a16z's AI infrastructure team has successfully backed two acquisitions within five days: Cursor has been acquired by SpaceX, and Stripe announced the acquisition of OpenRouter. According to The Information, the total value of a16z's holdings corresponding to these two investments has exceeded $8 billion.In 2024, a16z participated in Cursor's $60 million Series A round, when the company's valuation was only $400 million. Now, SpaceX is acquiring Cursor for $60 billion. Bloomberg previously reported that a16z is Cursor's largest external shareholder, holding about 10%, which is valued at approximately $6 billion based on the acquisition price.In 2024, a16z established its first $1.25 billion infrastructure-focused fund. The Information states that the two transactions involving Cursor and OpenRouter are enough for the related fund to return all principal to LPs and also provide additional profits.

Martin Casado, head of AI infrastructure, noted that a few years ago, only about 5% of the startup projects he encountered were in hardware, and now that figure is close to 20%.

Silicon Valley angel investor Liron Shapira posted on X this morning, stating: "I assert (with 50% confidence): due to AI shaking the security and stability guarantees that people once believed Bitcoin had, the price of BTC will plummet more than 50% within the next two years."Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin rebutted this, saying: "I hold the completely opposite view. My fundamental reason is that, in the long run, I am quite optimistic about network security, and I believe the main challenge is how to smoothly transition through the transition period. Moreover, I believe BTC can at least properly handle all issues that do not require social consensus to resolve (for example, upgrading clients, mining pools, etc., to deal with network layer attacks fall into this category). Additionally, I believe the probability of hash algorithms or proof-of-work mechanisms being truly compromised is extremely low. I wanted to make a bet with you, but considering my current asset allocation (I guess you have the same view on Ethereum ETH), I have already staked about 90% of my wealth on this bet."
