BIONOVATE TECHNOLOGIES by Bionovate Technologies Corp.

Bionovate Technologies Corp

Bitwise&nbsp;Chief Investment Officer&nbsp;Matt Hougan argued on Tuesday that associating the Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) Treasury reserve strategy solely with MicroStrategy Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) would be inaccurate, as companies buying the apex cryptocurrency is now a &#8220;bona fide megatrend.&#8221;
What Happened: In a research note, Hougan stated that while the Michael Saylor-led firm walked away with most media attention, as many as 70 publicly traded companies and many private firms had Bitcoin on their balance sheets.
&#8220;I've come away thinking that this is a&nbsp;much&nbsp;bigger trend than most people realize. In fact, I think it's a bona fide megatrend,&#8221; Hougan added.
The analyst underlined that apart from cryptocurrency-focused firms like Coinbase and MARA Holdings, many non-cryptocurrency companies like Elon Musk&#8217;s Tesla have stacked Bitcoin on their books.

According to <a href="https://bitcointreasuries.net/">BitcoinTreasuries.com</a>, MicroStrategy was the largest corporate holder with over $43 billion in Bitcoin, followed by MARA with $4.36 billion worth of the leading digital asset. Tesla held about $944 million in Bitcoin as of this writing.
Additionally, big private companies like SpaceX also boasted significant Bitcoin holdings, valued at over $800 million.
&#8220;That's significant. It means that, even today, MicroStrategy is less than 50% of the corporate BTC market. I suspect it'll be a small fraction of it eventually,&#8221; Hougan said.

The reputational risks linked with Bitcoin have considerably lessened in recent months, particularly after Donald Trump&#8217;s victory, with top Washington officials <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/42962279/trump-could-sign-crypto-related-executive-orders-on-day-1-report">showing increased acceptance of cryptocurrency</a>, Hougan stated.
Moreover, the Financial Accounting Standards&nbsp;Board introduced a new rule in December, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42502213/new-crypto-accounting-standards-from-todaywill-it-boost-bitcoins-corporate-adoption">changing how Bitcoin&nbsp;is accounted for in GAAP&nbsp;reporting</a>.
Hougan said that these factors could eventually cause the number of firms buying Bitcoin to &#8220;explode&#8221; in the coming years.
Why It Matters: MicroStrategy has been aggressively issuing convertible debt and other fixed-income securities to buy Bitcoin in recent months and appears prepared to employ all corporate maneuvers at its disposal to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42665877/microstrategy-to-hold-special-shareholder-vote-to-support-the-42-billion-bitcoin-acquisition-strategy">bolster its 21/21 plan</a>.
However, the strategy was drawn a fair bit of criticism. 
Arthur Hayes, co-founder of cryptocurrency exchange BitMEX, expressed concerns over MicroStrategy's debt-powered Bitcoin buying strategy. In an interview with&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/42963353/michael-saylors-microstrategy-will-struggle-when-bitcoins-volatility-falls-says-arthur-hay">Benzinga</a>, Hayes predicted challenging times for the firm when the top cryptocurrency loses volatility.
Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $96,996.88, up 1.91% in the last 24 hours, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA.." target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
Shares of MicroStrategy rose 4.19% to 342.17 during Tuesday's regular session and were up 0,56% in pre-market trading.

Michael Saylor's MicroStrategy Not Alone In Bitcoin Acquisition, Says Bitwise Chief Investment Officer: 'It's A Bona Fide Megatrend'

