Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>), expressed concerns over the rise of political meme coins on Thursday, warning that they could become &#8220;vehicles for unlimited political bribery.&#8221;
What Happened: In an X post, Buterin criticized the current state of the cryptocurrency industry, particularly the increasing popularity of political tokens. 
&#8220;They are not just sources of fun, whose harm is at most contained to mistakes made by voluntary participants; they are vehicles for unlimited political bribery, including from foreign nation states,&#8221; the cryptocurrency mogul said.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">There is perhaps an analogy with weed here. Ten years ago, to many weed represented freedom, and rebellion against sclerotic old order that denied self-sovereignty over our bodies. Then, weed became legalized, and &quot;official&quot;. On that day, I remember my personal interest in weed…

Buterin understood this as a &#8220;new order,&#8221; in which the powerful celebrate the idea that anyone can create tokens for anything, at any scale. 
He believed that this could be a reaction to the old order, in which former SEC Chair Gary Gensler established a regime that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/03/37538468/sec-chair-gary-gensler-declines-to-say-whether-ethereum-is-a-commodity-its-about-circumsta">penalized assets</a> with clear investor rights and transparent revenue streams while rewarding &#8220;obfuscated&#8221; assets.
&#8220;Everything that happened in crypto was in part a response, part compliance, part rebellion, to these pressures,&#8221; Buterin noted.

Why It Matters: While he didn&#8217;t directly name any project, Buterin&#8217;s comments come in the wake of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43078040/trump-coin-tanks-36-even-as-melania-trump-launches-her-own-token-top-analyst-says-his-short-is-going-very-very-well">meme coins</a> drop by President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump last week.
The Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>)-based coins, named Official Trump (TRUMP) and Official Melania (MELANIA), have accumulated tens of billions in combined market valuation, with speculations that the first couple <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43118779/trump-memecoin-regains-momentum-rallies-22-as-the-president-calls-billions-earned-through-the-venture-as-peanuts">may benefit directly</a> from the gains.
Anthony Scaramucci, former White House Communications Director, criticized <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43076714/scaramucci-criticizes-donald-trumps-meme-coin-launch-idi-amin-level-corruption">Trump&#8217;s meme coin launch</a>, labeling it &#8220;Idi Amin-level corruption.&#8221;

Xbox Developer Direct Drops Big Surprises — Ninja Gaiden 4, Doom: The Dark Ages, And New Game Pass Titles: What You Need To Know

Senator Elizabeth Warren&nbsp;(D-Mass.) presented strategies to tech mogul&nbsp;Elon Musk on Thursday&nbsp;on&nbsp;how the newly formed Department&nbsp;of Government Efficiency could&nbsp;potentially cut government spending.
What Happened: Warren outlined as many as 30 recommendations in a <a href="https://www.warren.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/letter_to_doge_rerecommendationstosave2trillionoverthenext10years.pdf">letter </a>to Musk, President Donald Trump&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42848928/elon-musk-spends-nights-several-hundred-feet-from-trump-in-a-2000-a-night-cottage-at-mar-a-lago">close ally</a> and head of the department. One of the prime suggestions was to negotiate better deals for Department of Defense contracts. 
Other proposals included recreating the DoD Renegotiation Board to challenge excess profits, preventing the military from doing civilian jobs, and stopping corporate welfare for DoD contractors.
Warren also urged the transfer of Guantánamo Bay detainees to other countries and take steps to close the &#8220;world's most expensive detention program.&#8221;
She said if acted upon, her recommendations on defense spending would save the government $200 billion in the next 12 years.
The senator&#8217;s next piece of advice was for the federal health care program, Medicare, which included negotiating for lower drug prices, cracking down on Pharmacy Benefit Managers, and addressing the patent abuses by pharmaceutical firms.
At the same time, Warren opposed any steps to cut Medicare benefits, calling such a move &#8220;cruel&#8221; to American citizens.
She also called for closing tax loopholes that benefit big corporations and the rich.

