Anthony Scaramucci, CEO of investment firm&nbsp;SkyBridge Capital and a vocal cryptocurrency advocate, predicted a significant role for Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>) in the impending layer-1 blockchain revolution, while also revealing his substantial exposure to the fifth-largest cryptocurrency.
What Happened: During the recent Breakpoint 2024 conference, Scaramucci highlighted the potential of tokenization to revolutionize the current financial system. He pointed out that approximately $7 trillion is spent annually on transaction verification, a cost that could be significantly reduced through tokenization.
He stressed on the need for eliminating third parties and utilizing blockchain&#8217;s trustless technology to verify transactions.
&#8220;This system is actually a flawless and a near perfect system, and hopefully the tokenization will happen on Solana,&#8221; Scaramucci stated. The former White House Communications Director added that he owns &#8220;a lot of&#8221; Solana.

Why It Matters: Solana is often dubbed as an &#8220;Ethereum Killer&#8221; and its proponents favorably compare the network with Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) on parameters such as transaction speed and cost.
Tokenization of real-world assets was emerging as a hot new narrative in the Web3 realm, with the industry having $5.72 billion in total locked as of this writing, <a href="https://defillama.com/protocols/RWA" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">according </a>to DeFiLlama.
In layman&#8217;s terms, tokenization can be defined as the process of bringing off-chain assets like bonds, real estate, commodities, and much more on blockchain rails,&nbsp; opening up new avenues of growth for both traditional and decentralized finance.
Price Action: At the time of writing, SOL was exchanging hands at $148.87, up 0.21% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Anthony Scaramucci Discloses Holding 'A Lot Of' Solana, Backs The 'Ethereum Killer' Network To Lead Tokenization Revolution

A two-and-a-half-year-old Siamese cat named Rayne Beau was reunited with his owners, Susanne and Benny Anguiano, after disappearing in Yellowstone National Park. The cat lost in the national park traveled over 900 miles to return home after two months.
What Happened: The Anguianos, from Salinas, California, were visiting the park in Wyoming when Rayne Beau wandered off on Jun. 4. Despite daily searches by Benny, the cat could not be found, and the couple had to leave without him.
Two months later, the couple received a notification that Beau had been found in Roseville, California, approximately 190 miles from their home. The cat was identified through his microchip and taken to the Placer Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
Leilani Fratis, CEO of the Placer SPCA, confirmed the cat&#8217;s identity and emphasized the importance of microchipping pets. Rayne Beau was initially in poor health but is now back home with his grateful owners.
Susanne Anguiano expressed her joy, saying, &#8220;We are ecstatic to have him back. I look at him every day and am so grateful.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The reunion of Rayne Beau with his owners highlights the significance of microchipping pets, a point emphasized by Leilani Fratis of the Placer SPCA. 
This incident also brings to light the diverse range of events occurring in Yellowstone National Park. For instance, in June 2022, a tourist was gored by a bison after getting too <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/22/06/27506856/a-woman-got-too-close-to-a-bison-at-yellowstone-what-do-you-think-happened-to-her">close to the animal</a>, underscoring the need for visitors to adhere to park regulations.
Additionally, the story of Rayne Beau&#8217;s journey comes at a time when <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40937559/jd-vances-unverified-rumors-about-haitian-immigrants-stir-gop-discomfort-distracting-from-real-issue">pet-related news is gaining attention</a> in the political arena. Recently, Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) and former President Donald Trump have made unverified claims about immigrants abducting and eating pets, which have been widely debunked.

Siamese Cat That Wandered Off In Yellowstone, Miraculously Travels Over 900 Miles To Be Reunited With Owners After Two Months

Apple design legend&nbsp;Sir Jony Ive has confirmed his collaboration with&nbsp;OpenAI&nbsp;CEO&nbsp;Sam Altman, on a new <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/09/34966565/iphone-of-ai-openais-sam-altman-apple-design-legend-jony-ive-and-softbanks-masayoshi-son-explore-a-n">AI hardware project</a>.
What Happened: Ive confirmed his involvement in the project during a profile <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/09/21/technology/jony-ive-apple-lovefrom.html">interview</a> with The New York Times that was published on Saturday, <a href="https://www.theverge.com/2024/9/21/24250867/jony-ive-confirms-collaboration-openai-hardware">reported</a> The Verge.
The project, which was first rumored nearly a year ago, is still shrouded in mystery with few details available. As per the report, Ive met Altman through Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky.
Funding for the venture is being provided&nbsp;by Ive and the Emerson&nbsp;Collective, a company owned by Laurene Powell Jobs. The project is expected to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38130224/sam-altman-and-former-apple-design-maestro-seek-funding-from-laurene-powell-jobs-masayoshi-son-for-t">raise $1 billion in funding&nbsp;by year-end</a>.