South Korean markets showed resilience Wednesday as President Yoon Suk Yeol was taken into custody, with the benchmark KOSPI rising 0.40% to 2,507.35 amid heightened political uncertainty.
Yoon, 64, was detained at 10:33 a.m. local time by a joint probe team investigating allegations related to his December martial law declaration, marking an unprecedented arrest of a sitting South Korean president. 
The arrest came after an initial failed attempt on Jan. 3 that resulted in a standoff between investigators and presidential security, <a href="https://www.koreaherald.com/article/10390439">reported</a> The Korean Herald.
Despite the political upheaval, major South Korean stocks held steady. SK Hynix Inc. led the gains, climbing 2.31% to 1,99,800 South Korean won ($136.90). Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SSNLF#OTC">SSNLF</a>) rose 0.37% to 54,100 South Korean won ($37.06), while KB Financial Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KB#NYSE">KB</a>) gained 0.90%, reaching 89,500 South Korean won ($61.31). Hyundai Motor (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HYMTF#OTC">HYMTF</a>) saw a slight decline of 0.23%, trading at 2,21,500 South Korean won ($151.76). 
The iShares MSCI South Korea ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWY#NYSE">EWY</a>), a key indicator for U.S. investors, gained 0.94% on Tuesday.
The Korean won remained stable against the U.S. dollar, trading at 1,460.52 South Korean won, down marginally by 0.063%. 
The arrest warrant for President Yoon, which expires Jan. 21, includes charges of power abuse and insurrection. The investigation is led by the Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials.

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol Arrested — KOSPI Edges Higher Despite Political Upheaval, Won Stable

Jim Cramer is steering investors toward quantum computing stocks while expressing concerns about Super Micro Computer Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) amid its auditor changes.
What Happened: The CNBC&#8217;s &#8220;Mad Money&#8221; host announced on X on Tuesday his strategy to reinvest gains from GameStop Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GME#NYSE">GME</a>) into quantum computing stocks, particularly as Rigetti Computing Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RGTI#NASDAQ">RGTI</a>) saw extraordinary trading volume of 352 million shares against its 280 million outstanding shares. &#8220;They are trying so hard to walk it up now,&#8221; Cramer said.

Rigetti&#8217;s stock surged 47.93% to close at $8.95, rebounding from last week&#8217;s sector-wide selloff triggered by cautionary comments from tech leaders. The quantum computing sector, including IonQ Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IONQ#NYSE">IONQ</a>) and D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QBTS#NYSE">QBTS</a>), showed strong recovery despite recent skepticism from industry giants.

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

This recovery comes after Nvidia Corp. CEO Jensen Huang&#8216;s assessment that practical quantum computing applications might be 15-30 years away, with 20 years being the most likely timeline. Meta Platforms CEO Mark Zuckerberg <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/42939766/quantum-computing-stocks-tumble-after-mark-zuckerberg-backs-nvidia-ceo-jensen-huangs-practical-c">echoed similar sentiments</a> about the technology&#8217;s current limitations.
Meanwhile, Cramer took a decisive stance against Super Micro Computer, stating <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/01/14/cramers-lightning-round-super-micro-computer-is-a-sell.html">on</a> CNBC, &#8220;Sell.

Why It Matters: Cramer&#8217;s comments follow SMCI&#8217;s recent auditor switch after Ernst &amp; Young&#8216;s unexpected departure in December. The company, known for its partnership with Nvidia, had been facing potential Nasdaq delisting risks due to delayed financial filings before securing a new auditor.
The market reflected these developments with GameStop shares falling 10.15% to $27.88, while Super Micro Computer declined 1.77% to close at $30.53.

Jim Cramer Eyes Quantum Computing Stocks Like Rigetti, Warns Against Super Micro Computer: 'They Are Trying So Hard To Walk It Up Now'

On Tuesday, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission initiated a lawsuit against Elon Musk, accusing him of failing to disclose his substantial stake in Twitter, now rebranded as X.
What Happened: The lawsuit outlines that before Musk completed his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/25/01/42794433/if-you-invested-1000-in-dogecoin-when-elon-musk-acquired-twitter-heres-how-much-youd-have-now">$44 million acquisition of Twitter</a> in October 2022, he had already started amassing a significant number of shares.
By March 2022, Musk had acquired over 5% of Twitter&#8217;s common stock, a threshold that required disclosure to the SEC within 10 days.
This alleged non-disclosure allowed Musk to acquire shares at &#8220;artificially low prices,&#8221; according to the SEC.
The complaint, lodged in a federal court in Washington, D.C., accuses Musk and his wealth manager of withholding this crucial information to avoid a potential surge in Twitter&#8217;s stock price.