Why It Matters: These recommendations come after Warren&#8217;s previous&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42541351/warren-says-musk-advisor-role-to-president-elect-conflict-of-interest-trump-team-says-senators-societal-impact-is-11024th-of-tesla-ceo">concerns</a> about Musk&#8217;s roles in the Trump administration and his potential conflicts of interest. The senator had said that Musk is the CEO of several companies that have government contracts, including&nbsp;SpaceX&nbsp;and&nbsp;Tesla.
The Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, is an entity<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/11/41927289/trump-appoints-elon-musk-and-vivek-ramaswamy-to-lead-doge-targeting-bureaucracy-and-65-trillion-federal-spending-we-will-not-go-gently" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;tasked with cutting federal spending</a>&nbsp;and abolishing superfluous regulations. However, Musk <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/01/43046108/musks-doge-ambitions-shrink-why-2-trillion-budget-cuts-may-be-out-of-reach">backtracked on his aggressive federal budget-cutting ambitions</a> last week, shifting from saving &#8220;at least&#8221; $2 trillion in election rallies to calling it the &#8220;best-case outcome.&#8221;
DOGE also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43086309/trumps-doge-committee-faces-lawsuit-over-alleged-federal-advisory-violations-and-lack-of-transparency" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">fell into trouble </a>when a barrage of lawsuits was launched against it shortly after Trump took office earlier this week.
Price Action: Meanwhile, Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) was exchanging hands at $0.3459, down 2.40% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
This comes after the iconic Shiba Inu image, which had become a symbol of Dogecoin and the larger meme coin movement, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43140690/dogecoin-drops-6-after-doge-department-removes-logo">was no longer available</a> on the Department of Government Efficiency&#8217;s website.

Elizabeth Warren Lists Changes For Elon Musk's DOGE Department, Urges Guantanamo Closure Due To 'Hundreds of Millions' In Annual Costs

Spotify Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPOT#NYSE">SPOT</a>) co-founder Daniel Ek's body scanning startup has reportedly raised $260 million, bringing its valuation to $1.7 billion.
What Happened: The investment, spearheaded by Lightspeed Venture Partners, is intended to facilitate Neko Health&#8217;s growth into new markets, including the U.S., subject to regulatory approvals, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/c870d156-4f0c-4aa3-813e-87811718e04a">reported</a> the Financial Times on Thursday.
Other investors in this round include Lakestar, Atomico, General Catalyst, and OG Venture Partners.
"The companies we compare ourselves with are the Apples or Teslas of the world, but we're applying it to a very different domain, which is healthcare," Ek told the publication.

Founded in Sweden in 2018 by Ek and Hjalmar Nilsonne, Neko Health provides health check-ups, featuring high-resolution skin scans and blood tests.
Why It Matters: Other companies in the preventive health scanning sector include Ezra and Prenuvo. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has also invested around $180 million in Retro Biosciences, a startup aiming to extend the human lifespan by a decade.
On Thursday, it was also <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/25a473ea-9f87-474a-8729-bc5287df853a">reported</a> that Retro Biosciences is seeking to raise $1 billion in its latest funding round. Altman is expected to invest additional funds during this Series A round.

What Happened: Bitcoin recorded choppy momentum over the last 24 hours, surging to a high of $106,500 in the morning before falling to $103,000 by the evening.
The morning rally was triggered by speculations of an executive order to create a strategic Bitcoin reserve. Eventually, Trump signed an order that will  <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43177482/trump-signs-executive-order-on-crypto-bitcoin-reserve-to-be-evaluated">evaluate the creation</a> of a "strategic national digital asset stockpile."
Additionally, a SEC directive that restricted banks' ability to custody cryptocurrencies<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43181875/another-crypto-friendly-measure-by-trump-sec-revokes-sab-121-policy-that-curtailed-banks-ability-to-custody-digital-assets"> was repealed</a>.
Ethereum surged more than Bitcoin, probably due to expectations of inclusion in the potential digital asset stockpile.
More than $382 million was liquidated from the cryptocurrency market in the last 24 hours, with long liquidations accounting for $262 million. However, Bitcoin's rebound to $107,000 could liquidate nearly $368 million worth of short positions.
More than 50% of trader accounts on Binance placed long positions on Bitcoin, suggesting expectations of a rebound.
The market sentiment remained one of "Greed," according to the Crypto Fear &amp; Greed Index.

