During a recent episode of the &#8220;All-In Podcast,&#8221; Chamath Palihapitiya discussed the potential impact of Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy using the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to simplify the U.S. tax code.
What Happened: Palihapitiya highlighted the significant public response to a post by the official X page of DOGE, which questioned opinions about the IRS. He noted that many people expressed a desire for a flat tax system, suggesting a willingness to pay a flexible tax rate if it meant simplifying the tax code.
&#8220;If these guys basically use DOGE as a mechanism to shrink the tax code, create a flat tax, potentially&#8230;the idea of just cutting this all the way down and then finding through that process what you actually need, I think can find America 100-200 basis points of GDP growth. It could be an economic renaissance.&#8221;
Palihapitiya emphasized that such changes would require Congressional approval but could lead to a more rational fiscal approach.
Furthermore, Palihapitiya believes this initiative could empower average Americans by giving them a sense of control over government spending, marking a moral and symbolic victory in fiscal policy.

The department&#8217;s work is expected to be completed by July 4, 2026, aligning with America&#8217;s 250th independence anniversary. Trump&#8217;s statement emphasized the role of Musk and Ramaswamy in paving the way for his administration to dismantle government bureaucracy.

Analysts are closely examining the impact of&nbsp;Michael Saylor, co-founder of&nbsp;MicroStrategy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>), on exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that are<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/42186167/michael-saylors-microstrategy-convertible-notes-to-buy-bitcoin-offer-no-interest-so-why-are-investors-rushing-to-buy-them"> linked to the company&#8217;s performance</a>. This comes amid a significant surge in MicroStrategy&#8217;s stock, driven by its substantial Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) holdings.
What Happened: The volatility of&nbsp;MicroStrategy has led to significant returns for ETFs tied to its performance. The stock has surged 416.19% year-to-date, impacting various ETFs.
The&nbsp;Bitwise Crypto Industry Innovators ETF&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BITQ#NYSE">BITQ</a>) with 18.35% MSTR holding saw a rise of 68.58% so far this year, while the&nbsp;Schwab Crypto Thematic ETF&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STCE#NYSE">STCE</a>), which gives 14.4% exposure to MSTR, increased by 55.07%.
The&nbsp;T-Rex 2x Long MSTR Daily&nbsp;Target&nbsp;(BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTU#BATS">MSTU</a>) experienced a remarkable 453.76% gain, and the&nbsp;Defiance Daily Target 2x Long&nbsp;MSTR ETF&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTX#NASDAQ">MSTX</a>) rose by 309.09%, Barron&#8217;s <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">reported</a> on Wednesday. 
Both T-Rex and Defiance have hedged with inverse ETFs, but the&nbsp;T-Rex 2x Inverse MSTR Daily&nbsp;Target (MSTZ) holds&nbsp;only $155 million in assets.

Matthew Tuttle, manager of the T-Rex ETF, attributes this phenomenon to &#8220;The Michael Saylor effect,&#8221; likening it to the influence of other high-profile CEOs like Elon Musk and Jensen Huang, reported Barron&#8217;s. Tuttle acknowledges the risk, noting that from a fundamental perspective, MicroStrategy&#8217;s valuation appears inflated.
Why It Matters: On Monday, MicroStrategy <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42159139/microstrategy-shares-rise-in-monday-pre-market-as-michael-saylor-reveals-mstr-generating-500m-daily-amid-bitcoins-surge">shares climbed 5.93% in pre-market </a>trading before <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/42208320/michael-saylors-microstrategy-plunges-23-in-5-sessions-while-bitcoin-slips-under-6-gary-black-quips-dont-say-i-didnt-warn-you">closing the session</a> in the red. Over the weekend, Saylor revealed that the company is generating $500 million daily as Bitcoin edges closer to the $100,000 milestone.
According to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro data,</a> MicroStrategy has a consensus price target of $449.5 based on the ratings of 12 analysts. The high is $690 issued by BTIG on Dec. 11, 2023. The low is $140 issued by Jefferies on Nov. 10, 2022. The average price target of $563.33 between TD Cowen, Barclays, and Benchmark implies a 41.90% upside for MicroStrategy.

MARA Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MARA#NASDAQ">MARA</a>)&nbsp;exhorted the incoming Donald Trump administration to expand domestic Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) mining operations, emphasizing the significance of the U.S.&nbsp;controlling a larger portion of&nbsp;the global hash rate for economic sovereignty.
What Happened:&nbsp;In an X post on Tuesday, the company highlighted the increasing competitiveness of Bitcoin mining and the potential economic implications of not securing a significant&nbsp;share of the global hash rate. 
The company stressed that by&nbsp;controlling a larger portion of&nbsp;the&nbsp;hash rate—the computational power used to validate transactions and add new blocks to the blockchain—the U.S. can protect its transactions from foreign interference.
&#8220;By controlling hash rate, a nation can prioritize access to block space, preventing adversarial nations from censoring or manipulating its transactions,&#8221; MARA added.

