The cryptocurrency market recouped a significant portion of its valuation last week, with many top coins registering double-digit gains.
What happened: TAO, the native token of the decentralized artificial intelligence platform Bittensor, led the market with 30% gains in the last week.&nbsp;
The cryptocurrency has gained momentum after Barry Silbert, head of cryptocurrency conglomerate Digital Currency Group, voiced optimism for decentralized AI in a letter to shareholders.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TEM#NASDAQ">TEM</a>) executed significant share sales totaling $20.3 million between Feb. 4-7, according to recent Securities and Exchange Commission filings.

Tempus AI Executives Sell $20 Million In Stock As Cathie Wood Buys And Nancy Pelosi Eyes Options

On Sunday, Kendrick Lamar took over the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43583058/super-bowl-ads-go-all-in-on-ai-stars-and-8m-price-tags-elon-musk-shared-this-advert-with-his-followers">Super Bowl 2025</a> Halftime Show with a high-energy set, surprise guests, and the long-awaited live debut of the diss track "Not Like Us."&nbsp;
What Happened: Lamar's 13-minute set at the Caesars Superdome was packed with back-to-back hits from GNX and classics like HUMBLE and DNA.
The energy spiked when Solána Imani Rowe, known professionally as SZA joined him for their 2024 track "Luther" and "All the Stars." Record producer and DJ Mustard hyped up the crowd with "TV Off," while Serena Williams made a surprise cameo showing off her dancing skills.

Samuel L. Jackson, draped in a tailcoat and top hat, played the role of Uncle Sam and added dramatic interjections between songs. The biggest moment came when Lamar teased "Not Like Us" twice before finally dropping the viral diss track.
Why It Matters: After the show, Williams posted on X, formerly Twiter, "Super Bowl halftime show babyyyyyyyyy," later adding, "Let's go Super Bowl halftime??! I died a little!"

Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl Halftime Show Teases Diss Track 'Not Like Us' Before Delivering The Ultimate Mic Drop Moment—Samuel L. Jackson, Serena Williams, And SZA Join The Spectacle

The Philadelphia Eagles&#8217; 40-22 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs at Super Bowl LIX marked not just a shift in NFL power dynamics but also represented another test of the event&#8217;s advertising and viewership supremacy, as industry observers await official audience numbers.
What Happened: Last month, Brian Steinberg of Variety.com noted that Nielsen&#8216;s Big Data + Panel now officially measures total audiences. Super Bowl LVIII drew 123.7 million viewers, ranking as the second most-watched television program in U.S. history after the 1969 moon landing. Even with a 10% boost to 136.7 million, that&#8217;s still far from the U.S. population of 335 million, <a href="https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/changes-to-nielsens-out-of-home-measurements-could-result-in-biggest-super-bowl-tv-audience-ever">according</a> to NBC Sports.
This year&#8217;s broadcast strategy included a streaming component through Fox&#8217;s Tubi platform. The Spanish-language rights were shared between Fox Deportes and Telemundo in an arrangement <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/05/38742147/foxs-growth-prospects-competitive-valuation-stand-out-against-disney-paramount-analyst-sees">aimed at maximizing reach</a>.
The event maintained its celebrity appeal, with notable attendees including Taylor Swift and President Donald Trump, who made history as the first sitting president to attend a Super Bowl.

Why It Matters: Fox Sports sold out its premium advertising inventory months before the game, with some spots commanding $8 million for 30 seconds, according to Fox Sports Executive Vice President Mark Evans. The high-stakes advertising playground attracted major tech companies and traditional brands alike, with artificial intelligence <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43583058/super-bowl-ads-go-all-in-on-ai-stars-and-8m-price-tags-elon-musk-shared-this-advert-with-his-followers">emerging as a dominant theme</a>.
Notable advertisers included Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) Google, which faced scrutiny for claims in its Gemini AI ad, Salesforce Inc.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) with a star-studded spot featuring Chris Pratt and Chris Hemsworth. In a significant return to Super Bowl advertising, Nike Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) broke its 27-year hiatus with a women-empowerment-themed commercial.