The global cryptocurrency market capitalization stood at $3.56 trillion, contracting marginally by 0.17% in the last 24 hours.
Stocks extended their winning streak on Thursday. The S&amp;P 500 rallied 0.53% to close at a new record high of 6,118.71. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lifted 408.34 points, or 0.92%, to end at 44,565.07. The tech-focused Nasdaq Composite gained 0.22%, closing at 20,053.68.
The bump comes after President Donald Trump advocated immediate cuts in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/01/43170854/trump-outlines-economic-reset-at-davos-5-things-you-need-to-know">interest rates</a> during a virtual address at the World Economic Forum 2025.
The market also possibly factored Trump's remarks that corporate taxes will be cut from 21% to 15% for companies that manufacture in the U.S.

Bitcoin, Ethereum Rise, Dogecoin Dips Amid Pro-Crypo Announcements From Trump: Top Trader Sets Sight On $500,000 BTC Target, $20,000 For ETH

They start young in the Trump family. According to<a href="https://www.newsweek.com/barron-trump-new-business-real-estate-2014039"> </a>Newsweek, the President's 18-year-old son, Barron – currently enrolled as a freshman at New York University's Stern School of Business – filed incorporation documents in Wyoming on July 14, 2024, to form his own real estate business, Trump, Fulcher &amp; Roxburgh Capital Inc. He listed the address as his father's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42935628/mark-zuckerberg-meets-donald-trump-at-mar-a-lago-mending-fences-ahead-of-gop-white-house-return">Mar-a-Lago</a> estate in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/12/42499834/palm-beach-luxury-home-sales-take-off-after-trump-election-win-with-residents-looking-bask-in-mar-a-lago-glamor">Palm Beach</a>, Florida.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">High Golf Resorts And Masterful Mentorship</h3>
However, Trump's youngest son dissolved the business shortly after Trump Sr. won the 2024 election. The ‘Roxburgh' in the company's name and cofounder is Cameron Roxburgh, one of Barron's classmates from High School – the prestigious $40,000-a-year Oxbridge Academy in Palm Beach. According to his LinkedIn profile, Cameron, a year behind Barron, is due to graduate in May 2025. He told Newsweek there are plans to "relaunch it" – the real estate business – in the Spring. He explained that the company temporarily shut down to avoid media scrutiny during the election.

</ul>
Interestingly, Roxburgh revealed that the company will focus on upscale real estate development once it launches. They have already identified properties and golf courses in Utah, Arizona and Idaho. Roxburgh added that he and Barron will be working with a third partner – luxury real estate expert Carter Fulcher.
Although Roxburgh stated that the President has not offered to underwrite his son's company's deals with funding, the T.F.R. team hopes their fledgling business can one day be brought into the Trump Organization fold.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Like Father Like Son</h3>
Carter Fulcher is known for being at the helm of a luxury real estate development business, The Fulcher Organization, in Idaho. In following his father's footsteps, Barron is emulating the path dad Donald took, joining his father's multifamily real estate business in 1968 before launching his own self-branding venture in the 1970s, which continues to this day and is co-run with Trump's other sons Eric and Donald Jr.&nbsp;

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Generational Wealth</h3>
According to The New York Times, Trump Sr. received a staggering $413 million in today's money from his dad over two decades. However, Trump has vehemently disagreed with this number, saying he started with $1 million from his father to kick-start his real estate empire.
Regarding The New York Times accusation, which alleged that much of Trump's inheritance was passed down through tax loopholes, the President's brother Robert Trump said that "all appropriate gift and estate tax returns were filed. Our family has no other comment on these matters that happened some 20 years ago," he said in a statement to the Times, "and would appreciate your respecting the privacy of our deceased parents, may God rest their souls."
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Real Estate Dynasties</h3>
While Trump's children with former wife Ivana – Donald Jr., Eric and Ivanka – are all involved or have been involved in their dad's real estate business – only Tiffany, the daughter from Trump and Marla Maples' brief marriage, does not appear to be involved in the family business. The Georgetown Law graduate seems to be sticking to the profession she studied. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/25/01/43076683/ivanka-trump-and-jared-kushner-wont-trade-their-24-million-miami-mansion-for-the-white-house-heres-how-they-made-their-money">Ivanka</a> is also married into another real estate dynasty, the Kushners, through her husband Jared, whose family's net worth is believed to be $7.1 billion as of 2024.&nbsp;

