And many experts see bitcoin as a store of value, like gold, rather than a currency.\n“Then beyond that, I think [bitcoin] continues up because there are only 21 million of them,” says Draper. By virtue of its code, only 21 million bitcoin can be “mined.” So far, more than 18 million bitcoin are already in circulation.\nDraper, 63, who built his fortune by making early investments in Twitter, Skype,Tesla and SpaceX (to name a few), wouldn’t share how much bitcoin he holds or whether he has invested in other cryptocurrencies.\n“There must be something to dogecoin because it makes us all smile but no engineers are working on it,” Drapers says. (Though, Elon Musk tweeted in May he was working with “Doge devs to improve system transaction efficiency. Potentially promising.”)\n“I tend to focus on the ones where people are dedicating their lives to improving the currency.”\nDraper says most engineers are working on improving bitcoin right now.Last week,bitcoin got its first upgrade in four years, called Taproot. Due to take effect in November, the change will reportedly mean greater transaction privacy and efficiency. It is also meant to unlock the potential for smart contracts on the bitcoin blockchain,CNBC reported.\nBitcoin “is sort of like Microsoft [in] the software world or Amazon [in] the e-commerce world,” Draper says. He believes bitcoin will be the center of all financial activity for the next two to three decades.\nHowever, bitcoin’s value is volatile, and there are concerns over its enormous energy usage. For this and other reasons, experts recommend only investing as much money in bitcoin as you can afford to lose.\nHundreds of billions of dollars were wiped off of the cryptocurrency after Elon Musk tweeted in May that he was suspending bitcoin purchases at Tesla over environmental concerns.\n\n“Elon, first of all, is one of the most brilliant men in the world...maybe the most brilliant, [but] he got this one wrong,” Draper said last week. (A Tesla spokesperson did not immediately respond to CNBC Make It’s request for comment.)\nDraper points out that big banks have their own environmental issues.\nOn Sunday, Musk tweeted that Tesla would accept bitcoin again when at least half of it can be mined using clean energy.\nBitcoin rose more than 7%, nearing $40,000 on Monday, according to Coinbase.

Bids from those investors exceeded $4 billion, some of the people said.</p>\n<p>But only about $1 billion of those bids were filled, one of the people said, suggesting that many current Stripe shareholders believe their stock has a long way to climb. Among the largest buyers were mutual-fund giant Capital Group Cos., venture-capital firm Sequoia Capital, e-commerce company&nbsp;Shopify&nbsp;Inc.&nbsp;and buyout firm Silver Lake, some of the people said.</p>\n<p>Silicon Valley is awash with investors looking for new places to park their money, partly because low interest rates have made some traditional investments unappealing. Stripe, in particular, has garnered interest because&nbsp;it has been turbocharged&nbsp;by the coronavirus-fueled boom in online shopping. After a fundraising round in March, it became the&nbsp;most valuable private company in Silicon Valley, valued at $95 billion.</p>\n<p>The tender offer, which settled last month, was done at a price around where Stripe sold shares in March, some of the people said.</p>\n<p>Tender offers have become a popular way for startup investors to amass larger holdings outside of more traditional fundraisings. SoftBank Group Corp., for example, acquired nearly $7 billion of shares in Uber Technologies Inc. in&nbsp;a 2017 tender offer, when Uber was still a private company.</p>\n<p>Many of the large participants in Stripe’s tender offer boosted existing stakes. Shopify, for instance, has now invested more than $350 million in Stripe over a number of transactions, a person close to Shopify said. Shopify is one of Stripe’s largest payment-processing customers, and starting this year Shopify rolled out&nbsp;bank accounts and debit cards to its merchants&nbsp;through a Stripe program.</p>\n<p>The tender offer should relieve some pressure that the company faced from employees and investors to go public sooner rather than later. Stripe has been laying the groundwork for an initial public offering that it could pursue in late 2021 or early 2022, The Wall Street Journal previously reported.</p>\n<p>Stock options at many startups, including Stripe, often expire 10 years after they are granted. Employees who joined the firm shortly after its founding, which was around 2010, have worried that some of their options would expire before an IPO.</p>\n<p>Stripe has discouraged employees from selling shares in private transactions that it didn’t arrange, while the ones it did arrange mostly restricted former employees from participating and limited how much current employees could sell, people familiar with the company said.</p>\n<p>Those restrictions were lifted for the new tender offer, the people said. But that doesn’t mean every employee was able to take part. A few years ago, Stripe switched its stock-based compensation plans to restricted stock units that don’t vest until a public listing, the people said. Only stock that has vested could be tendered in the offer, so more recent employees were largely left out.</p>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Investors Clamor for a Bigger Piece of Payments Company Stripe</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nInvestors Clamor for a Bigger Piece of Payments Company Stripe\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-06-15 07:10 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.wsj.com/articles/investors-clamor-for-a-bigger-piece-of-payments-company-stripe-11623668400?mod=hp_lista_pos3><strong>The Wall Street Journal</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Shopify, Sequoia Capital and others recently bought about $1 billion of shares in fintech Stripe, which could go public late this year or next\nStripe Inc. became the most valuable private company in ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.wsj.com/articles/investors-clamor-for-a-bigger-piece-of-payments-company-stripe-11623668400?mod=hp_lista_pos3\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{"SHOP":"Shopify Inc"},"source_url":"https://www.wsj.com/articles/investors-clamor-for-a-bigger-piece-of-payments-company-stripe-11623668400?mod=hp_lista_pos3","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1188727129","content_text":"Shopify, Sequoia Capital and others recently bought about $1 billion of shares in fintech Stripe, which could go public late this year or next\nStripe Inc. became the most valuable private company in Silicon Valley after a fundraising round in March.\nStripe Inc. has yet to go public, but investors are still craving a piece of it.\nThe company, which processes payments for e-commerce businesses, recently offered investors the chance to acquire sizable stakes in the company from existing shareholders, including current and former Stripe employees, according to people familiar with the transaction.