Eagles Fly Over Chiefs 40-22 As Super Bowl LIX Tests Potential 137 Million Viewership For Fox

Controversial rapper&nbsp;Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, denied intentions to launch his own meme coin on Saturday, stating that he only focuses on things he is &#8220;knowledgeable&#8221; about.
What Happened:&nbsp;The famous hip-hop artist took to X to express his disdain for the growing trend of celebrity-endorsed cryptocurrencies. 
&#8220;M not doing a coin.&nbsp;I make products. I only&nbsp;do things I am passionate&nbsp;and knowledgeable about. I&#8217;m too&nbsp;rich to do anything else. Coins prey on the&nbsp;fans with hype,&#8221; Ye said.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

He further revealed that he was offered $2 million to &#8220;scam&#8221; his community, an offer he promptly declined.

Ye&#8217;s remarks triggered a 77% collapse in the value of an unrelated meme coin, Kanye West (YE), <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/">according</a> to CoinMarketCap. Note that the coin had very thin liquidity as of this writing, with no trading happening on mainstream cryptocurrency exchanges.

Why It Matters:&nbsp;Ye&#8217;s remarks come in the wake of several celebrity meme coin launches in recent weeks, the most prominent being Official Trump (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">TRUMP</a>), launched by President Donald Trump, and Official Melania (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">MELANIA</a>) by the First Lady.
The coins have accumulated tens of billions in combined market valuation, with speculations that the first couple&nbsp;<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" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">may benefit directly</a>&nbsp;from the gains. 
Top cryptocurrency voices like Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) creator Vitalik Buterin have long argued against such projects, stating that they <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43182670/amid-trump-token-frenzy-ethereums-vitalik-buterin-warns-of-unlimited-political-bribery-via-memecoins">just benefit celebrities and early adopters</a>.
This was not the first time Ye has voiced his disapproval of the digital asset trend. Back in Feb. 2022, he asked fans <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/22/02/25329945/kanye-west-rejects-nfts-tells-fans-to-stop-asking-im-not-on-that-wave">to &#8220;stop asking&#8221; him to get into non-fungible tokens</a>, emphasizing that he makes music and products in the &#8220;real world.&#8221;

Kanye West Won't Jump Aboard Meme Coin Bandwagon Despite A '$2 Million Offer': 'Coins Prey On The Fans With Hype'

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) is reportedly ramping up its recruitment efforts for its home robotics division.
What Happened: In his latest weekly "Power On" newsletter, Bloomberg columnist Mark Gurman said that the company has posted several job listings for robotics specialists over the past few weeks.
"As a member of the team, you'll have the opportunity to work with a small team of highly skilled engineers and scientists to bring new experiences to Apple products," the tech giant stated.

Apple&#8217;s robotics development is handled by two teams: the Home Labs hardware engineering group and Kevin Lynch's AI special projects team.
They are focused on a tabletop robot and, in the future, possibly a humanoid model, Gurman said.
The company is still in the early stages of researching mobile robots, both humanoid and non-humanoid. However, the tabletop robot is expected to debut by 2027.

Apple Ramping Up Hiring For Home Robotics Team, Says Top Analyst: What's Brewing?

Tubi is offering a free live stream of Super Bowl LIX, but if you&#8217;re trying to cast it to your TV using Chromecast (Google Cast), it&#8217;s reportedly not working as expected.
What Happened: At first, it was thought Google's Chromecast service was down because they couldn't cast the Super Bowl from the Tubi app.
However, Chromecast from Alphabet Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google, itself is working fine—this issue is due to how Tubi has set up its Super Bowl stream, <a href="https://9to5google.com/2025/02/09/chromecast-tubi-not-down-super-bowl-lix/">reported</a> 9To5Google.

Why Isn&#8217;t It Working On Chromecast
Tubi&#8217;s app usually lets you cast most of its content to a TV using Chromecast from the "Stream" tab. However, for the Super Bowl, Tubi made it available only through a special button on the app's homepage.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
This button doesn't allow casting, so when you try to watch the game, it stays on your phone instead of appearing on your TV, the report noted.
Users on X, formerly Twitter, complained about glitching issues. When Tubi&#8217;s official handle asked which devices are they using, some people replied saying Apple TV and Samsung TV, one frustrated user said, &#8220;every device I own.&#8221;

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>

To another user, who shared a video of showing their screen stuck, Tubi said the issue could be linked to the device&#8217;s color format settings.

Trying To Watch The Super Bowl For Free On Tubi? Google Chromecast Users Aren't Having An Easy Night

Michael Saylor, co-founder of the newly branded Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>), hinted at a potential Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) purchase on Sunday after a one-week break.
What Happened: Saylor posted a chart that tracks the&nbsp;company&#8217;s Bitcoin purchases on X. 
&#8220;Death to the blue lines.&nbsp;Long live the green dots,&#8221; the influential CEO of Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, wrote.