The team, currently consisting of 10 employees, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/12/36393129/apple-iphone-design-executive-joins-forces-with-jony-ive-and-sam-altman-for-groundbreaking-ai-projec">includes key figures</a> like Tang Tan and Evans Hankey who previously&nbsp;worked with Ive on the&nbsp;iPhone.
The project is being led by LoveFrom, Ive&#8217;s company, and is based in&nbsp;a 32,000-square-foot office building in&nbsp;San Francisco.
According to The Times, the device will leverage generative AI to handle complex requests, offering more to users than traditional software. However, specifics about the AI product and its market launch are still being determined.
Subscribe to the&nbsp;<a href="https://bztechtrends.beehiiv.com/subscribe" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Tech Trends newsletter</a>&nbsp;to get all the latest tech developments delivered to your inbox.
Why It Matters: Previously, it was reported that Altman and Ive intend to develop a more intuitive and seamless way for users to engage with AI. Their goal is to create a transformative experience akin to the impact the original iPhone had on the smartphone industry.
When Apple introduced the first iPhone in 2007, it revolutionized the market, which had been dominated by bulky phones with physical keyboards, by offering a touchscreen-only interface.
In a similar vein, current AI interactions still require manual input, whether through text prompts or voice commands.

Apple's Former Design Maestro Jony Ive Confirms He's Joined Forces With OpenAI's Sam Altman For A New AI Hardware Project

Popular dog-themed memecoin Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/shib/usd">SHIB</a>) recorded a significant jump in its burn rate in the last 24 hours, although the community remained unimpressed.
What happened: About 15.08 million SHIB tokens were kicked out of circulation, according to the official burn tracker, <a href="https://www.shibburn.com/">Shibburn</a>, marking a surge of 772% over the last 24 hours.
As is well known, coin burning is the process of purposely sending a cryptocurrency token to an unusable wallet address to remove it from circulation. This is done to generate scarcity and increase the market value of the token.
As of this writing, nearly 410.728 trillion SHIB tokens have gone up in smoke.
Despite the substantial increase in burn rate, many members of the Shiba Inu community were dissatisfied and vented their frustrations to none other than the ecosystem&#8217;s pseudonymous leader, Shytoshi Kusama.
While responding to an altogether different X post by Kusama, a user urged them to accelerate the burn rate.&nbsp;To this, Kusama replied, "Requires funds to do so. Every time you see a partnership, we get closer."
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
However, the user was still not convinced and went on to say, &#8220;What about that auto-burn mechanism ?! We wait till 4 years. It&#8217;s in YOUR hands ! Dont fool us boss.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The debate around burn rates came even as the highly anticipated liquid staking platform, K9 Finance, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/09/40913080/shiba-inu-team-says-launching-k9-finance-liquid-staking-on-shibarium-tomorrow-are-shib-bur">went live</a> on Shiba Inu's Layer-2 network, Shibarium.&nbsp;
The launch was expected to boost transaction volume on the network, in turn accelerating SHIB token burns.&nbsp;
Since its launch in August last year, the Shibarium blockchain has facilitated over 418 million transactions, according to <a href="https://www.shibariumscan.io/stats">on-chain</a> data.
Price Action: At the time of writing, SHIB was exchanging hands at $0.00001479, up 0.22% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.&nbsp;

'Dogecoin Killer' Shiba Inu's Burn Rate Shoots Up 772%, Shytoshi Kusama On Picking Up The Pace: 'Requires Funds To Do So'

Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer BYD (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDF#OTC">BYDDF</a>) and Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) rival plans to establish its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/40946478/chinas-nio-says-40-of-its-store-managers-are-ex-tesla">first South Asian assembly plant in Pakistan</a>. The move follows a rejection from India.
What Happened: The plant, expected to be operational by 2026, is a collaboration with Pakistan&#8217;s largest private electricity producer, Hub Power (Hubco). Hubco&#8217;s subsidiary, Mega Motor, will partner with BYD to set up the facility near Karachi's Port Qasim, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/bf1e6817-5313-4b6e-8e47-9e2960d30ecc">reported</a> Financial Times on Sunday. 
Hubco CEO Kamran Kamal said that the goal is for Pakistan to begin exporting vehicles from the plant. The government is encouraging BYD to target markets in Africa and South Asia, including Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
"We have big ambitions to be the leading carmaker in this country by the end of the decade," Kamal said. "For any industry in Pakistan to be competitive, they should be focused on the export market."
BYD&#8217;s expansion into Pakistan comes amid broader international growth, with new factories planned in Turkey, Hungary, Thailand, and Brazil. The company is also considering a new factory in Mexico.
BYD declined to comment further on the specifics of the Pakistan project, which is still under discussion. The company aims to sell 100,000 plug-in hybrid and fully electric cars annually in Pakistan by 2030, according to the report.

