Venice (VVV)

Venice AI raised $65 million, raising its valuation to $1 billion, but the “equity + token” structure sparked controversy This privacy‑focused AI company now has annualized revenue exceeding $70 million and plans to use the new funds to purchase GPUs and build its own data center. The controversy lies in the fact that equity investors receive legal rights, while VVV holders mainly rely on the company’s buy‑back and burn commitments. This once again raises an old question: when an AI company has both equity and tokens, who should the value flow to?

only bullish take on here and feeling confident going against the consensus -- $VVV is by far my largest position and super confident to continue holding this for months to come -- lets see how this plays out

why would someone bid $VVV when $POD exists?

Despite the new fundraising round, Venice AI is facing a wave of criticism from VVV token investors who argue that there will now be a conflict of interest with the project's shareholders. Details: https://t.co/yIwX0lPuDY https://t.co/q847JL1X8M

$VVV pumped 15%. Tokenholders lost all revenue claims.

love seeing all the $VVV FUD on the TL -- can't wait to see how it all plays out over the coming months, especially after minds release -- the non-obvious plays make you the most insane returns over time and i deep faith in the venice team and community absolutely unfazed

So tell me you don't understand $VVV @AskVenice without telling me you don't understand.... *winner* @MikeIppolito_ your argument has zero worth here you are using projects from years ago that don't correlate to how things are building today. What everyone else did was pull away and make foundations to do equity plays but now there is the chance to do them both together and instead of celebrating it you just want to diminish it from things that failed or didn't go right in the past. I would love to have a deeper talk with you about anytime. But in the mean time i would suggest using the word "AND", tokens AND equity.

Tulip King is a great follow. He’s the Peter Schiff of crypto. Always thoughtful and a dose of reality for the bulls. @tulipking

Great rundown on VVV’s raise today. Kinda necessary. Much better than the usual “sell to VC’s first undisclosed allo and dump your head” model. Bullish imho. Especially bullish for the proper moonshot scenarios, where we are competing with tardfi giants, not crypto shitters.