The trend persisted for 12 consecutive weeks before the firm took a break from loading the apex cryptocurrency last week.
The latest post possibly signaled the resumption of the Bitcoin-buying streak.

Michael Saylor Declares 'Death To Blue Lines, Long Live Green Dots:' Is Strategy's BTC Purchase Streak About To Resume?

A prominent Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) investor and CEO of Gerber Kawasaki Wealth and Investment Management, Ross Gerber, voiced strong criticism of Tesla&#8217;s Full Self-Driving system, particularly its performance on the Cybertruck, amid the company&#8217;s push toward autonomous driving capabilities.
What Happened: Gerber reported multiple disengagements over 40 miles while testing FSD version 13.2.6 on the Cybertruck, describing the system as &#8220;not usable&#8221; and noting it &#8220;hugs the lane on the left too far over.&#8221; 
He directly compared Tesla&#8217;s technology to Alphabet Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) Waymo, stating that Tesla&#8217;s FSD is &#8220;not even in the same league as Waymo at this point.&#8221;
Gerber&#8217;s comments sparked debate within the Tesla community, with some users reporting contrasting experiences. One user cited 1,800 miles of driving with only one safety-critical disengagement.

Why It Matters: The criticism comes at a crucial time for Tesla&#8217;s autonomous driving ambitions. CEO Elon Musk recently predicted that Tesla&#8217;s FSD would surpass human driving safety by the second quarter of 2025. However, Tesla researcher Troy Teslike has raised concerns about the company&#8217;s approach, suggesting Tesla is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/02/43576866/tesla-researcher-says-ev-giant-is-skipping-a-step-to-driverless-operations-it-took-waymo-three-years">attempting to skip crucial development steps</a> that competitors like Waymo spent years perfecting.
Goldman Sachs analyst Mark Delaney, while acknowledging &#8220;meaningful improvement&#8221; with FSD version 13, maintains a cautious stance with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/01/43036902/tesla-stock-valuation-analyst-flags-long-term-growth-opportunities-robotaxis-fsd">Neutral rating and $345 price target on Tesla stock</a>. Delaney projects limited initial revenue from robotaxi operations, forecasting approximately $115 million by 2027 based on a fleet of 1,500 vehicles.
Tesla&#8217;s autonomous driving initiatives face ongoing regulatory scrutiny, with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recently opening <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42894743/tesla-ceo-elon-musk-says-fsd-will-be-safer-than-human-drivers-in-q2-2025">investigations into 2.6 million</a> Tesla vehicles equipped with FSD technology following safety concerns and reported incidents.

Tesla Investor Ross Gerber Slams FSD On Cybertruck As 'Not Usable,' Says It's 'Not Even In The Same League As Waymo'

A new trend has emerged among Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) Watch users, who are now wearing the device on their ankles.
What Happened: Fitness enthusiasts like Ana Espinal have adopted this practice to improve heart rate monitoring, especially for those with smaller wrists, <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/08/style/apple-watch-ankles.html">reported</a> the New York Times.
Others, such as Shaniece Gale, a medical assistant from Ontario, have embraced this method for practical reasons. After giving birth, Gale found it challenging to track her steps while pushing a stroller.
By wearing the watch on her ankle, she could accurately monitor her activity without tiring her arms, the report noted.

Despite the benefits, the trend has led to misunderstandings. Espinal recounted an incident at the gym where someone mistook her ankle-worn watch for an ankle monitor.
Apple notes in support materials that key Watch features are designed and tested for wrist use only. The watch, for instance, uses LED lights and semiconductors to measure blood flow through the wrist.
Apple did not immediately respond to<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard"> Benzinga's</a> request for comments.

Why It Matters: The trend of wearing Apple Watches on ankles comes at a time when the company is facing increased competition in the wearables market.
Last year it was reported that Chinese tech giants like Huawei Technologies are making significant strides, with a 20% surge in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42570544/apple-watch-is-getting-a-run-for-its-money-as-chinese-tech-giants-led-by-huawei-lead-20-growth-in-global-wrist-worn-device-market">global wrist-worn device</a> market.

