🚨 BlackRock agrees to buy investment firm HPS in $12bn deal

BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager, has agreed to acquire HPS Investment Partners, a leading private credit firm, in a $12 billion deal. This acquisition is part of BlackRock's strategy to expand its presence in the fast-growing and lucrative alternative assets market, which includes private credit, infrastructure, and private markets.

The deal will significantly boost BlackRock's alternative assets under management, which are expected to reach nearly $600 billion. This move puts BlackRock in direct competition with other major alternative asset managers, such as KKR, Blackstone, and Apollo. The acquisition is seen as a strategic move by BlackRock CEO Larry Fink to diversify the company's business beyond traditional equities and bonds and capitalize on the growing demand for higher-yielding alternative investments from institutional investors like insurers and pension funds.

🔍 Elon Musk's xAI gearing up for a consumer app

Elon Musk’s AI venture, xAI, is set to release a stand-alone app for its Grok chatbot, potentially rivaling OpenAI’s ChatGPT. After a major funding round, which could push its valuation to $50 billion, xAI is rapidly growing, with some early investors poised to cash in on the company’s success.

We wonder if they'll make a million alternative apps for GROK too, or if that's just the fate of ChatGPT

⛔️ Australia sets age limits on social media for under-16s

Starting November 2025, Australia will require social media platforms to verify users’ ages to block access for those under 16. Platforms that fail to take “reasonable steps” could face fines of up to $32M. Lawmakers fast-tracked the decision, despite tech companies like Google and Meta pushing for delays until after an age-verification trial wraps up.

The good news? Age checks won’t require sensitive data like passports. This bold move aims to protect kids' well-being – will the rest of the world follow suit? We don't think so.

⛔️ North Korean hackers pose as VCs and remote workers to steal billions

North Korean hackers are taking creativity to the next level, pretending to be venture capitalists, recruiters, and remote IT workers to steal billions in cryptocurrency. Using fake identities and AI-generated profiles, they infiltrate companies, earn paychecks, and steal secrets – all while funding North Korea’s weapons program.

One trick? Fake recruiters set up “malfunctioning” meetings to push malware downloads. Another? Remote hires use U.S.-based accomplices to manage work laptops. These schemes have hit hundreds of companies, making vigilance and better vetting a top priority.

🤴 How Elon Musk became a kingmaker

Elon Musk is quite the character, isn’t he? Cars, rockets, tunnels, Twitter chaos, AI startups, and lawsuits with OpenAI – it’s exhausting to keep up.

Now, he’s diving into politics in his own quirky way. Musk has declared himself Trump’s “First Buddy” (like First Lady, but bros), launched a DOGE ministry aimed at saving trillions in U.S. inefficiencies, and recruited a bunch of top-tier IT figures to help.

Time has a deep dive comparing Musk to Boris Berezovsky, raising big questions: Why is he doing this? Will DOGE really make an impact? And what about the investigations into his companies?


Worth a read – these aren’t your everyday experiments 👇

🎮 How Appcharge levels up gaming revenues

Appcharge raised $26M to help game developers ditch Apple and Google’s app store fees. Their “Shopify for gaming” platform lets devs sell virtual goods directly to players – $200M processed so far and just getting started.

If they can convince more publishers to adopt this model, Appcharge could accelerate a major shift in how games handle monetization, giving developers more control and potentially reshaping the industry.
