Investors pour $20m+ into virtual influencers like Lil Miquela
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Lil Miquela is a star by today’s standards: She has roughly 1.5m followers on IG and, thanks to new financing, the company that owns her is about to be worth at least $125m.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Brud, the company that created Lil Miquela, is currently closing a round between
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ed4d1f; color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
$20m and $30m
</a>
to continue developing her and some of its other flagship stars (Miquela may have even
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ed4d1f; color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
hinted
</a>
about the news herself).
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
To clear up any confusion, Lil Miquela is what they call in the biz, an “avastar” -- meaning she’s not real, but her fans certainly are, and investors are smellin’ the potential.
</p>
<h4 style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
Synthetic celebs hit the mainstream
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Per
<em>
TechCrunch,
</em>
characters like the Damon Albarn assembled supergroup, the Gorillaz, and the vocal-synthesizer-turned-cyber-celeb
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ed4d1f; color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
Hatsune Miku
</a>
were some of the original avastars of our time.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Of course, that was far before AI became a d*mn-near living, breathing organism, and before entertainment value was measured by “likes” and “subscribes.”
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Now the attention from venture firms is showing creators just how important virtual characters could actually become.
</p>
<h4 style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
Humans come and go, but IP lives forever
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
The potential of avastardom goes far beyond its characters: Betaworks, a NY-based investment firm that invested in
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ed4d1f; color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
SuperPlastic
</a>
, a designer toy company turned digital agency for synthetic celebrities, is interested in exploring the role that AI and new technology platforms could play in rethinking entertainment and social media as a whole.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Companies are learning that human influencers have an expiration date to their potential, where virtual IP can be extended -- world’s will be built, interactive games will be created, and trends influenced by characters like Lil Miquela will become a way of life.
</p>
<h4 style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">

In the distant future, virtual influencers could be the social sheriff to run human influencers out of town. But when one trash lid closes a new one’s bound to open… i.e. a Logan Paul avastar.

PG&E shares fell 50% yesterday after the utility announced it will file for bankruptcy
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Shares of PG&E, the largest utility company in California, fell
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ed4d1f; color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
50%
</a>
+ yesterday after PG&E announced it will file for bankruptcy protection.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Just months ago, PG&E was a
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ed4d1f; color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
hot investment
</a>
. But regulators are holding PG&E responsible for several deadly California fires, and now it's struggling to pay the billion-dollar bills.
</p>
<h4 style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
It costs a lot to upgrade old equipment…
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
But, as it turns out, it costs
<em>
even more
</em>
to rebuild scorched cities. The past 10 years have been the
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ed4d1f; color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
driest
</a>
in California history, making PG&E’s old, spark-prone wires more dangerous than ever.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
While PG&E has spent millions trying to upgrade its equipment, it hasn’t been able to keep up: PG&E equipment was responsible for 1,550 fires between 2014 and 2017.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Since California state law makes utilities responsible for fires started by their equipment, the increase in damaging wildfires has resulted in an increase in financial fires at PG&E.
</p>
<h4 style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
Fires spread
</strong>
<em>
<strong>
fast
</strong>
</em>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
According to analysts, PG&E’s liabilities could exceed $30B, while the company’s entire market value is just $9.12B.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
PG&E’s disaster happened quickly: Several hedge funds invested money in the utility just a few months ago in the 3rd quarter of 2018.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
But since October, the company’s market value fell from $25.32B to $9.12B today. Today, a 2015 investment in the utility (which would have been seen as a very safe bet at the time) delivers a -80% return.

PayPal has stayed on top of the payment pile for 2 decades by paying big bucks for users
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
PayPal, the granddaddy of the digital payments industry, has still got it: The company’s
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ed4d1f; color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
stock is up
</a>
more than 100% since the start of 2017, and it still has a
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ed4d1f; color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
61%
</a>
market share.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
PayPal may be a product of the first dotcom boom, but it’s
<em>
still
</em>
on top of the digital payments world, thanks to its acquisition strategy.
</p>
<h4 style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
The mafia moved on, but PayPal didn’t go anywhere
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
PayPal’s early members famously left to build other mega-businesses: Elon Musk (Tesla, SpaceX), Peter Thiel (Palantir, Founder’s Fund), Reid Hoffman (LinkedIn), Jawed Karim (YouTube), and Jeremy Stoppelman (Yelp) were all part of the PayPal mafia.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
But, 21-year-old PayPal remained successful: Today, PayPal’s $100B market cap is more than 100x when it went public in 2002, and its market share is roughly
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ed4d1f; color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
3x
</a>
larger than any competitor.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Much of PayPal’s success rests on a few strategic acquisitions: PayPal acquired Venmo (as a part of Braintree) in 2013 and European payment giant iZettle in 2018, giving its user base a big boost.
</p>
<h4 style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
PayPal will pay for users
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Despite its popularity, Venmo itself still loses hundreds of millions of dollars — but its users are invaluable.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
It took PayPal 12 years to grow from 50m to 200m users. After buying Venmo, its new users grew from 200m to 250m in 18 months.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Now, PayPal plans to keep buying users: The company has a $10.5B pile of cash on hand for when it finds the next Venmo.

<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Vista Equity Partners will buy a majority stake in Quick Base Inc., a software company that provides people with no coding experience the tools to build internal software platforms.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Vista will acquire the stake from Welsh Carson Anderson & Stowe for over

Slow and steady for Quick Base
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Founded in 1999, Quick Base was one of the 3 business units sold by software maker Intuit
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ed4d1f; color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
back in 2016
</a>
, along with software units Demandforce and Quicken.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
According to the
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ed4d1f; color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
<em>
WSJ
</em>
</a>
, the
<em>
total
</em>
sale was likely worth about $500m at the time (meaning Quick Base alone was worth even less).
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
But since then, coding for the layman has taken off: Quick Base has upped its annual revenue by at least 20% to more than $125m, and bagged high-profile customers like Southwest Airlines, Google, and Sprint.

The rise of coding for dummies
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Over the last few years, DIY-coding platforms like Google’s App Maker program and Microsoft’s PowerApps have gained popularity.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Now, Quick Base joins its competitor
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ed4d1f; color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
Airtable
</a>
in the unicorn coding software club. (Like Quick Base, Airtable saw its revenue increase 400% in 2018 with a total of 80k companies now using the company’s software.)