Why It Matters: The decision by BYD to establish a plant in Pakistan follows a series of global strategic moves by Chinese automakers to counteract increasing trade barriers and tariffs. 
Recently, the President Joe Biden administration imposed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/09/40886450/50-of-new-car-sales-in-china-are-electric-but-in-the-us-its-only-10-are-protectionist-policies-widen">a 100% tax on electric vehicles made in China</a>, affecting companies like BYD and Geely. This move is part of a broader effort to relocate manufacturing and boost U.S. jobs.
China has also advised its automakers to keep advanced EV technology within the country, even as they expand globally. This includes exporting knock-down kits for assembly abroad, and ensuring <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40825946/china-wants-automakers-to-safeguard-their-ev-technology-and-keep-it-within-the-country-as-companies">key parts remain produced in China</a>.
BYD&#8217;s expansion is not just limited to Pakistan. The company has been making significant strides in Europe, showcasing their vehicles at trade fairs like the Automechanika in Frankfurt, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/40818732/chinese-ev-manufacturers-byd-and-geely-storm-frankfurt-fair-as-eu-tariffs-threaten-to-crimp-thei">despite looming EU tariffs</a>.
Furthermore, the competitive <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/40946478/chinas-nio-says-40-of-its-store-managers-are-ex-tesla">landscape in China is intensifying</a>. Companies like NIO are also expanding aggressively, with a significant portion of their management coming from Tesla.

Tesla's Chinese Rival BYD Plans To Assemble EVs In Pakistan After India Said No: 'We Have Big Ambitions'

NBA legend Shaquille O&#8217;Neal has been falsely accused of ejecting Governor Tim Walz&nbsp;(D-Minn), the running mate of Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, from his restaurant.
What Happened: Earlier this month, a Facebook post from an account named &#8220;WNBA News Daily,&#8221; falsely shared a post stating that Shaq, had thrown out Walz from his restaurant in Georgia.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/22224204/Screenshot-2024-09-23-at-8.11.49%E2%80%AFAM-878x1024.png" alt="" class="wp-image-560144" /></figure>
This false story was shared by many other people on social media platforms too including one by Vernon Jones, a former state representative from Georgia.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/22224217/Screenshot-2024-09-23-at-8.10.36%E2%80%AFAM-1024x678.png" alt="" class="wp-image-560145" /></figure>
However, lo and behold, this entire incident was written by a satirical website.
See Also:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40968413/elon-musk-reacts-after-cathie-wood-labels-gavin-newsoms-threat-to-sue-tesla-ceo-over-memes-unconstit?itm_source=parsely-api" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Elon Musk Reacts After Cathie Wood Labels Gavin Newsom&#8217;s Threat To Sue Tesla CEO Over Memes &#8216;Unconstitutional&#8217;: &#8216;…But That Didn&#8217;t Stop Them&#8217;</a>
The original article was published on &#8220;Esspots,&#8221; a self-proclaimed &#8220;one-stop&nbsp;destination for satirical news and&nbsp;commentary about the United States&nbsp;of America.&#8221;
&#8220;Our team of writers and editors is dedicated to bringing you the latest and greatest in fake news and absurdity, all with a healthy dose of humor and satire,&#8221; the website states in the &#8220;About Us&#8221; section.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/22224639/Screenshot-2024-09-23-at-8.16.27%E2%80%AFAM-1024x653.png" alt="" class="wp-image-560150" /></figure>
Shaq&#8217;s restaurant chain, Big Chicken, does not have a location in Georgia, according to Big Chicken&#8217;s official website.
This fact check was first <a href="https://factcheck.afp.com/about-afp">done</a> by AFP Fact Check, a department within&nbsp;Agence France-Presse, which also noted that campaign schedules for the candidates did not mention any planned visit by Walz&nbsp;to a Big Chicken outlet.
Why It Matters: Walz has been a target&nbsp;of misinformation since joining the&nbsp;Democratic ticket. This incident serves as another example of misleading claims circulating on social media.
Earlier, a false claim that Harris was involved in a 2011 hit-and-run accident in San Francisco, which allegedly paralyzed a 13-year-old girl, circulated widely on social media platforms.
This incident also comes amid a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/09/40807445/taylor-swift-says-i-will-be-casting-my-vote-for-kamala-harris-and-tim-walz-takes-a-dig-at-j">politically charged climate</a>, with celebrities like&nbsp;Taylor Swift&nbsp;publicly endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris and Walz for the 2024 presidential race.
Meanwhile, Shaq has previously revealed that he voted for the first time at the age of 48 in 2020. The retired NBA star supported President Joe Biden in the presidential election that year, <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/560538-shaq-endorses-candidate-in-race-for-demings-house-seat/">according</a> to The Hill.

NBA Star Shaquille O'Neal Threw Tim Walz Out From His Big Chicken Restaurant And Said, 'Don't Come Back' — Fact Or Fiction

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) and Samsung Electronics Co. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SSNLF#OTC">SSNLF</a>) are discussing the construction of massive chip-making complexes in the United Arab Emirates. These projects could be valued at over $100 billion.
What Happened: Executives from TSMC have recently visited the UAE to explore the possibility of establishing a plant complex comparable to their largest facilities in Taiwan. Similarly, senior leaders from Samsung have also visited the UAE to discuss potential chip-making operations in the region, The Wall Street Journal <a href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/chip-giants-tsmc-and-samsung-discuss-building-middle-eastern-megafactories-65adc854?mod=hp_lead_pos3">reported</a> citing, people familiar with the interactions.
These discussions are in the preliminary stages and face significant technical and logistical challenges. The UAE would fund these projects, with Abu Dhabi-based sovereign development vehicle Mubadala playing a central role. Mubadala is eager to develop a domestic tech industry and increase global chip production.
The UAE&#8217;s ambitions reflect a broader global push to expand chip production to meet the demands of the AI boom. However, substantial technical and political hurdles remain, including the need for super-clean water and the availability of engineering talent.
Both TSMC and Samsung have had discussions with U.S. government officials regarding concerns about shipments of advanced AI chips to China, a trading partner of the UAE. These concerns need to be resolved before construction can begin, according to the report.
&#8220;We are always open to constructive discussion on ways to promote development of the semiconductor industry, but we remain focused on our current global expansion projects and&nbsp;have no new investment plans to disclose at this time,&#8221; a TSMC spokesperson told Benzinga in an email inquiry. 
Samsung did not immediately respond to&nbsp;<a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga</a>'s request for comment.