Boeing, Nikola, Texas Instruments, Intuitive Surgical, And Tesla: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

Amid the ongoing uncertainty surrounding TikTok&#8217;s future in the U.S., Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk and Oracle Corp.'s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>) Larry Ellison have emerged as prominent figures in the potential acquisition.
What Happened: While speaking with BBC on Thursday, Wedbush analyst Dan Ives underscored TikTok&#8217;s status as the fastest-growing social media platform.
He noted that any sale excluding its algorithm could still be valued at $40 to $50 billion and predicted that around 10 to 12 bidders might emerge in the coming weeks.
The analyst also said that while Musk is a strong contender, Oracle remains in the race, with Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) as a potential long shot.

While TikTok&#8217;s owner, ByteDance, has stated that it has no plans to sell, the app&#8217;s immense value and reach have attracted interest from several billionaires and major firms.

Elon Musk Or Larry Ellison? Dan Ives On Who Could Win TikTok's Billion-Dollar Soap Opera: 'Someone Hand Picked From Beijing But Also Trump's White House'

The Securities and Exchange Commission on Thursday repealed a cryptocurrency accounting directive that prevented banking institutions from providing custodial services for digital assets.
What happened: SEC commissioner Hester Peirce, who leads the recently formed cryptocurrency task force, announced the cancellation of the Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121 policy, also known as Hester Peirce,
"Bye, bye SAB 121! It&#8217;s not been fun," the commissioner also known as &#8220;Crypto Mom,&#8221; wrote.

Why It Matters: The SAB 121 mandated that companies holding customers' cryptocurrencies must record them on their balance sheets, curtailing their ability to participate in digital asset custody services.
Both the Senate and the House of Representatives voted unanimously to overturn the directive. However, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/06/39214376/biden-vetoes-bipartisan-bill-to-overturn-secs-crypto-custody-rules">resolution was vetoed</a> by the White House under former President Joe Biden in June of 2024.

The SAB 121 development comes after Trump signed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43177482/trump-signs-executive-order-on-crypto-bitcoin-reserve-to-be-evaluated">executive orders</a>, halting progress on central bank digital currencies and exploring the case of a Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) reserve.

SEC Repeals SAB 121 Policy That Restricted Banks From Providing Custody Services For Bitcoin: Crypto Mom Says 'Bye, Bye'

Trading Halt: Halted at 7:50:00 p.m. ET - Trading Halt: Halt News Pending

A U.S. federal judge has put a temporary stop to an executive order aimed at limiting automatic birthright citizenship on Thursday. The judge deemed the order &#8220;blatantly unconstitutional.&#8221;
What Happened: Judge John Coughenour, stationed in Seattle, issued a temporary restraining, effectively blocking the enforcement of President Donald Trump&#8217;s executive order, as per a Reuters report. The order was issued at the behest of four Democratic-led states: Washington, Arizona, Illinois, and Oregon.
The executive order instructed U.S. agencies to deny citizenship to children born in the U.S. if neither parent is a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident. &#8220;I am having trouble understanding how a member of the bar could state unequivocally that this order is constitutional,&#8221; Coughenour told a U.S. Justice Department lawyer defending the order.
The states contended that Trump&#8217;s order contravenes the citizenship clause of the U.S. Constitution&#8217;s 14th Amendment, which guarantees citizenship to anyone born in the United States. &#8220;This is a blatantly unconstitutional order,&#8221; Coughenour stated.
Trump said on Coughenour&#8217;s ruling, &#8220;Obviously we&#8217;ll appeal.&#8221;
Why It Matters: The executive order was part of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/01/43084601/trump-day-1-executive-order-tsunami-incoming-heres-what-hes-signing-first">slew of actions</a> the president pledged to take immediately after his inauguration. The order was a continuation of his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/05/32640194/trump-calls-for-abolition-of-birthright-citizenship-once-again-will-issue-executive-order-on-day-1-i">long-standing stance</a> against birthright citizenship, a position he had reaffirmed during his campaign.
Trump&#8217;s niece, Mary Trump, had previously <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42497190/mary-trump-slams-uncle-over-anti-birthright-citizenship-stance-a-deeply-ignorant-cruel-man">criticized his stance</a> on birthright citizenship, emphasizing its importance in the context of their family&#8217;s history in America.
The temporary restraining order will prevent Trump&#8217;s policy from being enforced nationwide for 14 days, during which Judge Coughenour will consider whether to issue a long-lasting preliminary injunction.
 The arguments over this will be heard on Feb. 6. If Trump&#8217;s order is allowed to stand, more than 150,000 newborn children would be denied citizenship annually, according to the Democratic-led states.

