Peter Thiel’s secretive 'Antichrist' lecture series in Rome has drawn a sharp rebuke from the Vatican, as the billionaire labels Pope Leo XIV a 'woke American Pope.' The move marks a radical escalation in Thiel’s post-liberal ideological project, further distancing his Silicon Valley circle from traditional institutional religious leadership.
Founders Fund has led a pre-emptive $80 million investment in Nominal, a manufacturing-focused startup that has officially reached unicorn status. The deal was spearheaded by partner Trae Stephens after he observed the company's software becoming a critical standard across his hardware portfolio, including SpaceX and Anduril.
Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund has liquidated its entire 7.5% stake in ETHZilla, a firm formerly focused on Ethereum treasuries. The exit comes as ETHZilla pivots toward tokenizing aviation assets, signaling a broader institutional reassessment of pure-play crypto treasury models.