Stripe, in particular, has garnered interest because it has been turbocharged by the coronavirus-fueled boom in online shopping. After a fundraising round in March, it became the most valuable private company in Silicon Valley, valued at $95 billion.\nThe tender offer, which settled last month, was done at a price around where Stripe sold shares in March, some of the people said.\nTender offers have become a popular way for startup investors to amass larger holdings outside of more traditional fundraisings. SoftBank Group Corp., for example, acquired nearly $7 billion of shares in Uber Technologies Inc. in a 2017 tender offer, when Uber was still a private company.\nMany of the large participants in Stripe’s tender offer boosted existing stakes. Shopify, for instance, has now invested more than $350 million in Stripe over a number of transactions, a person close to Shopify said. Shopify is one of Stripe’s largest payment-processing customers, and starting this year Shopify rolled out bank accounts and debit cards to its merchants through a Stripe program.\nThe tender offer should relieve some pressure that the company faced from employees and investors to go public sooner rather than later. Stripe has been laying the groundwork for an initial public offering that it could pursue in late 2021 or early 2022, The Wall Street Journal previously reported.\nStock options at many startups, including Stripe, often expire 10 years after they are granted. Employees who joined the firm shortly after its founding, which was around 2010, have worried that some of their options would expire before an IPO.\nStripe has discouraged employees from selling shares in private transactions that it didn’t arrange, while the ones it did arrange mostly restricted former employees from participating and limited how much current employees could sell, people familiar with the company said.\nThose restrictions were lifted for the new tender offer, the people said. But that doesn’t mean every employee was able to take part. A few years ago, Stripe switched its stock-based compensation plans to restricted stock units that don’t vest until a public listing, the people said. Only stock that has vested could be tendered in the offer, so more recent employees were largely left out.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":354,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":184625854,"gmtCreate":1623713680878,"gmtModify":1634029830462,"author":{"id":"3584007337731235","authorId":"3584007337731235","name":"Ringading","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3584007337731235","authorIdStr":"3584007337731235"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/184625854","repostId":"1126626020","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":279,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":184627749,"gmtCreate":1623713729781,"gmtModify":1634029828176,"author":{"id":"3584007337731235","authorId":"3584007337731235","name":"Ringading","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3584007337731235","authorIdStr":"3584007337731235"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/184627749","repostId":"1107864485","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1107864485","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623711844,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1107864485?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-15

POINTS\n\nAmerican Express CEO told CNBC that travel bookings have nearly reached their 2019 levels.\n“When we look at our travel numbers, our travel bookings in May were 95% of what they were in May of 2019,” he said in a “Mad Money” interview.\nThe credit company is seeing a rebound in restaurant spending, too.\n\nAmericans are increasingly tapping their credit lines as Covid-19 health restrictions ease and travel demand ramps back up,American Express CEO Steve Squeri told CNBC on Monday.\nThe payments company, known for its namesake credit card, reports seeing a near-full recovery in domestic travel bookings after the industry was hamstrung by Covid lockdowns.\n“When we look at our travel numbers, our travel bookings in May were 95% of what they were in May of 2019,” Squeri said in an interview with Jim Cramer on “Mad Money.”\n“We also believe that by the end of the year in the U.S. we will have a full consumer recovery from a travel perspective, and overall by the end of the year I think globally we’ll probably be about 80% of what we were in 2019,” he added.\nThe Transportation Security Administration screened 2.03 million people at airports on Friday,the first time in 15 months that more than 2 million passengers have passed through checkpoints in a single day.\nStill, that’s just 74% of travel volumes on the same day in 2019, according to the agency.\nAmerican Express is seeing a rebound in restaurant spending, too, Squeri said, with May dining expenses totaling 85% of May 2019 levels.\n“The people that are really spending a lot in restaurants [are] millennials — 130% in April of what they spent back in 2019,” he added. “We believe that that’s going to continue to move forward.”