Trump's Birthright Citizenship Order Halted By Judge: 'Blatantly Unconstitutional'

Josh Kesselman, founder of RAW and creator of its iconic rolling papers, celebrated an $8.7 million legal victory against counterfeiters in the most fitting way possible: by printing the court verdict on rolling paper and rolling a giant joint. 
"This was the best way to celebrate our $8.7 million victory," Kesselman told Benzinga. "We rolled it up and smoked the lawsuit, literally."
The celebration followed a decisive ruling from the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada on Dec. 17, 2024. The court awarded BBK Tobacco &amp; Foods, which distributes RAW under its HBI International brand, more than $3 million in disgorged profits from the defendants and an additional $5.6 million in statutory damages for copyright infringements related to RAW's packaging designs.

RAW has built a global reputation for high-quality rolling papers, cones and smoking accessories, attracting a loyal customer base. This victory reinforces the company's commitment to safeguarding its brand and ensuring authenticity in an industry rife with counterfeits.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Battling Counterfeit RAW Products</h1>
The lawsuit focused on counterfeit rolling papers sold under the "Brocone" brand, manufactured by Brocone Organic Private Limited in India. The products closely imitated RAW's packaging, down to the exact wording. While BBK reached a confidential settlement with NEPA Wholesale Inc., the primary U.S. distributor of Brocone products, in September 2023, litigation against Brocone Organic, U.S. importer AIMS Group USA Corporation and Florida One Wholesale, Inc. continued.
Kesselman expressed his determination to protect RAW customers, saying, "We have dedicated our lives to making the best rolling products on the planet. Our customers are our family. We can't let anyone willfully trick our family into buying something that isn't genuine RAW. Whether it's a counterfeit or a look-alike, we must protect our family from that sort of awful deception. We all deserve better, and we all get higher together!"
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">A Statement Beyond The Courtroom</h1>
The legal win sends a strong message to would-be counterfeiters and reinforces BBK's reputation for defending its intellectual property. The $8.7 million judgment is a reminder of the serious consequences of intellectual property theft, particularly in the highly competitive smoking accessories industry.
"This victory is about more than money," Kesselman emphasized. "It's about protecting what RAW stands for: quality, authenticity and respect for our customers."
By turning the verdict into a literal smoking celebration, Kesselman not only highlighted the company's creativity but also reaffirmed RAW's commitment to its loyal customer base and the principles that have made it a global leader in rolling paper innovation.

RAW Founder Celebrates $8.7M Legal Victory In A Very Peculiar Way: 'We Rolled It Up And Smoked The Lawsuit, Literally'

President Donald Trump has called for NATO members to significantly increase their spending on defense, suggesting a target of 5% of gross domestic product to go<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/emerging-markets/25/01/43133508/trump-wants-to-buy-greenland-for-us-security"> toward military spending.&nbsp;</a>
What To Know: Trump reiterated the 5% of GDP spending goal on Monday following his inauguration, according to a Reuters report. The current spending goal is set at 2% and eight NATO member states do not meet the current goal.&nbsp;