Revenue from Wearables, Home, and Accessories reached $11.75 billion, slightly lower than last year&#8217;s $11.95 billion.
Price Action: Apple&#8217;s stock fell 2.40% on Friday, closing at $227.63. After hours, it edged down 0.17% to $227.25, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

Apple Watch Users Are Strapping Them To Their Ankles — Here's Why Its Leaving Some People Bewildered

Editor&#8217;s Note: This story has been updated to reflect the latest developments in Super Bowl LIX.
The&nbsp;Philadelphia Eagles&nbsp;emerged victorious at Super Bowl LIX, defeating defending champions&nbsp;&nbsp;Kansas City Chiefs,&nbsp;by 40-22. The result defied a pre-match forecast by President&nbsp;Donald Trump, who picked the Chiefs to emerge victorious for a third consecutive Super Bowl victory. Interestingly, bettors on the cryptocurrency market&nbsp;Polymarket&nbsp;had placed high odds in favor of an Eagles victory.
The Chiefs are the reigning champions, looking for their third consecutive Super Bowl victory.
What Happened: Trump, who became the first U.S. president to attend a Super Bowl event, also leaned in favor of a Chiefs victory.
"I have to go with Kansas City," Trump said in an interview with Fox News. "It&#8217;s going to be just a great game."
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio">

</div>
</figure>
Quite interestingly, cryptocurrency bettors differed from Trump's opinion.&nbsp;
Polygon (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">POL</a>)-based prediction platform Polymarket projected an <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/superbowl-champion-2025/will-the-saints-win-super-bowl-2025?tid=1739150996190">overwhelming </a>93% odds of an Eagles victory as of this writing.&nbsp;
Notably, over a billion dollars were wagered on the outcome, making it one of the most hotly watched events by punters.

That said, even bettors on the federally regulated Kalshi also leaned in favor of an Eagles victory.
Super Bowl LIX is set to deliver an electrifying rematch between the two giants. At halftime,&nbsp;the Eagles were dominating the Chiefs with a scoreline of 24-0.

Trump Vs. Polymarket Crypto Bettors: Whose Prediction On Super Bowl LIX Came True? (UPDATED)

President Donald Trump announced plans to impose a 25% tariff on all steel and aluminum imports, reigniting trade tensions reminiscent of his 2018 metal tariffs policy. 
What Happened: The announcement was made during his flight to New Orleans for the Super Bowl, according to Reuters.
Canada, the largest U.S. steel import source with $8.3 billion in 2021 shipments, announced retaliatory tariffs of 25% on U.S. goods. Mexico is the second-largest steel supplier at over $5 billion in imports. Brazil ($3.2 billion), South Korea ($2.8 billion), and Germany ($1.5 billion) round out the top five steel importers to the U.S., <a href="https://www.statista.com/statistics/196154/value-of-us-imports-of-iron-and-steel-by-origin/">according</a> to Statista data.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau urged Canadians to &#8220;choose Canada&#8221; in product selections, highlighting the stakes for a country that serves as the largest export market for 36 U.S. states.
The move threatens to disproportionately impact U.S. manufacturing, according to Benn Steil, director of international economics at the Council on Foreign Relations. &#8220;Steel-using firms employ over 5 million Americans&#8230; Steel-intensive industries account for over 20% of US manufacturing output,&#8221; Steil said on X, adding &#8221; At a stroke, Trump is making US manufacturing globally uncompetitive.&#8221;

Why It Matters: While domestic steel producers like U.S. Steel Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/X#NYSE">X</a>) and Nucor Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NUE#NYSE">NUE</a>) stand to benefit from reduced competition, the tariffs pose challenges for steel-consuming industries. 
The automotive sector, which previously faced headwinds from similar 2018 tariffs, could see increased production costs. The American Automotive Policy Council, representing Ford Motor Co.

Trump also addressed the pending Nippon Steel (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NPSCY#OTC">NPSCY</a>) investment in U.S. Steel, stating the U.S. government would permit investment but prevent majority control.