\nDelinquencies at American Express are at their lowest levels in years, and personal savings have doubled, Squeri said.\n“When you look at the U.S. economy right now, I think it’s really starting to come back,” he said. “Credit numbers are not like anybody thought they were going to be.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":115,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":184624220,"gmtCreate":1623713705060,"gmtModify":1634029829359,"author":{"id":"3584007337731235","authorId":"3584007337731235","name":"Ringading","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3584007337731235","authorIdStr":"3584007337731235"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/184624220","repostId":"1197453683","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1197453683","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623712965,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1197453683?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-06-15

venture capitalist and bitcoin investor Tim Draper is sticking by his prediction that bitcoin will reach $250,000 by the end of 2022 or early 2023 despite the cryptocurrency’s wild swings in value and the turmoil around its environmentally unfriendly energy usage.\n“I think I’m going to be right on this one,” Draper tells CNBC Make It.\nDraper first made the bold price prediction back in 2018, at which time bitcoin was trading around $8,000, according to Coinbase.\n“I’m either going to be really right or really wrong [but] I’m pretty sure that it’s going in that direction,” Draper says.\nThat’s because Draper believes the currency is going to be “much more in use by then.”\n“Give it about a year and a half and retailers will all be on Opennode [a bitcoin payment processor], so everybody will accept bitcoin,” Draper predicts.\nCurrently only a few major companies accept bitcoin directly or indirectly through a third-party digital wallet app, including Microsoft, PayPal, Overstock,Whole Foods,Starbucks and Home Depot. And many experts see bitcoin as a store of value, like gold, rather than a currency.\n“Then beyond that, I think [bitcoin] continues up because there are only 21 million of them,” says Draper. By virtue of its code, only 21 million bitcoin can be “mined.” So far, more than 18 million bitcoin are already in circulation.\nDraper, 63, who built his fortune by making early investments in Twitter, Skype,Tesla and SpaceX (to name a few), wouldn’t share how much bitcoin he holds or whether he has invested in other cryptocurrencies.\n“There must be something to dogecoin because it makes us all smile but no engineers are working on it,” Drapers says. (Though, Elon Musk tweeted in May he was working with “Doge devs to improve system transaction efficiency. Potentially promising.”)\n“I tend to focus on the ones where people are dedicating their lives to improving the currency.”\nDraper says most engineers are working on improving bitcoin right now.Last week,bitcoin got its first upgrade in four years, called Taproot. Due to take effect in November, the change will reportedly mean greater transaction privacy and efficiency. It is also meant to unlock the potential for smart contracts on the bitcoin blockchain,CNBC reported.\nBitcoin “is sort of like Microsoft [in] the software world or Amazon [in] the e-commerce world,” Draper says. He believes bitcoin will be the center of all financial activity for the next two to three decades.\nHowever, bitcoin’s value is volatile, and there are concerns over its enormous energy usage. For this and other reasons, experts recommend only investing as much money in bitcoin as you can afford to lose.\nHundreds of billions of dollars were wiped off of the cryptocurrency after Elon Musk tweeted in May that he was suspending bitcoin purchases at Tesla over environmental concerns.\n\n“Elon, first of all, is one of the most brilliant men in the world...maybe the most brilliant, [but] he got this one wrong,” Draper said last week. (A Tesla spokesperson did not immediately respond to CNBC Make It’s request for comment.)\nDraper points out that big banks have their own environmental issues.\nOn Sunday, Musk tweeted that Tesla would accept bitcoin again when at least half of it can be mined using clean energy.\nBitcoin rose more than 7%, nearing $40,000 on Monday, according to Coinbase. In April, it hit an all-time high of $64,829 before hitting a low of $30,000 in May following a 30% intraday crash,according to CNBC.\nIt’s not the first time,Draper has predicted the rise of the price of bitcoin. In 2014, when bitcoin was trading at around $500, he said bitcoin would top $10,000 within three years. In December 2017, bitcoin reached over $10,000, ballooning to a high of more than $18,900 that Dec. 19 before sliding back down to a low of $7,270 in early 2018, according to Coindesk.\nIn 2014, Draper purchased nearly 30,000 bitcoins seized by the U.S. Marshals Services from the now-defunct online black market Silk Road.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":228,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