Poland currently spends about 4.1% of its GDP on military and defense, the highest of any NATO member. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk supported Trump's call for increased defense spending in a speech to the lawmakers of the European Parliament on Wednesday.&nbsp;
&#8220;We shouldn&#8217;t be irritated. We shouldn&#8217;t be appalled,&#8221; Tusk told lawmakers of the European Parliament. &#8220;Some think it&#8217;s extravagant or it is a brutal or malicious warning.&#8221;
Tusk told the Parliament that Russia poses an existential threat to the EU.&nbsp;
&#8220;I would like to tell you that this is a time when Europe cannot afford to save on security,&#8221; Tusk said.&nbsp;
Why It Matters: Many analysts expect increased defense spending under the new Trump administration and increased spending targets for NATO members would add to the likelihood of benefits for military and defense contractors like RTX Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RTX#NYSE">RTX</a>) and General Dynamics Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GD#NYSE">GD</a>). 
Truist Securities analyst Michael Ciarmoli recently<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/initiation/25/01/43010706/doge-fears-for-defense-contractors-lockheed-martin-northrop-grumman-overblown-analyst-says"> initiated coverage </a>on Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>) and Northrop Grumman Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOC#NYSE">NOC</a>) with Buy ratings and price targets of $579 and $544, respectively. 
Ciarmoli said U.S. and NATO defense budgets will continue to grow and demand for missiles and munitions will be robust.
Additionally, NATO is increasingly using "bulk buys," an aggregated business model to purchase weapons systems and munitions. For example, the NATO Support and Procurement Agency ordered up to 1,000 Patriot Advanced Capability Missiles from MBDA and Raytheon's joint venture Comlog, on behalf of Romania, Spain, Germany and the Netherlands, as <a href="https://www.defensenews.com/global/europe/2024/07/23/natos-newfound-knack-for-hefty-bulk-buys-has-arms-maker-rtx-perked-up/">reported</a> by DefenseNews.&nbsp;
These bulk buys could result in large orders and purchases from defense contractors if NATO spending does increase.&nbsp;

Trump Calls For Increased NATO Military Spending: Defense Contractors Stand To Benefit

In a recent interview, NBA team owner Mark Cuban highlighted the differences between X and Bluesky with a preference for Bluesky due to no algorithm and the ability to truly hide <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/12/42566461/mark-cuban-says-this-is-the-holy-grail-that-makes-bluesky-better-than-musks-x-platform">and block people.</a>
While Cuban is a fan of Bluesky, the National Football League isn't quite convinced and has told teams to pause their usage of the X rival.
What Happened: Bluesky has attracted strong user growth since<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42867967/elon-musks-x-rival-bluesky-is-being-valued-at-700-million-after-explosive-growth-post-trumps-victory-report"> the 2024 presidential election</a> as social media users look for alternatives to the Elon Musk-owned X.
A recent podcast appearance by Kraft Sports + Entertainment Vice President of Content Fred Kirsch revealed that the NFL isn't ready to take advantage of the Bluesky growth yet, as <a href="https://www.sportico.com/business/tech/2025/nfl-bluesky-patriots-platforms-x-reddit-ban-alternatives-1234825016/">reported </a>by Sportico.
"Right now we're not allowed to," Kirsch said of having an active team using Bluesky. "Whenever the league gives us the green light, we'll get back on Bluesky."
Kraft Sports + Entertainment is the owner of the NFL's New England Patriots.
An NFL league source told Sportico that the NFL and its teams only have official presences on platforms where the league has partnership agreements. The NFL does not currently have a deal with Bluesky.
Deals for the NFL include TikTok, X and YouTube. These deals can include license fees, the split of advertisement revenue and be used for marketing purposes.
An NBC Sports <a href="https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/patriots-say-nfl-wont-allow-teams-to-be-on-bluesky-yet">report </a>said the NFL's policy not allowing NFL teams to post on Bluesky could raise antitrust concerns due to the league's partnership with platforms like X. NFL teams operate as independent businesses and should be able to make their own decisions over which platforms to be on, the report said.
X <a href="https://deadline.com/2024/04/nfl-x-twitter-renew-content-partnership-ceo-linda-yaccarino-1235899239/">announced </a>a renewed content partnership in April 2024 and saw the <a href="https://x.com/XBusiness/status/1858556135713681804">launch </a>of a new NFL-specific portal in October 2024.
You may not be a billionaire like Mark Cuban, but you can uncover hidden gems in the stock market using our proprietary data and pattern recognition — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42927075/benzingas-stock-whisper-index-5-stocks-investors-secretly-monitor-but-dont-talk-about-yet">check out five stocks flying under the radar that deserve your attention.</a>
Why It's Important: Bluesky continues to grow and has over 29 million users according to the report. This is significantly less than the number of users that are on X and platforms like Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and YouTube. The NFL may be hesitant to sign a partnership with a newer platform.
Cuban is one of the most followed people on Bluesky with one million followers. Cuban is a part owner in the NBA's Dallas Mavericks. A quick search for the Mavericks on Bluesky brought up what looks like the team's official <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/dallasmavs.bsky.social">account</a>, which had one post back in May 2023 and has not posted since.
Several sports media personalities, including some from ESPN, can be found on Bluesky as the platform grows.
For Bluesky to continue its growth, the platform likely needs more well-known names, celebrities and sports teams to join. The NFL's decision will be closely monitored going forward.