Trump To Announce 25% Steel And Aluminum Tariffs — Economist Warns President Is 'Making US Manufacturing Globally Uncompetitive'

Super Bowl Sunday has arrived, bringing with it a dazzling array of celebrity-packed commercials. Fox , the broadcaster of the game, reportedly announced in November that all ad slots were sold out, with over 10 spots costing advertisers $8 million each.
What Happened: This year&#8217;s commercials cover a wide range of themes, from smart glasses to pizza rolls, with a significant focus on artificial intelligence. Mark Evans, executive vice president of sales for Fox Sports, told The Hollywood Reporter that AI-themed creative content is expected, reflecting its growing presence in businesses, according to a <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/business/super-bowl-2025-commercials-rcna191062">report</a> from NBC News.
Among the notable ads, Google, the search subsidiary for Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) faced scrutiny for its original Gemini ad, which inaccurately claimed Gouda cheese accounts for &#8220;50 to 60 percent of the world&#8217;s cheese consumption.&#8221; The ad was re-edited following feedback from the Wisconsin Cheese Mart owner.

Other standout commercials include Salesforce Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>) featuring Matthew McConaughey, Meta with Chris Pratt and Chris Hemsworth.

 and a humorous spot from Little Caesars starring Eugene Levy. The Super Bowl ads continue to captivate audiences with creativity and star power.
Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) ran an advertisement featuring Chris Pratt, Chris Hemsworth and Kris Jenner which referenced the banana duct-taped to a wall art piece <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42253045/62m-duct-taped-banana-becomes-a-snack-as-crypto-mogul-justin-sun-asserts-this-conceptual-artwork-can-be-assembled-and-disassembled-anywhere">that sold for millions</a>.

Why It Matters: The Super Bowl remains a prime opportunity for advertisers to reach massive audiences, despite the high costs associated with ad slots.

In a surprising move, Nike Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) returned to Super Bowl advertising after a 27-year hiatus, aiming to boost its declining sales. This decision underscores the high stakes involved, as a 30-second spot can exceed $8 million, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports/25/02/43578947/nike-returns-to-super-bowl-advertising-to-revive-sales-after-27-year-gap">JPMorgan analysts</a>.

Analyst Notes: Popular cryptocurrency analyst and trader Michaël van de Poppe anticipated a "strong week" for cryptocurrencies ahead, aligning with the release of CPI and PPI data.
"This week is comparable to any previous crisis period," Van De Poppe remarked. "During crisis periods, you&#8217;d want to be bullish, and maximum pain is upwards, not down."

Another well-known cryptocurrency researcher, Ali Martinez, weighed in on the possibility of an Ethereum rally.
All eyes on $2,600! If this key support level holds, ETH could gain momentum for a bounce toward $3,000 or even $4,000," the analyst projected.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Flat As Investors Prepare For Crucial Inflation Data: Top Analyst Says This Week Comparable To Any 'Crisis' Period But You Should Be Bullish

On Sunday, T-Mobile U.S. Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TMUS#NASDAQ">TMUS</a>) offered free access to its satellite-to-cell beta service, powered by SpaceX&#8217;s Starlink, for all users.
What Happened: According to T-Mobile, 500,000 square miles of the U.S., previously unreachable by terrestrial towers, can now maintain connectivity.
When the service officially launches in July, it will be included at no extra cost for customers on T-Mobile&#8217;s premium Go5G Next plan. Other T-Mobile users can add it for $15 per month.

For a limited time, beta testers on other T-Mobile plans can lock in an Early Adopter Discount. Until March 1, they can save $5 per month, bringing the cost down to $10 per month.
Customers on Verizon Communications (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VZ#NYSE">VZ</a>), AT&amp;T (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/T#NYSE">T</a>), or other networks can also access T-Mobile Starlink without switching. Once the beta ends in July, the service will be available for $20 per month.
The service initially offers text via satellite, with voice and data features to follow.

Device Compatability: Most smartphones, released in the last four years, will support T-Mobile Starlink beta, but satellite connectivity requires optimization for the best experience. This includes the iPhone 14 and later, the Google Pixel 9 series, Samsung Galaxy A14–A54, and Galaxy S21.
Why It Matters: Last month, Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) integrated Starlink satellite capabilities into its iOS 18.3 update, allowing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43294364/apple-surprises-iphone-users-by-teaming-up-with-spacex-and-t-mobile-to-bring-starlink-satellite-texting-heres-what-you-need-to-know-about-the-new-feature">iPhone users to access</a> satellite texting.

