Although we are slowing down and gearing up for a great summer, June was eventful to say the least.
Notably, the outcome of Roe vs Wade is reverberating through the tech community - how will start-ups and Big Tech react when it comes to protecting their consumer data? (Some good reads on the topic are linked below...)
“Crypto winter” - the crypto market is dropping like snow and major cryptocurrency exchanges like Coinbase and Gemini revealed hiring freezes and redundancies.
Although things look bleak, the view from crypto investors is that now is the time to invest in stand-out companies with the right due diligence being carried out.
This isn't the first crypto crash (let's think back to 2018)… So here’s to the market picking up and the end of 'winter'.