For the uninitiated, Bitcoin&#8217;s blockspace represents the finite capacity available in each block to include transaction data. 
Access to block space is vital for participating in the Bitcoin economy, and miners or mining pools with a higher hash rate can prioritize transactions in a block.
Why It Matters: Mara&#8217;s recommendation follows President Trump&#8217;s assured support to the industry, with a vision to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/06/39363038/donald-trump-speaks-on-bitcoin-mining-wants-all-the-remaining-bitcoin-to-be-made-in-the-us">mine all remaining Bitcoins in the U.S</a>.
The pledge, aligning with his &#8220;America First&#8221; policy, seemed to be directed against China, which, despite a ban on cryptocurrency trading and mining,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/09/40985461/china-controls-55-of-bitcoin-hashrate-despite-crypto-ban-but-the-us-is-catching-up" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">still controls over 50% of the global Bitcoin hash rate</a>.
According to Bitbo <a href="https://charts.bitbo.io/miner-monthly-revenue/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data</a>, miner revenue in November increased by 3.4% from the previous month, primarily driven by the jump in Bitcoin&#8217;s price following Trump&#8217;s election victory.
The broader corporate Bitcoin mining sector has seen gains since the event, with CoinShares Valkyrie Bitcoin Miners ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WGMI#NASDAQ">WGMI</a>) rising 18%.

Elon Musk-led&nbsp;SpaceX&nbsp;has obtained a commercial license from the&nbsp;Federal Communications Commission (FCC)&nbsp;for its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/starlink">Starlink Direct-to-Cell service</a>. This marks a pivotal step in expanding the reach of satellite-based mobile connectivity.
What Happened: The FCC has granted SpaceX a U.S. commercial license for its Starlink Direct-to-Cell service. This license allows SpaceX to operate its Gen2 Starlink satellites for non-geostationary orbit fixed-satellite services.
The FCC&#8217;s order partially approves SpaceX&#8217;s application&nbsp;to construct, deploy, and operate&nbsp;these satellites, with certain conditions.
The license also includes permission for SpaceX&nbsp;to provide Supplemental Coverage from&nbsp;Space (SCS) within the U.S. and to conduct direct-to-cell operations outside the country using its existing 7,500 Gen2 Starlink satellites.

Previously, the FCC granted SpaceX and&nbsp;T-Mobile US Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TMUS#NASDAQ">TMUS</a>)&nbsp;Special Temporary Authority (STA) to&nbsp;deliver Starlink Direct-to-Cell services in regions affected&nbsp;by Hurricanes Helene and Milton.
This service proved crucial in aiding recovery efforts, connecting 270,000 mobile phones, all belonging to T-Mobile subscribers, as reported by SpaceX earlier this month.
Why It Matters: This FCC license is a major milestone for SpaceX&#8217;s Starlink, enabling it to enhance mobile connectivity.
Earlier this month, SpaceX and T-Mobile activated their Direct-to-Cell coverage in Florida before&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41243785/spacexs-starlink-and-t-mobile-get-approval-to-roll-out-direct-to-cell-coverage-in-florida-before-hur">Hurricane Milton</a>&nbsp;made landfall. This initiative allowed residents to send messages, contact emergency services, and receive alerts, even when traditional networks were down.
In September, T-Mobile successfully sent its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40826886/t-mobile-sends-first-wireless-emergency-alert-via-spacexs-starlink-satellites-in-space">first wireless emergency alert</a> via Starlink satellites, highlighting the potential of this technology in public safety. The alert was transmitted from a Starlink satellite in low-Earth orbit, functioning as a cell tower in space, and was received by a T-Mobile smartphone within seconds. This demonstrated the capability of Starlink to provide geographically targeted alerts in emergencies.
Moreover, SpaceX executive Benjamin Longmier recently clarified that Starlink would <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41592030/worried-starlink-wont-work-on-cell-phones-indoors-spacex-engineer-clears-the-air">enable connectivity for cellphones even indoors</a>, addressing concerns about signal availability.
This comes at a time when SpaceX CEO Musk said that the company will use proceeds from its Starlink service to fund the Mars mission.
SpaceX is also reportedly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42022150/spacex-to-launch-tender-offer-valuing-company-at-over-250-billion-report">preparing to launch a tender offer</a> that values the company at $250 billion. While the company is private, investors can leverage&nbsp;Destiny Tech100 Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DXYZ#NYSE">DXYZ</a>)&nbsp;and&nbsp;Cathie Wood‘s&nbsp;Ark Venture Fund&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKVX#NASDAQ">ARKVX</a>) to participate in the Musk-led space company&#8217;s growth.