$100 Invested In Ciena 15 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Are you working tirelessly to keep a business running, managing operations, building client relationships and essentially <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/11/41776393/49-of-ceos-say-their-role-should-be-automated-but-nvidia-ceo-jensen-huang-responds-absolutely-not-fo">doing the job of a CEO – </a>only to find out that you're earning just a fraction of what the company makes?&nbsp;
That's exactly the situation one Reddit user shared recently, sparking a heated debate about ethics, business loyalty and the pursuit of personal success.
The poster <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/Entrepreneur/comments/1hmvs5f/should_i_undermine_my_boss_and_start_my_own/">explained</a> that their boss bought the business after her husband passed away. She hired them to help run it, but now they do 95% of the work. Meanwhile, the boss and her sons, who don't help much, keep most of the profits.&nbsp;
Don't Miss:

<li>With 100+ historic trademark victories, this company holds IP for some of the highest-grossing characters in history. Now, they've propelled these icons into the future using next-gen patented AR, VR, and AI technology. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/elf-labs-1">There&#8217;s now a limited window for investors to claim shares at just $2/share with $980 minimum—but the clock is ticking.</a></li>
<li>Inspired by Uber and Airbnb &#8211; Deloitte's fastest-growing software company is transforming 7 billion smartphones into income-generating assets &#8211; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">with $1,000 you can invest at just $0.26/share!</a></li>
</ul>
They were only paid a base wage and a 5% commission on sales, even though the company was becoming increasingly successful. As they put it, "If I help this woman build her company for the next few years, who knows what I'll be left with at the end of it? She says if I do well, she will give me 30% equity, but that's not in writing.&#8221;
The question to the Reddit community was straightforward but complex: should they stay loyal and continue building someone else's legacy or leave to start a competing business and finally reap the full benefits of their efforts?
&#8220;She's a nice lady but just loves her sons a lot, so she wants her son to take over the company, even though they have no interest or know-how.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Case for Leaving</h2>
Many commenters supported the idea of starting their own business, arguing that loyalty in business often goes unrewarded. "You will not make this person suddenly care enough about you to reward you proportionally," one user wrote. Others pointed out that their contributions outweighed their compensation, making it reasonable to seek greener pastures.
Starting a new business would allow them to take control of their future and fully benefit from their hard work. Some even suggested that they could outcompete their boss's business, leveraging the relationships and knowledge they've built. However, they also admitted feeling guilty: "Part of me feels very bad for doing this to her after she introduced me to this industry (albeit it was by my own capacity it has gotten this far)."
However, there's a big caveat – ethical and legal boundaries. Using client lists, trade secrets or other proprietary information could result in lawsuits, especially if the employee signed a noncompete agreement. Many commenters urged consulting an attorney before making any moves, moving geographies or working with different clients.
Trending: It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $70 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Case for Staying</h2>
While leaving may seem like the obvious choice, others argued that they owe something to the boss who gave them a chance after their first two businesses failed. &#8220;What about the part where op says he failed two businesses and she took a shot on him and gave him a place to work?&#8221; one commenter noted. "Why not just tell her what you told us? Give her a fair chance to bring you in on the 30% equity or whatever your terms are."
This approach would allow them to achieve their goals while maintaining integrity and preserving relationships.
Additionally, commenters warned about underestimating the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/42677675/financial-planning-for-startups-tips-and-tools-to-track-every-dollar">challenges of running their own business</a>. Entrepreneurship comes with significant risks and responsibilities, from managing overhead costs to dealing with legal compliance and employee issues.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Balancing Ethics and Ambition</h2>
The heart of the dilemma is balancing ambition with ethical considerations. Starting a competing business isn't inherently unethical, but the way it's done matters. Poaching clients or using inside information could damage their reputation and lead to legal trouble. Conversely, staying in a role where they feel undervalued could leave them resentful and stuck.

