🚦 “Crypto traffic lights: Good or bad?” — Levi’s corporate FOMO. The Fantastic American 4. Bitcoin’s speed limit.

The Chief of Wall Street said that crypto is the “Wild West,” so we’re looking at Bitcoin’s Traffic Light problem (or is it an opportunity?). Levi’s just bought Beyond Yoga because it’s got a case of Corporate FOMO. And the Big 3 car companies just said they’ll go 50% electric by 2030.

Molson Coors is retiring 11 classic brew brands because beer is like an airplane.

DoorDash just launched a new ghost kitchen, but the shocker is who’s actually whipping up the eggs… DoorDash is chef. Comcast isn’t just keeping you on hold to complain about the internet speed — it’s become the anti-Disney.

🛍️ “Not PrimeCoin” — Amazon’s Bitcoin drama. Hasbro’s secret movie. Lucid’s semi-zucking.

Bitcoin just jumped 15% after a PFWTM mentioned that Amazon will accept Bitcoin and then launch its own crypto… but then everything changed at 4:55pm. Hasbro shares jumped 12% on My Little Pony love, but the surprise is its secretive movie studio.

Tesla’s kept a profit puppy hidden from us the last few years… but now it’s giving it away to competitors?

💩 “Why stocks dropped big” — The Dow’s 700-point plummet. Tractor Supply’s chicken surge. Hero’s conversational commerce.

The Dow suffered its biggest drop of the year because the stock market narrative can change freakishly fast. Tractor Supply Company loves farmers, ranchers and chiclets (literally, lots of chickens) — small niche, big profits. And Hero is Klarna’s latest acquisition to turn in-store sales associates into online influencers. $TSCO Got a SnackFact?