T-Mobile exceeded expectations in its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43300596/t-mobile-q4-earnings-beats-estimates-adds-1-9-million-postpaid-customers-targets-6-million-new-customers-in-2025">fourth-quarter results</a>, posting earnings of $2.57 per share, above the analyst estimate of $2.26.
Price Action: T-Mobile's stock rose 0.31% to $247 in after-hours trading after closing at $246.24 on Friday, down 0.38%, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

Elon Musk's SpaceX And T-Mobile Go Live With Starlink-Powered  Satellite-To-Cell Service: Here's How Much It Will Cost

On Sunday, in an interview aired during the Super Bowl preshow, President Donald Trump expressed his serious intention to make Canada the 51st state of the United States.
What Happened: Trump confirmed his intentions when asked by Fox News Channel&#8217;s Bret Baier if his talk of annexing Canada was &#8220;a real thing&#8221;. Trump responded, &#8220;Yeah it is,&#8221; adding that he believes Canada would be better off as the 51st state, citing a supposed $200 billion annual loss with Canada, according to a <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5135385-trump-says-canada-joining-us-would-be-greatest-thing-they-could-ever-do/">report</a> from The Hill.
&#8220;I love the people of Canada. We have a great relationship, but if they became our 51st state, it would be the greatest thing they could ever do,&#8221; said Trump.
&#8220;Think of how beautiful that country would be without that artificial line running right through it. Somebody drew it many years ago with a ruler, just a line.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Earlier this month, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43576926/trudeau-says-trump-might-be-serious-about-annexing-canada-report">expressed concerns</a> that Trump&#8217;s annexation talk might be serious and tied to his interest in Canada&#8217;s natural resources.

Trump Says Canada Much Better Off Being The 51st State: The Border With US Is 'Just A Line'

While that might sound like a diss, Cardone wasn't taking a cheap shot—he was making a point. The real estate mogul was highlighting Buffett's ultra-conservative, cash-flow-driven investment strategy, which prioritizes steady, predictable income over speculative gains.
"Warren Buffett does not buy stocks," Cardone stated. "Every company Warren Buffett has ever invested in from Coca Cola to Apple Computer, he was taking a major position in a company, not a piece of paper. He didn't didn't invest in Apple Computer until cash flow was stable."

</ul>
That distinction matters. Buffett isn't in the game for risky short-term plays or volatile markets—he wants businesses that pay him forever. His investments in Coca-Cola (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KO#NYSE">KO</a>), Apple (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), and other blue-chip giants have one thing in common: reliable cash flow. "He wants a check every month," Cardone said, emphasizing that Buffett's approach is all about consistency, not quick flips.
Cardone then quoted Buffett's famous saying—"If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die" — which perfectly sums up <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/08/40285452/warren-buffett-says-the-insurance-business-is-very-tempting-somebody-hands-you-money-and-you-han">his investment philosophy</a>. He's not looking for the hottest tech startup or the next big meme stock. Instead, he takes major stakes in companies that generate ongoing income through dividends, strong pricing power, and long-term stability.

Cardone, on the other hand, built his empire through real estate, a sector he argues is even better for cash flow than stocks. While Buffett focuses on companies that pay him dividends, Cardone prefers properties that send him rental income every month. His belief is simple: why rely on stock price appreciation when you can own an asset that pays you whether the market is up or down?
The key difference between the two moguls is control. Buffett <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/02/43451833/warren-buffetts-1m-bet-why-simple-index-funds-crushed-hedge-funds-by-7-1-to-2-2-over-a-decade">invests in companies</a> but doesn't directly run them. His cash flow comes from owning substantial stakes in businesses that perform well on their own. Cardone, however, takes a more hands-on approach, building his own empire of income-generating properties where he controls the cash flow directly.

While Cardone might call Buffett a "coward investor" for his ultra-cautious approach, there's no denying that Buffett's method has built one of the greatest fortunes of all time. His long-term, cash flow-first mindset has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/12/42668097/warren-buffett-heads-into-2025-with-325-billion-cash-pile-his-largest-in-over-three-decades-expert-says-it-will-provide-an-opportunity-for-the-successors-to-make-their-own-mark">allowed him to amass billions</a> while barely selling any of his holdings. And in the end, both men share the same goal: making money work for them, even when they're not working.
Is Buffett really a coward investor? Or is he just the ultimate example of patience and discipline in the world of finance? Either way, one thing is clear—cash flow is king, and whether through real estate or stocks, those who master it will always have the upper hand.

