars data comes via aging orbiters like MRO and MAVEN
🔸 New commercial solutions are needed before these satellites fail
🔸 Blue Origin is developing an orbital relay based on Blue Ring (launch planned for 2028)
🔸 Rocket Lab and SpaceX are also in the race - SpaceX wants to adapt Starlink for Mars comms
If successful, this could create the backbone of a true interplanetary internet.📊 Powered by Crypto Insider
