Roku's Options: A Look at What the Big Money is Thinking

Palantir Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) doesn&#8217;t go about selling its software products in conventional ways. After refusing to hire a sales team for years, the company is now using rock concert-like boot camps to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/04/38427992/whats-going-on-with-palantir-technologies-today">bring new customers on board</a>.
Selling AI Software: Palantir has been one of the biggest beneficiaries of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/ai">AI</a> boom. The data firm&#8217;s software allows companies and governments to organize and analyze large amounts of data to improve efficiency in decision-making processes. 
CEO Alex Karp has long refused to hire salespeople at Palantir due to the belief that the company&#8217;s software is so good, it sells itself. He even once said the only way Palantir would hire a sales team is if he were &#8220;hit by a bus.&#8221;
A new report from <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-04-23/inside-palantir-s-ai-sales-secret-weapon-software-boot-camp?srnd=indus&amp;embedded-checkout=true">Bloomberg</a> this week suggests that Karp has at least been hit with a fresh perspective on sales. Although the company still refuses to build a sales team to help capture booming demand, Palantir has adopted a new approach that involves software boot camps. 
Software Boot Camps: The name &#8220;software boot camp&#8221; doesn&#8217;t really tell the whole story. These so-called boot camps can last anywhere from one to five days and are described as being one part hackathon, one part conference and one part party. 
The events feature demonstrations from engineers, work sessions for those attending and presentations from current customers on how they use <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/24/03/37519215/palantirs-aipcon-unveils-over-20-new-customers-partners-including-openai">Palantir&#8217;s AI tools</a> to improve efficiency. 
On a recent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/02/36941798/palantir-q4-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-in-line-continued-gaap-profitability-ahead-and-more">conference call</a>, Karp told investors and analysts that the company was making a push to sell its Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP) product through these boot camps. 
&#8220;We can&#8217;t do enough of them &#8230; We&#8217;re limiting the number of people who can come. It&#8217;s like a rock concert &#8230; If you know somebody, we can get you backstage,&#8221; Karp said at the time. 
Karp noted that Palantir held a total of about 500 boot camps in 2023, mostly in the second half of the year. The company is targeting five boot camps per day on average throughout 2024. 
Palantir has attributed much of its recent U.S. commercial sales growth to the boot camp initiative. Analysts expect Palantir&#8217;s commercial revenue to exceed its total government revenue <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/02/36958716/palantir-rallies-off-ai-driven-q4-earnings-bull-analyst-sees-off-the-charts-commerc">for the first time next year</a>.

PLTR Price Action: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/PLTR">Palantir shares</a> are up approximately 24% since the start of the year. The stock was down 0.51% trading at $21.47 Thursday at publication, per <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Deutsche Bank Maintains Hold on Boston Scientific, Raises Price Target to $73

Microsoft Corp&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) faces a significant security challenge, Tom Warren from the Verge&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.theverge.com/2024/4/25/24139914/microsoft-cyber-security-incidents-trust-report" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>. In recent years, a series of high-profile security breaches has shaken Microsoft.
A U.S. Cyber Safety Review Board report revealed that Microsoft&#8217;s security culture needs an overhaul.&nbsp;
Warren writes that concerns are growing within the company that these attacks could significantly damage trust in Microsoft.
Microsoft&#8217;s engineering and security teams have been actively addressing these threats in response to ongoing attacks by Nobelium or Midnight Blizzard—the same Russian state-sponsored hackers behind the&nbsp;SolarWinds Corp&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SWI#NYSE">SWI</a>) incident.
This group recently spied on senior Microsoft leadership&#8217;s email accounts and&nbsp;even&nbsp;stole source code.
These repeated attacks have alarmed many within Microsoft, prompting efforts to bolster the company&#8217;s defenses and prevent further breaches.&nbsp;
Historically, Microsoft has also&nbsp;been targeted&nbsp;by hackers from the Chinese government.&nbsp;
The U.S. Cyber Safety Review Board described last year&#8217;s U.S. government email attack as a &#8220;cascade of security failures&#8221; that was preventable.&nbsp;
At a recent internal leadership conference, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella and President Brad Smith emphasized prioritizing security.
With AI and security as its primary focus, Microsoft faces new security risks as it rapidly deploys AI technologies and more customers move to the cloud.
Microsoft reporter Mary Jo Foley recently urged Microsoft to stop marketing security as a premium service, the Verge reports.
Similarly, former senior White House cyber policy director A.J. Grotto highlighted past issues where Microsoft upsold logging capabilities during the SolarWinds breach, making it difficult for agencies to assess their exposure.