Why It Matters: The discussions between TSMC and Samsung come at a time when the Middle East is becoming increasingly significant in the global semiconductor landscape. 
Microsoft Corp. recently called for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40912608/microsoft-wants-clarity-on-chip-exports-to-middle-east-amid-1-4b-deal-with-uae-firm">more transparency on U.S. export controls</a> that have delayed the delivery of AI chips to the region. The company had invested $1.5 billion in G42, the largest AI company in the UAE, to use it as a gateway to markets in Africa and Asia.
Additionally, NVIDIA Corp has begun supplying its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40912608/microsoft-wants-clarity-on-chip-exports-to-middle-east-amid-1-4b-deal-with-uae-firm">advanced chips to Saudi Arabia</a>, positively influencing market sentiment in the Middle East and Asia. This move came after the U.S. reassessed its advanced semiconductor sanctions on Saudi Arabia, initially imposed in 2023 due to national security concerns.

Analyst Notes: Widely-followed cryptocurrency analyst Kingpin Crypto indicated a probable retreat to the $60,000 range if $64,000 holds as resistance.&nbsp;&nbsp;
"If price starts closing above supply, then it&#8217;s game over for the bears as I see no resistance above until 70,000," the analyst remarked.

Bitcoin, Ethereum Rise, Dogecoin Slips As Market Reacts To Harris' Crypto Mention: Analyst Believes It'll Be 'Game Over' For Bears If King Crypto Breaches $64K

Editor's Note: The headline of this story has been updated for factual accuracy.
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) has called for a new approach to Middle East policy, advocating for either a &#8220;game changing peace&#8221; or a &#8220;game changing military strategy.&#8221;
What Happened: On Thursday, Graham expressed his views on Middle East policy via X. He suggested that a significant shift in strategy is needed, either through Saudi Arabia recognizing Israel, or Israel taking military action against Iran.

Graham&#8217;s tweet comes in the wake of a series of deadly escalation between Israel and Hezbollah. Israel and Hezbollah exchanged heavy fire, with Hezbollah launching over 100 rockets into northern Israel in response to Israeli strikes on Lebanon, <a href="https://apnews.com/article/israel-lebanon-hezbollah-news-09-22-2024-fb1aa8ae061885ba86855f7fe9ec5be7">reported</a> AP on Sunday.
The conflict escalated after an Israeli airstrike in Beirut killed several people, including a senior Hezbollah commander. Hezbollah declared an "open-ended battle," while Israel launched hundreds of strikes, targeting militant sites. Both sides suffered casualties, and the situation raised concerns about the potential for a broader conflict.

The attacks, believed to be targeted at Hezbollah, an Iran-backed group, have resulted in significant casualties and damage.
Lebanon recently grappled with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40924166/hezbollah-hit-in-new-round-of-explosions-across-lebanon-casualties-climb">second wave of deadly explosions</a> targeting Hezbollah, as wireless devices like walkie-talkies detonated across the country, killing at least nine and injuring over 300. The attacks, which Hezbollah blamed on Israel, followed an earlier wave of pager explosions that killed 12 and injured nearly 2,800.
Graham&#8217;s tweet and the recent events in Lebanon highlight the urgent need for a resolution to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. Whether this will involve diplomatic recognition or military action remains to be seen.

Lindsey Graham Says Either Saudi Arabia Recogonizes Israel Or Tehran Gets Targeted: 'We Need Game Changing Peace Or Game Changing Military Strategy' (UPDATED)

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has once again criticized Novo Nordisk A/S (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVO#NYSE">NVO</a>) for the high price of its diabetes drug, Ozempic, in the United States.
What Happened: On Sunday, Sanders took to X to express his concerns about the pricing disparity of Ozempic in the U.S. compared to other countries. 
He highlighted that generic drug companies can sell Ozempic at a profit for less than $100, while Americans are paying almost $1,000 a month for the drug. Sanders attributed this price discrepancy to corporate greed and called on Novo Nordisk to reduce the price of Ozempic.
He said, &#8220;So why does your prescription cost more than a luxury handbag?&#8221;
Sanders&#8217; post featured a video in which Zain Rizvi a Senior Health Counsel at the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions stated that the rich, powerful and famous could get access to such drugs, but everyone else struggled due to the high costs of such prescriptions.
Among the issues addressed in the video was the cost of manufacturing of drugs such as Ozempic and Wegovy, which according to Rizvi&#8217;s video could be made under $5. Rizvi said that major pharmaceutical companies had told HELP committee that they can sell Ozempic to Americans for less than $100 a month.
&#8220;The problem? Novo Nordisk is taking companies to court to stop them from selling low-cost generic versions.&#8221;
He accused Novo Nordisk of following the big pharma playbook by putting &#8220;patents above public health.&#8221;

Sanders expressed confidence that Novo Nordisk could be persuaded to lower U.S. prices for its weight-loss drugs, Ozempic and Wegovy, by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/07/39736330/bernie-sanders-targets-high-prices-of-ozempic-and-wegovy-in-us">exposing price disparities</a>.

