Bitcoin life insurer Meanwhile raises $82M

The post Bitcoin life insurer Meanwhile raises $82M appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin life insurance company Meanwhile raised $82 million in a new funding round led by Bain Capital Crypto and Haun Ventures. The company, regulated by the Bermuda Monetary Authority, plans to use the funds to meet “surging demand” for Bitcoin-denominated retirement and “inflation-proof” savings products, according to a Tuesday announcement. Meanwhile offers Bitcoin-based life insurance, annuities, savings products and insurance bonds for individuals and institutions, with all premiums, policy values and claims managed in Bitcoin (BTC).  Apollo, Stillmark and Northwestern Mutual Future Ventures also contributed to the funding round. The new funding brings Meanwhile’s total capital raised in 2025 to $122 million, adding to its $40 million Series A from April led by Framework Ventures and Fulgur Ventures. Zac Townsend, CEO of Meanwhile, told Cointelegraph that having investors from both crypto and traditional finance showed “both domains see Bitcoin as a foundational asset for savings, protection, and intergenerational wealth transfer.” He added that as regulation improves, he expects “insurers and reinsurers to treat Bitcoin as a complement to sovereign fixed income.” Source: Zac Townsend Investors backing Meanwhile say a Bitcoin-based economy will create growing demand for new BTC-denominated financial products. “Just as the US economy was built on insurance, pensions, and mortgages, the Bitcoin economy will require its own long-duration financial products,” said Chris Ahn, a partner at Haun Ventures.

Elon Musk’s xAI raises $20 billion with $2 billion equity stake from Nvidia

Elon Musk’s xAI raises $20 billion with $2 billion equity stake from Nvidia

The post Elon Musk’s xAI raises $20 billion with $2 billion equity stake from Nvidia appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence startup xAI has raised $20 billion in fresh financing, according to Bloomberg, with $2 billion of that amount coming directly from Nvidia as part of the equity package. The new round is larger than originally expected and is tied to xAI’s plan to use Nvidia processors for Colossus 2, its biggest data center located in Memphis. The total package mixes equity and debt. Reports show that about $7.5 billion is equity while as much as $12.5 billion comes in debt. The deal is structured through a special purpose vehicle that buys Nvidia GPUs and rents them back to xAI for five years, giving financiers a path to recover their money without exposing themselves to company-level risk. Nvidia has not commented on the transaction, while xAI also declined to respond. Elon himself wrote on X in September that the company was “not raising any capital right now,” though this financing proves otherwise. Nvidia invests while Wall Street funds the debt Nvidia is investing equity as a strategy to push its chips deeper into customer systems. The company’s Chief Financial Officer Colette Kress told a Goldman Sachs conference in September that while Nvidia will continue to repurchase shares and pursue strategic deals, its main use of cash is to help other companies adopt AI more quickly. Other financiers are backing the debt. Apollo Global Management is participating alongside Diameter Capital Partners. Valor Capital is leading the equity portion, with Apollo also investing. None of these firms gave public comment when contacted. The raise is more than double the earlier $10 billion figure reported earlier this year, showing the scale of demand for hardware and financing in the AI race. The debt itself is unusual because it is backed by Nvidia’s processors instead of the company. By renting chips…

Here’s How Much They’ll Cost

Here’s How Much They’ll Cost

The post Here’s How Much They’ll Cost appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline Tesla on Tuesday unveiled plans to sell cheaper alternatives of its Model Y and Model 3 cars, its first product release in years, as Elon Musk’s automaker created more affordable options for its bestselling vehicles in an apparent move to offset the recent loss of tax incentives to buy electric vehicles. Elon Musk has said his automaker would sell an affordable Model Y, as “people don’t have enough money in the bank account to buy it” despite high demand. Tesla Key Facts Tesla priced its Model Y Standard and Model 3 Standard vehicles at $37,990 and $34,990, below the “Premium” alternatives at $44,490 and $41,990, respectively. Tesla’s last product unveiling came in 2019 when Musk promoted the Cybertruck, though deliveries for the vehicle were delayed until November 2023 following a series of production issues and battery supply restrictions. The Model Y accounted for 7.4% of the global electric vehicle market through Q1 2025 and remained the bestselling EV worldwide ahead of the Model 3 and BYD’s Seagull, according to Autovista Group, an automotive data firm. Tesla will use less premium materials to produce the new vehicles to offset the loss of a $7,500 federal tax credit for Americans purchasing electric vehicles, which expired last week, Bloomberg reported, citing people familiar with the matter. Production of a more affordable model began in June, Tesla executives told investors in July, though they did not provide specifics—Musk, however, suggested it would be the Model Y: “The desire to buy the car is very high, it’s just people don’t have enough money in their bank account to buy it.” Big Number 497,099. That’s how many vehicles Tesla delivered through its third quarter, a record quarterly total. Of these, about 97% were Model 3 and Model Y vehicles. Key Background Rumors have swirled in…

Tesla launches a $39,990 Model Y and a $37,000 Model 3 to offset fading demand

Tesla launches a $39,990 Model Y and a $37,000 Model 3 to offset fading demand

The post Tesla launches a $39,990 Model Y and a $37,000 Model 3 to offset fading demand appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. After years of hype, teasers, and fan speculation, Tesla finally dropped its long-awaited $39,990 Model Y today, Tuesday. The cheaper version of the company’s best-selling SUV quietly showed up on the automaker’s website this morning, delivering what Tesla-watchers have been expecting for months: a no-frills Model Y designed to claw back slipping demand in a brutal EV market that’s getting tighter by the day. The base Model Y skips fancy extras like a glass roof, light bars, and premium seating, but still delivers a 321-mile range on a full charge. That’s only 36 miles less than the Long Range version. The price undercuts the previous entry-level Model Y by about $5,000, giving buyers a cheaper way into the Tesla ecosystem just as the $7,500 federal tax credit disappears, thanks to President Donald Trump’s new spending bill. The new standard Model 3 also dropped, now listed at $37,000. The announcement, as Cryptopolitan reported, follows days of buildup. Over the weekend, Elon Musk’s company dropped a mysterious teaser clip on social media showing a spinning, logo-branded part. Nobody knew if it was a fan, a turbine, or a new wheel design, but the clip ended with the numbers “10/7.” On Sunday, Tesla followed that with another clip showing headlights glowing in the dark. Shares rose 5% Monday as excitement grew, with many investors hoping for big updates on the Roadster or Cybercab. But after today’s reveal, Tesla stock slid by 3%, closing Tuesday 4.45% lower overall. Tesla cuts prices as it struggles to hold attention Elon’s company has been bleeding momentum all year. No new mass-market model has come out since the Cybertruck launched in late 2023, and that vehicle never really caught fire. From the infamous 2019 unveiling, where Elon smashed the truck’s window during a live demo, to eight voluntary…
