Alterego's "near-telepathic" wearable turns thoughts into commands without speaking

Larry Ellison didn't just beat Elon Musk to the top spot - he obliterated him with a $100B single-day wealth jump that would make lottery winners weep.

Oracle's stock exploded 40% Wednesday after revealing $455B in future AI infrastructure contracts. The crown jewel? A $300B deal with OpenAI committing to $60B annually starting 2027.

This isn't just another tech earnings beat. Oracle positioned itself as the picks-and-shovels play for the AI gold rush, projecting cloud infrastructure revenue from $18B to $144B within five years - mostly locked in with signed contracts.

While everyone obsessed over Nvidia's chips, Oracle quietly became the landlord collecting rent from every AI company desperate for compute capacity.

The bottom line: When trillion-dollar initiatives like Stargate need infrastructure, Oracle owns the real estate. And Ellison just became richer than Musk by betting on AI's unsexy backend.

Solana's Perfect Storm Is Here

Forget the noise - Solana is setting up for the kind of rally that creates generational wealth.

Matt Hougan from Bitwise just called it: "The ingredients are all there" for SOL's epic end-of-year surge. And the math checks out brutally.

Seven spot Solana ETF filings face SEC ruling by October 10. Even partial approval opens institutional floodgates the same way Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs did.

But here's the real catalyst: Forward Industries raised $1.65B specifically to buy and stake SOL directly. With Galaxy, Jump, and Multicoin backing them, they're positioning as Solana's Michael Saylor.

The size advantage is devastating. At $116B market cap versus Bitcoin's $2.2T, Forward's $1.65B buy hits like a $33B Bitcoin purchase. Public companies already stacked $400M in SOL this year - and that's just the beginning.

Solana's pending upgrade slashes finality from 12 seconds to 150 milliseconds with sub-cent fees. No Layer 2 complexity required.

The brutal truth: Bitcoin proved the institutional playbook in 2024. Ethereum repeated it in 2025. Now every condition is converging for Solana's turn.

Watch SOL at $225. This isn't speculation - it's pattern recognition.