'He's a Coward Investor' — Grant Cardone Said Warren Buffett Plays It Safe And Wants A Check Every Month

U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) took to X to highlight what he sees as a glaring issue of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42676387/bernie-sanders-the-american-people-are-disgusted-with-musk-calls-on-democrats-to-end-super-pacs-in-primaries">money in politics</a>. He wrote, "Elon Musk <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42378550/musk-kicked-in-more-than-a-quarter-billion-dollars-to-trump-and-gop">spent $277 million</a> to elect Donald Trump President. Since Election Day, he has become $154 billion richer. Not a bad return on his investment." The viral tweet, which amassed millions of views, underscores concerns about billionaire influence in elections and whether Musk's massive political spending has directly benefited his financial empire.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Musk's $277 Million Political Spending</h2>
<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-260-million-spending-trump-republican-party-2024-12">According to Business Insider</a>, Musk funneled most of his money—$239 million—into America PAC, a super PAC that spent heavily on pro-Trump canvassing, digital ads, and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41417390/elon-musks-pro-trump-super-pac-to-give-1m-every-day-to-people-in-swing-states-for-signing-his-petiti">controversial voter giveaways</a>. Another $20.5 million went to RBG PAC, which ran ads linking Trump's abortion stance to the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a move that outraged her family.
He also gave millions to Republican-aligned PACs, including $10 million to the Senate Leadership Fund, $2.3 million to Sentinel Action Fund, and $1 million to Early Vote Action PAC, among others. There's speculation that he contributed even more through dark money groups, which aren't required to disclose donors.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Musk's Wealth Skyrocketed After Trump's Win</h2>
By mid-December, Musk's fortune had jumped from $262 billion before the election to a peak of $486 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, fueled by a massive surge in Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) stock. The Washington Post reported that Tesla shares rose 70% post-election, with investors betting that Trump's pro-business policies, deregulation efforts, and his close ties to Musk would benefit Tesla, SpaceX, and Musk's other ventures.
Trump even <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/11/42069236/trump-tasked-elon-musk-to-oversee-government-efficiency-heres-how-musk-has-streamlined-costs-at-his-own-companies">appointed Musk</a> to co-chair the newly created Department of Government Efficiency, a move seen as a potential boost for Musk's businesses and potential conflicts of interest.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Sudden $43 Billion Drop After Trump's Inauguration</h2>
However, since Trump took office, Musk's net worth has dropped by $43 billion, mainly due to the administration's new tariffs on China, Canada, and Mexico. Per Newsweek, Tesla's 5.2% stock drop on Feb. 3, wiped out nearly $15 billion of Musk's wealth in a single day. By the end of the week, his net worth fell further to around $412 billion.

If They Could Show A Plan For Ending World Hunger He'd Donate $6 Billion – ‘I Will Sell Tesla Stock Right Now And Do It'</a>
Investors are worried that Trump's trade policies could raise Tesla's production costs, especially for battery materials like lithium and aluminum. China's potential retaliatory tariffs could also threaten Tesla's Shanghai Gigafactory and its growing EV market in the region.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Will Musk's "Investment" Pay Off in the Long Run?</h2>

Musk's massive election spending has already raised ethical concerns in Congress. U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) called it "an outrageous conflict of interest," while U.S. Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA) <a href="https://x.com/SenMarkey/status/1858559544101638344">warned</a> that Musk is "already getting a return on his investment in Trump."

'Not A Bad Return On His Investment'—Bernie Sanders Says Elon Musk Spent $277 Million To Elect Trump And Made $154 Billion Since Election Day

Warren Buffett's granddaughter Nicole Buffett says she was cut off financially and emotionally after speaking publicly about wealth inequality. Nicole, who was legally adopted by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/10/41198368/warren-buffetts-son-who-famously-cashed-in-his-90-000-inheritance-at-19-spends-millions-in-buffe">Buffett's son Peter</a>, described how her relationship with her grandfather soured after she appeared in "The One Percent," a 2006 documentary by Johnson &amp; Johnson (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JNJ#NYSE">JNJ</a>) heir Jamie Johnson.
"My grandfather is a very private man, and I decided to share what it's like to be his granddaughter, and it created a huge estrangement from him to the extent that he disowned my twin sister and myself," she told <a href="https://www.reuters.com/article/lifestyle/documentary-on-wealth-gap-divides-buffett-family-idUSN20404370/">Reuters in 2008</a>.
Despite not being biologically related, Nicole spent time with Warren growing up. She recalled receiving a $100 bill from him for Christmas when she was 5 and being given a private tour of the See's Candies factory. The family also vacationed at Warren's Laguna Beach home twice a year.&nbsp;