The high cost of the drug has been a point of contention, with Sanders arguing that Americans should not be charged excessively for this drug compared to people in other countries.

Bernie Sanders Questions Why Your Monthly Ozempic Prescription Costs More Than A Luxury Handbag When It Can Be Sold For Less Than $100

Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris formally referenced cryptocurrency for the first time during her election campaign, promising to safeguard the industry&#8217;s interests.
What happened: During a fundraiser at Cipriani Wall Street in Manhattan, the incumbent vice president marketed her pro-emerging technology agenda, Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-09-22/harris-vows-to-grow-ai-crypto-industries-in-pitch-to-nyc-donors?utm_source=twitter&amp;utm_campaign=socialflow-organic&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_content=crypto">reported </a>Sunday.&nbsp;
"We will partner together to invest in America's competitiveness, to invest in America's future. We will encourage innovative technologies like AI and digital assets, while protecting our consumers and investors," Harris said.
The first public mention of cryptocurrency elicited cheers from Harris campaign supporters.&nbsp;
Rep. Wiley Nickel (D-N.C.) dubbed it a "huge" policy development and a significant reset on her positions on cryptocurrencies and blockchains.

Kamala Harris Finally Mentions Crypto And That Too On Wall Street: Promises To Encourage 'Innovative Technologies' Like Digital Assets

Peter Schiff, a prominent gold advocate and vocal critic of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), has raised concerns about former President Donald Trump&#8216;s recent promise of a Mars landing. Schiff&#8217;s critique draws parallels between current economic challenges and historical spending on space exploration and social programs.
What Happened: In a post on social media platform X, Schiff <a href="https://x.com/PeterSchiff/status/1837640136600801783">stated</a>, &#8220;The reason we had so much inflation during the 1970s was the deficit spending during the 1960s on the Great Society, the War on Poverty, the Vietnam War (we lost both wars), and going to the moon. Now, with the U.S. in worse financial shape, Trump has promised a Mars landing.&#8221;
Schiff&#8217;s remarks follow Trump&#8217;s recent <a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1837592820338905214">declaration</a> that the U.S. is leading in space over Russia and China, with plans to collaborate with Elon Musk to expedite a Mars landing before the end of his term.
Meanwhile, SpaceX and Tesla Inc CEO Musk has outlined ambitious plans for Mars exploration. Musk detailed a timeline that includes launching five uncrewed Starships to Mars within two years, with potential crewed missions in four years if these initial landings prove successful.
Musk emphasized the importance of making Mars travel accessible, stating, &#8220;We want to enable anyone who wants to be a space traveler to go to Mars!&#8221; He also expressed concerns about regulatory hurdles, noting that &#8220;the Starship program is being smothered by a mountain of government bureaucracy that grows every year.&#8221;
In response to Musk&#8217;s post, Schiff commented, &#8220;I have no issues with SpaceX going to Mars. I just don&#8217;t want the government to do it.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The debate over space exploration has intensified recently, with Musk facing regulatory hurdles for SpaceX. Rep.&nbsp;Kevin Kiley&nbsp;(R-Calif.) recently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/09/40972034/elon-musk-responds-as-california-congressman-slams-bureaucratic-roadblocks-for-spacex-program-agenci">praised SpaceX&#8217;s Polaris Dawn</a> mission but criticized bureaucratic obstacles. The mission, which launched on Sept. 10, saw a private crewed spaceflight reach the farthest distance from Earth since NASA&#8217;s Apollo program.
Additionally, Musk&#8217;s recent endorsement of Trump for the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/09/40971977/elon-musk-says-biden-belied-his-2020-expectations-and-turned-out-to-be-a-radical-leftist-puppet-why">2024 presidential race</a> has added another layer to the political discourse. Musk, who previously leaned towards Joe Biden, now describes him as a &#8220;radical leftist puppet.&#8221;

What Happened: Perplexity&nbsp;is developing a &#8220;sponsored&#8221; question system to challenge Google&#8217;s auction-based ads model, as it plans to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40523773/jeff-bezos-backed-perplexity-ai-gears-up-to-integrate-ads-in-search-results-taking-a-leaf-out-of-goo">disrupt the tech giant&#8217;s dominance</a> in&nbsp;the $300 billion digital ads industry, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/ecf299f4-e0a9-468b-af06-8a94e5f0b1f4">reported</a> Financial Times.
The San Francisco-based startup has been in talks with a select group of top-tier companies, including&nbsp;Nike&nbsp;and&nbsp;Marriott, with plans to launch the ads system by year-end.
Perplexity&#8217;s new model allows brands to bid for a &#8220;sponsored&#8221; question featuring&nbsp;an AI-generated answer approved by&nbsp;the advertiser.

