🦄🦄 Telegram is raising $1.7 billion in funding - and they're not even done!
#Telegram raised $850 million from 94 investors in March in addition to $850 million it gained in February. That's almost two whole unicorns in the largest #ICO (Initial Coin Offering) to date.
The company, founded by self-exiled Russian Pavel Durov, plans to use the ICO proceeds to develop the Telegram Open Network #blockchain, which includes the cryptocurrency #Gram.
Interest in the Telegram ICO has recently helped the company surpass the threshold of 200 million monthly active users, “with over 700,000 new users signing up each day.”

🎧 Spotify's first day on NYSE
Eschewing the typical #IPO song and dance in favour of a direct listing, music streamer #Spotify made its debut on the New York Stock Exchange (#NYSE) yesterday in one of the most anticipated tech-related offerings since Snap’s IPO in March of last year.
If first impressions count for anything, Spotify’s first day of public trading was mixed. Shares closed down about 10% from their opening price, but above the reference price first set by the NYSE.
Here’s how things shook out:
- NYSE set a reference price of $132
- Shares made their debut with an opening price of $165.90
- Shares peaked at $169 shortly after trading began
- Shares closed at $149.01
🎁 BONUS: Here's How $1 Flows From Spotify to Recording Artists
Each song streamed on Spotify is worth a fraction of a cent, and the ultimate payday for artists is as dependent on their record deal as on their stream count. This summary, based on figures from 2016, examines the path of a hypothetical dollar as it makes its way to three types of artists.

💻 DELL COMPUTERS
Before it became fashionable to start a tech company in your dorm room, Michael Dell did exactly that. In 1983, he began selling upgrade kits for PC's out of his dorm at UT Austin. A few months later he gave up his plan of being Pre-Med, and dropped out of school to focus on the PC business. At age of 27, he became the youngest CEO to head a Fortune 500 company.
💸 See #DELL's first financial statement, from 1984. $900k quarterly revenue, 15% operating margin: https://t.me/PerspectiveIX/1170
Today, Dell has sold more than 650 million computers. PLUS for our postscript "How You Built That," how Hannah England turned a common parenting problem into Wash. It. Later. — a water-tight bag for soaking soiled baby clothes before they stain.