President Donald Trump confronted Bank of America Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>) CEO Brian Moynihan and JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) CEO Jamie Dimon on Thursday at the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/world-economic-forum" target="_blank" rel="noopener">World Economic Forum</a>, alleging discrimination against conservative clients.
Trump, addressing the audience via video conference, accused the financial giants of excluding conservative businesses, an allegation that the banks have denied, Fox Business <a href="https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/trump-confronts-bank-america-ceo-not-taking-conservative-business">reports</a>.
What Happened: Trump directly confronted Moynihan, claiming that conservatives face banking discrimination. &#8220;I hope you start opening your bank to conservatives,&#8221; Trump said, alleging that certain financial institutions, including Bank of America, have refused to provide services to right-leaning clients. 
Trump suggested regulatory pressure from the Biden administration could influence such decisions and urged financial leaders to reconsider their policies. 
Moynihan did not respond to Trump&#8217;s remarks on the matter but instead shifted the discussion toward Bank of America&#8217;s sponsorship of the upcoming World Cup in the U.S. A spokesperson for the bank later refuted claims of political bias, saying, &#8220;We serve more than 70 million clients and we welcome conservatives.&#8221; 
The bank insisted account closures are based solely on regulatory compliance, not political affiliations.

The president also called out Dimon, urging him to ensure fair access to banking services for conservative clients. A JPMorgan Chase spokesperson emphasized their stance, saying, &#8220;We never close accounts for political reasons, full stop.&#8221;
Why It Matters: Trump&#8217;s comments add to ongoing scrutiny over financial institutions allegedly engaging in &#8220;de-banking&#8221; practices. The issue has drawn attention from policymakers, with attorneys general from 15 states previously condemning what they describe as discriminatory banking policies, Fox Business reports.

He positioned these measures as key drivers to encourage investment and strengthen U.S. manufacturing.

Leuthold Select Industries Fund Converts to ETF

The Leuthold Group just gave investors something new to talk about with the launch of<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs"> its latest ETF</a>, the Leuthold Select Industries ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LST#NYSE">LST</a>). This ETF is the result of an evolution of the Leuthold Select Industries Fund, a mutual fund of more than 20 years that covers everything from small-cap up-and-comers to well-established bigwigs.



Instead of sticking to broad sectors, the fund zeroes in on specific industry groups — about 120. The idea? Find those pockets of the market where companies are poised to outperform.

"With LST, equity investors who want exposure to a longstanding, proven investment discipline — coupled with the lower cost, operational ease and tax benefits of an ETF — will have that opportunity," said Leuthold CIO Doug Ramsey. "We've been pleased with the performance and market reception of LCR, so it was a natural progression to convert Select Industries to an ETF."



This isn't the Leuthold Group's first time in the ETF space. Their Leuthold Core ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LCR#NYSE">LCR</a>) has become popular, blending equity and fixed-income assets. The ETF has more than $80 million in assets under management and a five-star Morningstar rating from the Leuthold Select Industries Fund.



The Leuthold Select Industries ETF comes with a net expense ratio of 0.65%, thanks to a fee waiver. That's a reasonable deal for a fund offering this level of specialization. With markets expected to broaden their growth across sectors in 2025, the ETF is expected to benefit from focusing on advantageous industries. 



The ETF is ideal for investors looking to grow their money over the long term. It is actively managed and has exposure to a broad mix of U.S.-traded equities.