This alleged omission enabled Musk to underpay Twitter investors by more than $150 million for his stock purchases during this period.
According to the lawsuit, Musk increased his stake to 7% by purchasing nearly 3.5 million shares on March 25, 2022.
He later joined Twitter&#8217;s board and formally disclosed his stake in early April 2022, by which time he owned over 9% of the company, causing Twitter&#8217;s stock price to rise by more than 27%.
Why It Matters: Last month, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/24/12/42487993/elon-musk-faces-deadline-to-settle-with-sec-over-twitter-buyout-lawyer-alleges-years-of-harassment">Musk faced a deadline</a> to settle with the SEC over his Twitter buyout, with his lawyer alleging &#8220;years of harassment&#8221; by the agency. The inquiry focused on Musk&#8217;s sale of Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) shares and his growing investment in Twitter before announcing a leveraged buyout of the social media platform in 2022.
In October 2024, the SEC rejected Musk&#8217;s offer to pay $2,923 for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41559160/elon-musks-2-9k-offer-rejected-by-sec-agency-requests-judge-to-sanction-billionaire-over-missed-depo">missing a deposition</a> related to his 2022 Twitter purchase, seeking sanctions against him instead.
Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, co-leading the &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42035165/coinbase-ceo-brian-armstrong-says-doge-department-is-a-once-in-a-lifetime-opprtunity-advocates-abolishing-individual-income-tax">Department of Government Efficiency</a>&#8221; in Donald Trump's administration, have previously criticized the SEC, labeling it as a &#8220;weaponized institution.&#8221;&nbsp;Their statement came following the Fifth Circuit Court decision that the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42469967/elon-musk-vivek-ramaswamy-slam-sec-just-another-weaponized-institution">SEC exceeded its authority</a> by approving Nasdaq&#8217;s diversity quota policy.

President Biden announced a one-time payment of $770 for victims of the ongoing California wildfires on Monday.
What Happened: The announcement came during a wildfire briefing at the White House on Monday. The President emphasized that the federal support is not waiting for the fires to end, but is being provided immediately, <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5084128-california-wildfires-federal-payments/">reported</a> The Hill.
&#8220;We're getting them help right now, as you all know. People impacted by these fires are going to receive a one-time payment of $770, one-time payment, so they quickly purchase things like water, baby formula and prescription,&#8221; said Biden.
According to the President, nearly 6,000 survivors have already registered for the program, and $5.1 million has been disbursed. The Federal Emergency Management Agency activated its Critical Needs Assistance Program last week, which facilitated the initial one-time payment.
Biden also provided updates on the containment of the wildfires, reporting 14% containment in Pacific Palisades, 33% in Pasadena, and 100% in Ventura. He confirmed last week that the federal government will cover 100% of the costs of California's efforts to fight the wildfires for 180 days, extending into the upcoming administration of President-elect Trump.
The announcement comes amidst public disagreements between President-elect Donald Trump and California Gov. Gavin Newsom over the handling of the fires. Newsom has expressed concerns that the incoming administration could withhold disaster aid to California.

Why It Matters: The wildfires in California have been a major cause of concern, with the National Weather Service issuing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/25/01/42953761/santa-ana-winds-return-as-la-wildfire-damage-estimates-rise-to-at-least-250-billion-fire-officials-investigate-downed-power-lines">severe fire warnings</a> for Los Angeles County. The fires have resulted in at least 24 deaths and damage to over 12,000 structures, with the total damage and economic loss estimated to be between $250 billion and $275 billion.
Furthermore, the Los Angeles area has been bracing for more &#8220;extreme fire weather&#8221; with high winds of 40 to 70 miles per hour, making the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42983439/la-braces-for-another-extreme-fire-weather-scenario-multiple-lawsuits-filed-against-edison-over-eaton-fire-damages">containment of the wildfires even more challenging</a>. The Eaton Fire and the Palisades Fire were reported to be at 35% and 17% containment respectively, as of Tuesday morning.