Jeff Bezos-Backed Perplexity AI In Discussion With Marriott And Nike As It Prepares To Challenge To Google's Dominance

&#8220;Shark Tank&#8221; fame billionaire Mark Cuban recently slammed hedge fund manager and founder of Pershing Square Capital Management Bill Ackman&#8217;s views on the candidacy of Kamala Harris.
What Happened: Cuban responded to a post by Bill Ackman, which criticized Harris&#8217;s candidacy and the circumstances surrounding her rise to the presidential nominee position. Ackman accused Harris of being complicit in what he called &#8220;the greatest lie ever told to the American people by our government,&#8221; referring to the health status of former President Joe Biden.

Ackman also expressed his disappointment with Harris&#8217;s campaign strategy, accusing her of evading direct questions about the economy, the border, or foreign policy. He suggested that her campaign was a blatant attempt to say what she needs to say to get elected.
Cuban said in <a href="https://x.com/mcuban/status/1837833875571069414?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1837833875571069414%7Ctwgr%5E8e4c71f4fa37fc5a73a1c473e778646c0b22e9c3%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Feditorial.benzinga.com%2Fwp-admin%2Fpost.php%3Fpost%3D560083action%3Dedit">response</a>: &#8216;When the competition hires a new CEO and she is kicking your a&#x2A;&#x2A; …&#8217;

Notably, Cuban, a supporter of the vice president, had previously expressed some skepticism about Harris&#8217;s economic proposals. In August, he engaged in a storm of posts about Harris&#8217;s economic plans, particularly around the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/08/40544099/mark-cuban-responds-to-kamala-harris-economic-plan-with-dozens-of-tweets-says-she-didnt-mention-">issue of price controls</a>.

Mark Cuban Issues A Stinging Retort To Bill Ackman's Attack On Kamala Harris: 'She Is Kicking Your A**…'

Former President Donald Trump has declared that he will not pursue another presidential run if he is defeated in the forthcoming November election.
What Happened: Trump, in a conversation with Sinclair Broadcast Group&#8217;s &#8220;Full Measure&#8221; on Sunday, dismissed the idea of another presidential run if he loses the upcoming election, as reported by <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/trump-run-loses-november/story?id=113910212">ABC News</a>.
When asked by host Sharyl Attkisson about another run, he replied, &#8220;I don&#8217;t see that at all. I think that, hopefully, we&#8217;re going to be successful.&#8221;
Trump, currently the oldest presidential nominee in history, is in the race following President Biden&#8217;s decision not to run for the 2024 election. Age and mental acuity have been significant concerns in this election cycle.
Amid his third presidential bid, Trump has been balancing his campaign activities with court appearances related to four criminal cases against him.

Why It Matters: The 2024 presidential election has seen a tight contest between Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris. Recent polling data, including over 20 swing-state polls conducted post the September 10 debate, suggests a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40969584/trump-vs-harris-this-candidate-has-the-edge-in-latest-swing-state-polls">slight lead</a> for Harris over Trump. 
Despite Harris trending upwards in the polls, Trump has been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/09/40949853/harris-in-trouble-new-swing-state-poll-shows-trump-gains-ground-in-key-battleground-areas-for-20">gaining ground</a> in key battleground areas. The election could hinge on the results from these swing states. 
Meanwhile, Harris has seen a surge in popularity with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40971721/voters-warm-to-kamala-harris-as-election-nears">significant uptick</a> in her favorability. This shift is noteworthy, given her previously low polling figures.

Trump Says No To Another Run If He Loses 2024 Election To Kamala Harris: 'Hopefully, We're Going To Be Successful'

House GOP leaders have put forth a three-month plan to keep the government funded, in the wake of Speaker Mike Johnson&#8217;s (R-La.) initial plan failing due to Republican opposition.
What Happened: The continuing resolution (CR) was a product of bipartisan negotiations in the House and Senate. The resolution, which maintains current funding levels until December 20, sets the stage for a holiday funding battle. The three-month timeframe is a reduction from Johnson&#8217;s initial six-month proposal and notably omits a Donald Trump-endorsed measure requiring proof of citizenship to vote, <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/house/4892931-government-funding-continuing-resolution-deal-mike-johnson/">reported</a> The Hill.
Republican leaders aim to bring the bill to a floor vote by Wednesday, with the goal of sending it to the Senate before the September 30 shutdown deadline. Johnson warned Republicans against a shutdown, stating in a &#8220;Dear Colleague&#8221; letter, &#8220;As history has taught and current polling affirms, shutting the government down less than 40 days from a fateful election would be an act of political malpractice.&#8221;
The bill also earmarks $231 million for the Secret Service, which has recently come under scrutiny following an apparent second assassination attempt against former President Trump. Johnson characterized the legislation as &#8220;a very narrow, bare-bones CR including only the extensions that are absolutely necessary.&#8221;
House Republicans will likely require Democratic support to pass the legislation, as many GOP lawmakers are anticipated to oppose the bill due to the lack of spending cuts, shorter timeframe, and exclusion of the voting bill. The bill&#8217;s passage may face obstacles as it will need to clear a procedural vote, which are traditionally party-line affairs.

