               Hello and welcome to Daily Crunch for November 22, 2021! I am happy to report that this is a holiday week in the United States, so expect the news to be busy until Wednesday at around midday, at which point the Americans in your life are going to switch off the internet and start eating.

                Today news broke that Royal, a startup that is bringing NFTs, fractional ownership and music rights together in a single package, announced a $55 million raise. This after it raised some $16 million the other month. That’s a lot of money! A good question at this juncture is this:

                <strong>
                </strong>
                In the wake of a huge public debut, Indian fintech giant Paytm struggled to hold onto its market value. It fell during its first day of trading, and it fell again today after a market break in its home country last Friday. Our read, after going back through its numbers, is that the company’s IPO was simply mispriced.

That is a great many duckets, leading myself to wonder why the deal came together. Per our own Ron Miller, the gist is that the retail company wants to protect itself, so it bought a company to help with the work.

                Software is great because you can sell it over the internet, which means you can build a global customer base. But, when you do, you also engender a varied tax bill. Enter Fonoa, which wants to help customers untie that particular Gordian knot.

                Most startups don’t have binary outcomes. Things tend to fall along a shading line, grayer or not depending on the circumstance. Rocket tests are not like that. They either make it to orbit or not, as was the case with Astra. After one of its rockets did not, the next one did. Now the company is marching forward with more work.