But while she experienced glimpses of the Buffett lifestyle, she was also expected to be financially independent. Warren covered her six-figure college tuition but maintained a strict policy of funding only education-related expenses. When she once asked for help buying a futon, his secretary reportedly reminded her of the rule.
In a 2008 <a href="https://www.marieclaire.com/culture/news/a2342/warren-buffett-granddaughter-nicole-buffett/">Marie Claire article</a>, Nicole described how being cut off left a permanent divide. "For him to discard me like that was devastating. It permanently divided our family," she said. She also explained that she was unaware of the full scope of Warren's wealth until she was 17 when he appeared on the cover of Forbes as America's richest man.
Trending: Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.
Her decision to participate in "The One Percent" was a breaking point. Nicole spoke about wealth inequality and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43496879/elon-musk-said-warren-buffett-managed-to-create-a-great-image-as-a-kindly-grandfather-but-thinks-thats-maybe-overstating-the-case">her grandfather's philosophy</a> on money, saying in the documentary, "Money is the spoke in my grandfather's wheel of life." Soon after, she received a letter from Warren stating: "I have not emotionally or legally adopted you as a grandchild, nor have the rest of my family adopted you as a niece or a cousin." To make it even clearer, he signed the letter "Warren" instead of "Grandpa."
Nicole later appeared on "Oprah," further discussing the family's financial views. Warren, who has publicly committed to donating the majority of his fortune to charity rather than passing it down to his children and grandchildren, was reportedly unhappy with the attention.

In the Marie Claire interview, Nicole revealed was living on $40,000 a year without cable TV or health insurance, far from what most people imagine when they hear the Buffett name. "The first thing most people think of when they hear my last name is money," she said.
Despite being cut off, she has since found success in the NFT art world, creating a series called Spirit Coins, which combines her traditional art background with digital technology. While her <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/43166526/billionaire-warren-buffetts-first-wife-said-he-cared-about-the-win-not-the-money-its-all-mental-with-him-and-money-is-his-scorecard">financial ties to the Buffett </a>empire have been severed, Nicole has carved out her own path, even if it looks nothing like the life she once knew.

Warren Buffett's Granddaughter Claimed He Cut Her Off And She Couldn't Afford Health Insurance: 'He Disowned My Twin Sister And Myself'

The return of President Donald Trump to the White House could trigger the release of Jeffrey Epstein&#8216;s infamous &#8220;black book,&#8221; as per <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/22/06/27557540/musk-says-he-wants-to-see-epstein-maxwell-client-list-twitterati-cant-stop-trolling-him-3">a Senate confirmation hearing</a>.
What Happened: Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) brought up the matter during a Senate confirmation hearing for Trump&#8217;s FBI Director-designate Kash Patel. Blackburn is a vocal advocate for the disclosure of documents related to Epstein&#8217;s international human trafficking and sex trafficking ring.
Blackburn urged Patel to collaborate with her on this matter. Patel responded positively, expressing his dedication to combating child sex trafficking in the United States, <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/jeffrey-epstein-files-trump-election-could-expose-names-black-book-list">reports</a> Fox News.
Epstein, a millionaire financier, passed away&nbsp;in federal custody in 2019&nbsp;while facing&nbsp;trial on sex trafficking charges.&nbsp;His alleged black book, thought to hold names of possible accomplices&nbsp;in his international sex trafficking&nbsp;ring, has yet to be revealed.

In 2020, a federal court mandated the release of thousands of pages of confidential records, unveiling&nbsp;nearly 200 names, many of&nbsp;whom are high-profile individuals. Despite this, the records remain inaccessible to the public.
Blackburn reiterated last week that&nbsp;&#8220;Americans deserve to know exactly&nbsp;who was affiliated with this&nbsp;network.&#8221; She expressed her eagerness to work with Patel to make Epstein&#8217;s flight logs and black book public.
Why It Matters: The release of Epstein&#8217;s &#8216;black book&#8217; could have significant implications, potentially exposing high-profile individuals involved&nbsp;in his international sex trafficking&nbsp;ring. This could lead to further investigations and legal actions against those implicated. 
The commitment of Patel to work with Blackburn on this issue signals a potential shift in the handling of Epstein&#8217;s case, which remains a topic of national interest and controversy. 
The public&#8217;s access to these records could shed light on the extent of Epstein&#8217;s network and the individuals involved, contributing to transparency and accountability.