What's left on the bucket list of a billionaire who has seemingly done it all? For <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/11/42089647/bill-gates-owns-275000-acres-of-farmland-which-grows-potatoes-for-mcdonalds-fries-and-he-eats-them-free-thanks-to-his-rare-mcgold-card">Bill Gates</a>, the answer is unexpectedly simple: "Don't die."
The quip came during a 2013 Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything), where Gates, then the cochair of the Bill &amp; Melinda Gates Foundation, fielded questions about everything from eradicating polio to his favorite books. Known for his sharp mind and dry humor, Gates didn't miss a beat when asked about his personal bucket list, delivering the kind of witty, understated response he could pull off.
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>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>.</li>
<li>With 100+ historic trademarks including some of the high grossing characters in history, like Cinderella, Snow White and Peter Pan, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/elf-labs-1">this company is transforming the $2 trillion entertainment market with patented AR, VR, and AI tech. — For a short window, investors are able to claim $2/share ($980 min).</a></li>
</ul>
At the time of the AMA, Gates was still the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/07/39600675/bill-gates-was-the-worlds-richest-man-for-a-record-18-years-his-secret-to-success-saving-like-a-">richest man in the world</a> – a title he'd held for years. With his Microsoft days behind him, his full focus was on philanthropy, tackling some of the world's biggest challenges like global health, education and poverty. So, it's fair to ask: what does someone who can visit Antarctica for fun, tour the Large Hadron Collider with his kids or fund groundbreaking vaccine research want to accomplish next?
Of course, Gates wasn't just thinking about longevity. Throughout the AMA, he offered thoughtful reflections on his work, values and legacy.
For instance, he explained why he and Melinda decided not to leave their children massive inheritances. "I definitely think <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/07/40015377/bill-gates-children-will-only-inherit-10-million-0-0077-of-his-net-worth-leaving-kids-massive-am">leaving kids massive amounts of money</a> is not a favor to them," Gates wrote. Inspired by Warren Buffett's perspective, he shared how this philosophy shaped his own approach to wealth and giving. "Some people disagree with this, but Melinda and I feel good about it."
<iframe loading="lazy" height="550px" scrolling="no" src="https://products.gobankingrates.com/pub/7f0b1145-f226-466d-b177-309e9bfa4a82?targeting[category]=&amp;targeting[company_product]=newsgen-article&amp;targeting[pub_inventory]=/personal-finance/25/01/42992135/billionaire-bill-gates-was-asked-whats-left-on-his-bucket-list-he-reveals-theres-only-one-thing-dont-die" width="100%"></iframe>
See Also: Inspired by Uber and Airbnb &#8211; Deloitte's fastest-growing software company is transforming 7 billion smartphones into income-generating assets &#8211; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">with $1,000 you can invest at just $0.26/share!</a>
When asked how he measures success at his foundation, Gates pointed to one of his core goals: reducing the number of children under five who die from preventable causes. "Amazingly, as health improves, families choose to have fewer kids," he said, noting the surprising ways improving health impacts broader global issues.
And while he's no longer the code-writing tech visionary who built Microsoft, Gates still enjoys dabbling in programming. "Not as much as I would like to," he admitted when asked if he still codes. "I write some C, C# and some Basic. I am surprised new languages have not made more progress in simplifying programming."
Trending: These five entrepreneurs are worth $223 billion –<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/arrived-homes-private-credit-fund"> they all believe in one platform that offers a 7-9% target yield with monthly dividends</a>
Despite his accomplishments, Gates's answers often revealed a grounded, curious side. He spoke of his love for tennis, bridge and "touring interesting things" with his kids – whether it's a garbage dump or a missile silo. He confessed his favorite book at the time, Steven Pinker's Better Angels of Our Nature and waxed optimistic about the future of energy, education and even robotics.
As one of the wealthiest and most influential people on the planet, Gates could probably write a bucket list that would put everyone else's to shame. But his AMA response distilled a truth that even billionaires can't escape: at the end of the day, the ultimate goal is just to keep going.
"Don't die" – equal parts humor and reality – might be the most relatable thing Gates has ever said.

Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning Molina Healthcare Stock In The Last 20 Years

President Joe Biden received low approval ratings and scores on a four-year progress report in two separate voter polls ahead of his exit from the White House on Monday, Jan. 20.
Approval Rating Drops: Biden, who famously <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/07/39874057/biden-drops-out-of-2024-race-in-bombshell-announcement-it-has-been-the-greatest-honor-of-my-life">dropped out of </a>the 2024 presidential election, will now leave the White House after one term and see the Republican party take over with Donald Trump as the next president.
A new Emerson College <a href="https://emersoncollegepolling.com/january-2025-national-poll-democrats-republicans-and-independents-agree-u-s-is-on-the-wrong-track/">poll </a>showed Biden will likely leave the White House with low approval ratings.
The poll, conducted from Jan. 10 through Jan. 11, found Biden had a 37% job approval rating and 52% disapproval rating as he nears his exit.
Here is the approval ratings by political party, with the remaining percent neutral or no rating:
<ul>
<li>Democrats: 70% approval, 18% disapproval</li>
<li>Republicans: 10% approval, 85% disapproval</li>
<li>Independents: 33% approval, 50% disapproval</li>
</ul>
"President Biden closes his term with an approval rating 12 points lower than the first Emerson national poll in 2021 that measured the president's approval, at 49%," Emerson College Polling executive director Spencer Kimball said.
Since the 2021 poll, Biden's approval rating dropped 16 points for Democrats, two points for Independents and 10 points for Republicans.
The new poll also found that 67% of voters think America is on the wrong track, with 33% saying the country is headed in the right direction. When Biden started his presidency in 2021, 54% of voters thought the country was on the wrong track and 46% thought the country was headed in the right direction.

</ul>
Biden Progress Report: A Gallup <a href="https://news.gallup.com/poll/655112/americans-little-progress-key-areas-biden.aspx">poll </a>conducted in December had its results published this week. The poll found that Americans see minimal progress in 18 key areas under Biden's leadership.
The poll asked voters to pick if the country made progress or lost ground during Biden's four years in office and gives a net progress score that is made up of progress minus lost ground.
Across the 18 economic, national and international issues, Biden only had a positive net progress rating for one item, which was the situation for gay, lesbian and transgender people (+16 points).
The worst scoring topics among the 18 questions for Biden on a net rating score were:
<ul>
<li>Federal debt: -56 points</li>
<li>Immigration: -51 points</li>
<li>Gap between the wealthy and less well-off: -50 points</li>
<li>Taxes: -37 points</li>
<li>Economy: -33 points</li>
</ul>
Biden received a score of over 50% saying the country lost ground in many of the topics, including federal debt (67%), immigration (64%), the gap between the wealthy and less well-off (60%), the economy (59%), the U.S. position in the world (58%) and crime (51%).
By political party, Biden saw a positive net rating in 14 of the 18 categories from Democratic voters and saw a positive net rating in 1 of the 18 categories from Republican voters.
Democrats gave Biden the best scores in the categories of energy (+51), nation's infrastructure (+42) and trade relations with other countries (+42). Republicans gave Biden a positive rating on the situation for gay, lesbian and transgender people (+6), while climate change (-22) and race relations (-22) were the next highest-scoring categories.
The Gallup poll offers comparisons between past presidents with the new poll showing the progress the country had from Trump to Biden. Past polls have shown progress made from George W. Bush's second term to Barack Obama and to Trump.
Biden had an average of -27 points for the 18 categories, compared to -12 points for Trump and -12 points for Obama.
Biden saw an improvement in only one of the 18 categories, compared to Trump having six categories improved from Obama's presidency, and Obama having four categories improved from Bush's second term.
Gallup notes that recent presidents have not scored high on the multi-point progress point, even Obama who had "relatively high job approval ratings" when he left office.