Analysts also flagged Microsoft&#8217;s potential AI-driven revenue and free cash flow acceleration, noting the growing importance of AI in Microsoft&#8217;s strategy and&nbsp;naming Microsoft as a top software pick.
Microsoft stock gained 43% in the last 12 months.

AI Is Going Well For Microsoft, But Cybersecurity Is Not

The allure and impact of meme coins within the cryptocurrency space is sparking a heated debate <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/04/38428816/join-anthony-scaramucci-in-nyc-for-the-future-of-finances-digital-era">among industry leaders</a>. 
What Happened: Eddy Lazzarin, CTO of a16zcrypto, a prominent venture capital firm focused on crypto, on Thursday took to X (formerly Twitter) to <a href="https://x.com/eddylazzarin/status/1783179299085856934">express</a> his concerns about the long-term effects of meme coins.
According to Lazzarin, memecoins potentially distort the public&#8217;s understanding of cryptocurrency&#8217;s potential. 
&#8220;Meme coins alter how the public, regulators, and entrepreneurs see crypto. At best, it looks like a risky casino. Or a series of false promises masking a casino,&#8221; Lazzarin tweeted. 
He emphasized that this perception could adversely impact adoption, regulatory actions, and the behavior of developers within the space.
The debate extended to the actual appeal of meme coins, with Mike Dudas, the Founder &amp; General Partner at 6th Man Ventures <a href="https://x.com/mdudas/status/1783170465269199215">pointing</a> out their popularity across multiple blockchain platforms like Base, Blast, and Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>), highlighting their &#8220;extremely broad adoption and usage.&#8221; 
Lazzarin responded by questioning the value of attracting users primarily interested in speculative aspects, remarking, 
&#8220;Interesting to which users? Serving a casino to a relatively small population just isn&#8217;t exciting. It&#8217;s probably even net negative if you consider the externalities.&#8221;
Lazzarin also pointed out that while meme coins are part of the activities on blockchain networks, they do not necessarily preclude engagement in other blockchain applications such as decentralized finance (DeFi), gaming, or social platforms. 
&#8220;It&#8217;s simply one thing people do on chain,&#8221; he noted.

Furthering the discussion, Jesse Walden, Co-Founder and General Partner at Variant Fund, <a href="https://x.com/jessewldn/status/1783225310726504865">introduced</a> a comparative perspective on the damage caused by deceptive projects versus the straightforward, albeit volatile, nature of meme coins. 
Walden suggested, &#8220;I think it's highly debatable which is doing more damage: a) projects promising groundbreaking tech to mask token liquidity schemes b) meme coins that do not promise anything but volatility and entertainment.&#8221;
Lazzarin countered by highlighting the lack of substantive defense for deceptive tech projects compared to the defense often mounted for memecoins, even as the industry faces challenges on multiple fronts. He stated, &#8220;Nobody is writing essays defending the concept of ‘fake tech to mask token liquidity schemes'. But people are defending memecoins while the industry is struggling on multiple fronts.&#8221;
What&#8217;s Next: These exchanges underline a critical dialogue within the crypto community as it navigates its path towards maturity and wider acceptance. 
This ongoing debate is particularly relevant in the context of upcoming industry events like Benzinga&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/events/digital-assets/agenda/">Future of Digital Assets</a> on Nov. 19, where discussions will likely explore the balance between innovation, entertainment, and investor protection in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/04/38427873/blackrocks-spot-bitcoin-etf-sees-zero-inflows-as-net-outflows-tally-130m-on-wednesday">evolving digital asset landscape.</a>