Why It Matters: This development follows the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40931809/house-republicans-reject-their-own-funding-bill-as-government-shutdown-looms-mike-johnson-says-we-ha">rejection</a> of Speaker Johnson&#8217;s initial funding bill by House Republicans. The failure of the bill complicated efforts to avert a government shutdown at the end of the month.
Earlier, Senate Majority Leader, Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), had warned of potential blame for a government shutdown due to "Republican poison pills." He cautioned that the American public would hold Republicans accountable if a shutdown occurs.

House GOP Leaders Pitch 3-Month Funding Plan, Drop Trump-Backed Voter ID Proposal: Mike Johnson Says Shutting Government Down 40 Days From Election Is 'Political Malpractice'

With over 100 patents and 30 years of experience in food, pharmaceutical, and cannabis packaging, Jim Sanfilippo is transforming cannabis safety.
His groundbreaking cryogenic pasteurization technology at VIST Labs is solving one of the industry&#8217;s dirtiest secrets: microbial contamination.
Operating in a $35 billion market, Sanfilippo's innovations are crucial for cannabis brands striving to maintain product integrity while navigating complex regulatory challenges.

You can&#8217;t afford to miss out if you're serious about the business.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">From Nuts To Frozen Nuggs</h3>
Sanfilippo's expertise in packaging dates back to his family's food business, where his innovations in oxygen-free packaging for nuts led to breakthroughs in the food and pharmaceutical sectors. He has spent decades optimizing shelf life and safety. In 2017, after selling two divisions of his business to packing behemoth Sonoco, he turned his attention to cannabis.
&#8220;Cannabis is a $35 billion industry in the U.S.,&#8221; Sanfilippo said, noting that its microbial contamination issues are particularly concerning​.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Cryogenic Pasteurization: The Cannabis Industry's Dirty Little Secret</h3>
At the heart of <a href="https://vistlabs.com/">VIST Labs' breakthrough</a> is the cryogenic pasteurization process, which leverages medical-grade cryogenic vapor to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/09/40820581/want-organic-cannabis-operators-are-turning-to-this-tech-to-save-millions-and-get-certified"> sterilize cannabis products</a> while preserving their natural properties. "Cannabis is heavily contaminated with yeast, mold, and pathogens like Aspergillus," Sanfilippo explained.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="685" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/21191401/DSC06585-1024x685.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-559846" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/21191401/DSC06585-1024x685.jpg 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/21191401/DSC06585-300x201.jpg 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/21191401/DSC06585-768x513.jpg 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/21191401/DSC06585.jpg 1300w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Courtesy of VIST </figcaption></figure>
He says that traditional methods, such as gamma <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/23/02/30699860/from-food-to-cannabis-buds-x-rays-are-transforming-supply-chains-an-expert-explains-how-and-why">radiation</a> or ozone, can damage cannabinoids and terpenes, leading to degraded quality.
How does it work?
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Freeze Microbes! </h3>
VIST&#8217;s solution reduces oxygen levels to a point where oxidation and microbial growth are halted, without affecting the product's integrity​. The process begins by placing cannabis into a product cassette, holding 4-5 pounds. This cassette is loaded into the pasteurization machine &#8211; a refrigerator-sized unit &#8211; where the chamber is then prepared with cryogenic vapor.
In the next step, the vapor-induced sterilization chamber (VIST chamber) is activated. Inside this chamber, cryogenic vapor, which is created by boiling off liquid nitrogen at -320 degrees Fahrenheit, mixes with a medical-grade atmosphere.
Within 90 to 150 seconds, the vapor floods the chamber, bringing oxygen levels to extremely low concentrations (around 95% cryogenic vapor), which kills harmful microbial organisms like <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/07/39584632/mold-and-yeast-sixth-marijuana-recall-this-year-hits-colorado-cannabis-dispensaries">Aspergillus, E. coli, and Salmonella</a>.
After the sterilization, the product is quickly cools down using liquid nitrogen, preventing oxidation during the process. Finally, the cannabis is purified with a HEPA filtration system, removing any remaining airborne contaminants and ensuring stability as the product is packaged in aseptic, low-oxygen conditions​.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">A Modular Solution For Cannabis Business</h3>
VIST Labs' cryogenic pasteurization machines are designed to be modular, offering flexibility for mid-sized cultivators as well as large-scale operations. "We can run it in cassette mode at 25 pounds per hour, or upgrade to our high-output configuration, reaching up to 40 pounds per hour," Sanfilippo told Benzinga.
VIST Labs' cryogenic pasteurization system isn't just a machine, it's a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/23/08/33579692/cannabis-robots-meet-the-company-boosting-efficiency-and-margins-through-packaging-automation"> fully integrated packaging solution</a>. After the sterilization process, the product is transferred into a bulk device that packs cannabis into different bag sizes, from one to ten-pound bags, or a pouch line for smaller quantities like an eighth-ounce. &#8220;We have the cooler, a pouch bagger, and other parts working together to maintain the product in a near-zero oxygen atmosphere," Sanfilippo explained.

