Trump's Willy Wonka Moment

Greg Guenthner:

Want to Have Dinner With the U.S. President? All You Would Need Is to Hold $420 Worth of TRUMP

The team behind the Trump memecoin said Thursday that the top 220 holders on its list, where the smallest wallet holds $420 worth of TRUMP, are eligible to win dinner with President Trump, contrary to rumors that a six-figure token stash was required.

“We want to clarify a few things people seem confused by on X and in the Media,” the team’s X account posted. “You need $300K+ to participate (You Don't); That we're unlocking into this competition (We're Not).”

TRUMP surged 70% this week, trading at around $12 as of Thursday, mainly driven by hype around the so-called “Dinner with Trump” event, according to CoinDesk’s earlier reporting.

Currently, the leaderboard's top wallet, under the pseudonym “Sun,” holds over 1.1 million TRUMP tokens, worth nearly $14 million. The 220th spot was held by “HAR,” with just 35.3 TRUMP tokens, or about $420 in dollar terms.

This Stock Just Beat Earnings – And It’s Still Cheap

On Monday, I published My Perfect Portfolio – five high-upside assets I believe are set to outperform over the next 3–5 years. One of them, Alphabet (GOOG), just reported earnings… and the stock is moving higher.

Alphabet’s Q1 results were stellar. Revenue came in at $90.23 billion vs. $89.12 billion expected. Earnings per share came in at $2.81 – blowing past the $2.01 estimate. In response, the stock popped over 4% in after-hours trading.

But here’s the kicker: even after this strong report, Alphabet might still be the most underappreciated big tech stock on the planet. This isn’t just a short-term earnings beat story. Alphabet’s long-term value story is still being wildly overlooked by the market.

Alphabet's core business is worth $2.1 trillion, its Waymo & AI business worth $600 billion, and its other Bets are worth $50 billion. That's a total estimated value of $2.75 trillion.

Alphabet’s current market cap? Just $2 trillion.

How to Succeed with Zero Qualifications

I gave a little talk at the Full Stack Business Builder Conference. Basically, a conference for entrepreneurs, VCs, technologists, aspiring entrepreneurs. It was more of a Q&A, where the moderator, Peter Satton, asked me questions, but also took questions from the audience.

A big concern for many people was, what if I have no qualifications at what I'm interested in doing? And I have to admit, I've probably never been qualified for anything I've ever done. I described how that's actually helped me achieve certain goals and ambitions of mine, even though I had no qualifications.

I also talk about the importance of obsession—let's call it rational obsession—and how to find those things you're passionate about. Among other things, I shared a quasi-religious belief I hold dear and attribute much of my success to.

I hope you have as much fun listening to this as I did talking about it. Definitely, there are some new and interesting stories, as well as experiences I wanted to share. Here it is.
