The robot AI data platform Mecka AI has completed a $60 million financing round, led by Framework Ventures

According to Fortune, the startup Mecka AI, which focuses on training data for robotic AI, announced the completion of a total financing of $60,000,000, including a $25,000,000 Series A round completed last November and a subsequent $35,000,000 follow-on financing. Both rounds were led by Framework Ventures, with participation from institutions such as Menlo Ventures, SV Angel, and Kindred Ventures.Mecka AI primarily collects human motion data through body sensors, iPhones, and custom hardware, including physical behavior data such as gestures and gait, to train robotic AI models.The company's founder and CEO, Josh Gao, stated that its core philosophy is to train robots using human behavior data rather than traditional teleoperation data, thereby enhancing the general capabilities of robots in the real world.It was introduced that Mecka AI was established in 2025 and currently has about 40 employees. The company claims that based on signed contracts, its annual recurring revenue (ARR Run Rate) is expected to reach $100,000,000, but it has not disclosed a specific client list.Vance Spencer, co-founder of Framework Ventures, stated that Mecka AI is one of the fastest-growing companies in the institution's portfolio.In the future, Mecka AI plans not only to provide training data but also to directly participate in the training and deployment of robotic models, promoting the commercialization of robots in real-world scenarios.

The New York court has accepted the case of "Claiming dormant addresses of Satoshi Nakamoto and others for Bitcoin," with a total value of 274 billion dollars

Galaxy stated that in March this year, the New York State Supreme Court quietly accepted a lawsuit aimed at confirming the ownership of over 3.7 million bitcoins (approximately $274 billion) associated with 39,069 bitcoin addresses, including addresses belonging to bitcoin founder Satoshi Nakamoto (a total of 21,744 addresses holding 1.09 million bitcoins, valued at $83.7 billion at current prices).The plaintiffs are Noah Doe (a pseudonym) and two unnamed limited liability companies from Wyoming. Noah Doe requests the New York State Supreme Court to declare their ownership of these dormant addresses through a declaratory judgment action under New York State's lost property law (Section 7-B of the Personal Property Law) as per the New York Civil Practice Law and Rules Section 3001.In short, they are attempting to have the New York court rule that the bitcoins of bitcoin founder Satoshi Nakamoto (and many other lost address bitcoins) belong to lost property, and that they have the right to legally own them because they "found" these cryptocurrencies. From June 30 to July 10, 2025, they sent "abandonment notices" via OP_RETURN to each found address.However, even if they win completely, they will ultimately only receive a court statement; they will not obtain any private keys and will not be able to transfer any bitcoins from these addresses. But Galaxy indicates that the real value of the New York ruling lies in its potential to serve as a "title defect," allowing plaintiff Noah Doe to raise objections with exchanges or custodians if these bitcoins appear in any regulated venue.