This scalability makes VIST's technology accessible to a wide range of businesses, whether they are aiming for compliance in medical markets or looking to protect their medical-grade level crop for export.
The company's aseptic packaging solutions meet European Pharmacopoeia standards, ensuring <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/06/39442869/2-9b-european-cannabis-market-a-strategic-blueprint-for-cross-border-transportation-logistics">compliance </a>in both domestic and international markets.
VIST's technology is also forward-thinking, preparing cannabis brands for potential federal legalization. With the increasing possibility of federal oversight, Sanfilippo notes that stricter regulations, especially around truth-in-labeling, will make compliance technologies like theirs essential for long-term success.
&#8220;With our system, we're offering crop-year protection and complete microbial control for up to a year," Sanfilippo said, noting that VIST expects to pack close to 150 million pounds of outdoor-grown cannabis in 2023 alone​.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Contamination And Mislabeling&#8230;Not A Problem</h3>
Beyond decontamination, VIST's system tackles a major issue in the cannabis industry: the degradation of THC potency over time. Inconsistent oxygen levels in packaging lead to mislabeled products, which can result in recalls and regulatory action.
&#8220;Within 45 to 50 days, THC levels can degrade by 10% or more, rendering the label claims false,&#8221; said Sanfilippo. VIST's modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) ensures stability for up to a year, keeping products compliant and safe.

Novo Nordisk, Chewy And FedEx Are Among Top 10 Large Cap Losers Last Week (Sept 15-Sept 21): Are The Others In Your Portfolio?

Many people in their 20s deal with credit card debt or student loans, sometimes thinking they'll figure it out later. But what happens when that debt piles up to nearly a million dollars? That's the reality a 29-year-old named Channing from Washington D.C. faced during an episode of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/09/40838359/dave-ramsey-says-youre-wasting-5-000-a-year-if-you-spend-13-70-a-day-on-things-you-dont-need">The Dave Ramsey Show.</a>
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>The average American couple has saved this much money for retirement —<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/money/smartasset"> How do you compare</a>?</li>
<li>Can you guess how many retire with a $5,000,000 nest egg? &#8211;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/retire-5mil-nest-egg"> How does it compare to the average?</a></li>
</ul>
Channing and her husband were grappling with nearly $1 million in debt, a number that had Ramsey quickly diving into tough-love mode. Sure, he's seen scenarios where people are in over their heads with debt, but at just 29, this was particularly alarming to Ramsey.&nbsp;
Channing, who recently married, explained, "My husband and I have probably just under a million dollars in debt and we want to know how to get debt-free without filing for bankruptcy." The breakdown included <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/08/40420920/we-have-the-highest-credit-card-debt-in-the-history-of-earth-says-grant-cardone-america-needs-to">$335,000 in student loans</a>, $136,000 in credit cards and $44,000 in personal loans. Their combined household income was about $230,000 a year.

Ramsey didn't hold back. After calculating the staggering numbers, he addressed the couple's situation bluntly. "You guys have been living at about 10x where you're going to get to live for the next three years," Ramsey said. "I'm getting ready to destroy your life as you know it."
"You've gotten used to spending like you&#8217;re in Congress," he scolded. He was clear that their lifestyle needed a complete overhaul. Ramsey emphasized that their financial habits would have to change drastically, stating, "You're not gonna see the inside of a restaurant unless it's your extra job or you're waiting on someone you work with during the day." He added, "You're gonna be living on beans and rice, rice and beans."

Ramsey went on to stress the emotional and spiritual challenges ahead. "Your friends are going to think you've lost your mind and your mother is going to think you need counseling," he warned, adding that both Channing and her husband would need to stop caring what others think if they wanted to tackle their debt successfully.
He also shared a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/03/37588475/dave-ramsey-shares-he-went-bankrupt-and-lost-everything-years-ago-while-empathizing-with-caller-">personal connection to their situation</a>, saying, "This is exactly what I did in my 20s. I bought and purchased a lifestyle that was 5x to 10x what I had. It was all because of crap inside of me that caused me to do that."

Ramsey's advice wasn't just about cutting expenses but about confronting the mindset that had led to their financial missteps. "The problem is what's going on inside you guys," Ramsey said. "You're on a suicide mission right now."
The tough conversation ended on a hopeful note, though. Ramsey assured Channing that while the journey would be difficult, it was possible. "You can do it, though," he said. "I know. I'll help you."
Channing and her husband are now facing a major lifestyle change to climb out of their nearly $1 million debt, with Dave Ramsey's guidance <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/can-you-guess-how-many-americans-successfully-retire-with-1-million-saved">pointing them toward a more financially stable future</a>. Sometimes debt happens, but at least they're taking steps to address the issue and make changes before they're left resorting to more extreme options such as bankruptcy.
