WeddingWire ties ‘The Knot’ with XO Group in a $933m marriage mega-merger
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
WeddingWire finally popped the question: The wedding marketplace got on one knee to ask for XO Group’s hand in merger with a
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
$933m
</a>
ring.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Now, competing suitors must speak before Nov. 8 or forever hold their peace. After that, XO will be off the market -- and the
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
$72B
</a>
wedding industry will have a new power couple.
</p>
<h4 style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
Meant for each other
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Operating as a public company for the past 19 years, XO has expanded its lineup beyond the “big day” to include brands for parents-to-be and events, seemingly happy on its own.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
When WeddingWire first ran across The Knot’s high-value content, it recognized their natural compatibility (
<em>
they just have
</em>
so
<em>
much in common!
</em>
) and knew immediately that XO Group, The Knot’s parent company, was the one.
</p>
<h4 style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
Better together
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
WeddingWire has produced wedding planning tools since 2007, offering services to find venues, photographers, and DJs. Now it hopes to use The Knot’s signature brand to create a one-stop matrimonial mecca.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Like any healthy couple, the two companies plan to maintain their independence as equal partners.
<em>
The Wall Street Journal
</em>
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
reports
</a>
that both brands will continue to offer their separate products, with CEO Tim Chi of WeddingWare and CEO Mike Steib of XO serving as co-CEOs.
</p>
<h4 style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
Weddings are big business...
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
But like any big business, the industry is crowded: Competitor Zola has raised more than
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
$140m
</a>
and claims to be the fastest-growing wedding company in the country.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
For now, the deal’s announcement led to a
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
26%
</a>
jump in XO shares, which are now up 50% on the year. Once the deal is complete, the combined company will have
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
1.7k
</a>
employees across 15 countries.

<strong>
The world’s crypto-kingpin posted pre-IPO numbers, and it looks good under the hood
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
As it prepares for a Hong Kong IPO, crypto-mining company Bitmain revealed that its revenue
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
grew
</a>
from $278m in 2016 to $2.5B last year to $2.8B in just
<em>
the first half
</em>
of 2018.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
The world’s largest crypto-mining company has been profitable since 2016, avoiding the volatility of cryptocurrency exchanges by capitalizing on the tools of the new trade and then diversifying beyond them.
</p>
<h4 style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
In the gold rush, smart entrepreneurs sold shovels...
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Now, Bitmain sells the tools that enable the crypto rush: mining equipment. Bitmain capitalized on the enormous growth of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies -- which increased in value
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
15x
</a>
last year -- without becoming totally reliant upon it.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
While crypto exchange markets suffered $600B in losses since January, Bitmain increased revenue 10x and profit 9x from its previous year. So, how did crypto’s ’Main biz beat the market?
</p>
<h4 style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
Bitmain didn’t put all its Bits in one Main
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
After carving out
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
85%
</a>
market share as a virtual Bitcoin-mining monopoly (completely contradicting crypto’s central tenet of decentralization), Bitmain reinvested its massive profits in new research projects.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Bitmain now offers blockchain services and AI chips to power cloud systems and object-recognition programs -- and ⅓ of the company’s
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
2.6k
</a>
work in R&D to develop new technology.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
So for better or for worse, Bitmain now has enormous control over the supposedly decentralized crypto market as it prepares for its IPO: After filing its prospectus, the value of the top 20 cryptocurrencies rose
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
20%
</a>
.

Get pumped: Digital health platform raises $27m for its new breast milk delivery service
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Maven Clinic received
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
$27m
</a>
in funding to launch a nationwide breast milk delivery service (titled Maven Milk), designed for new, working moms.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Why? Because according to the company, more than 40% of American women who give birth leave the workforce -- some due to the lack of support from employers and healthcare providers.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Maven’s looking to change all that. Aside from its new avenue, the digital health platform was used in
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
166 countries
</a>
last year to provide moms help with fertility and adoption, as well as support for postpartum depression, doctor referrals, and video appointments with healthcare professionals.

</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
The company was
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
founded
</a>
by Kate Ryder, a former journalist for the
<em>
New Yorker
</em>
who decided to quit it all and become a Venture Capitalist, then, got bored and created a premier women’s digital health platform in 2014
<em>
.
</em>
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Cut to today, Maven Clinic is the world’s largest digital women’s and family provider network.

Holy mobile-payments: Stripe is now worth $20B
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Payment technology company Stripe
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
raised $245m
</a>
in new funding, giving the company a $20B valuation -- up from $9B when it was evaluated 2 years ago.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
According to the company’s co-founder John Collison, Stripe will use the “primary capital” to finance international expansion and enable Stripe to handle more large accounts.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Speak of the devil: The San Francisco-based company
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
announced
</a>
a new engineering hub in Singapore yesterday, and recently brought in new client-giants like Uber, Didi Chuxing, and Spotify.
</p>
<h4 style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
So, we’d assume there’s an IPO coming in the near future…
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
<em>
But, you know what happens when you assume.
</em>
Collison
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
has recently said
</a>
Stripe has “no plans to go public.”
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Still, the $20B figure places Stripe among a very small group of the world’s most valuable private startups (Airbnb, Palantir, and Uber) and widely credited (among a few others) for revolutionizing how businesses collect transactions.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Though they remain generally out of sight to consumers, reports show that around 84% of American adults shopping online bought something via Stripe in the last year.
</p>
<h4 style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
They still have a long way to go to catch Square
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
With a gargantuan market value of almost
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
$40B
</a>
, Square is essentially what Uber is to Lyft. Bigger in most ways, but not necessarily better.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
And to help compete, Stripe, who is traditionally more of a software nerd, rolled out a point-of-sale device (similar to Square’s) so its online customers can take in-person payments from consumers.

Partners in wine: bored MIT grads create wine matchmaking algorithm
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
After picking another bottle of bad wine, MIT grads Richard Yau and Joe Laurendi realized what the wine world was missing:
<em>
guidance.
</em>
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
The duo knew nothing about their wine preferences -- and learning through trial and error was cutting into their wallets. So, the two MIT grads did as any former mathlete would do: they created a wine matching algorithm and raised $5m to share it with the world.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Today, that algorithm powers
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
Bright Cellars
</a>

Instead of asking snobby wine questions about “tannins” and “legs,” the
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
Bright Cellars quiz
</a>
asks, “What type of chocolate do you like?” or “How do you take your coffee?”
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
They ask questions anyone with a tongue can answer -- plus, it’s totally free to see your matches.
