What Happened: Bitcoin plunged sharply through the day but managed to stay above the psychologically crucial $100,000 mark.
Ethereum's descent was steeper, as the second-largest cryptocurrency retreated to the $3,600 region following a near 6% drop.
The slump triggered over $675 million in cryptocurrency liquidations in the last 24 hours, with long liquidations hitting $578 million.
The decline came following Fed Chair Jerome Powell's comments during the press conference following the Federal Open Market Committee meeting, where he disclosed that the central bank can't hold Bitcoin and it wasn't looking for a law change.
Bitcoin's Open Interest dropped 1.1%, however, the number of traders taking long positions for the coin surged above 50%, indicating expectations of a revival.
Over $1 billion in short positions risked liquidation if Bitcoin recovers to $105,900.
Market sentiment cooled from "Extreme Greed" to "Greed," according to the Cryptocurrency Fear &amp; Greed Index, signaling a decline in FOMO.

The global cryptocurrency market capitalization stood at $3.51 trillion, dropping over 5% in the last 24 hours.
Stocks got pounded on Wednesday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average plunged 1,123.03 points, or 2.58%, to close at 42,326.87 as the index posted its 10th consecutive losing day. The S&amp;P 500 slipped 2.95%, ending at 5,872.16, while the tech-focused Nasdaq Composite dipped 3.56% to 19,392.69.
The market suffered <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/12/42563299/feds-powell-shocks-markets-its-a-new-phase-were-significantly-closer-to-neutral">despite the Fed's latest 25-basis-point reduction</a> as Chair Powell hinted at a more cautious stance in 2025, with just two more 0.25% rate cuts projected next year, compared to the four anticipated in September.
The benchmark 10-year Treasury yields leaped to 4.5%, the highest since early June, as risk sentiment evaporated.

Analyst Notes: Widely followed cryptocurrency analyst and trader Ali Martinez weighed in on the central bank's policy shift, stating that 2025 looks a "lot less rosy."
"For now, keep calm, don't panic sell, and remember: markets hate uncertainty, but they also thrive on it when the dust settles. Let's see where this goes from here," Martinez advised traders.
In his analysis of the Federal Reserve action, Ali said, &#8220;It wasn't today's 25 bps cut that made markets freak out—it was the realization that inflation might stick around longer, and the Fed's not quite ready to take its foot off the gas. Sentiment is shifting, and 2025 suddenly looks a lot less rosy.

Another well-known analyst, Rekt Capital, noted Bitcoin's daily close above $100,000 but cautioned that it wasn't enough.
&#8220;However, for BTC to move up from here, it would need to reclaim ~$101,000 as support, much like it did on Dec. 14. Otherwise, $101,000 could turn into new resistance, which could mean the downside isn&#8217;t over," the analyst stated.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Fall After Fed Shows No Interest For Piling BTC: Top Analyst Says Sentiment Shifting — '2025 Suddenly Looks A Lot Less Rosy'

Larry Ellison and Steve Jobs once devised a plan to rescue Apple Inc. and reinstate Jobs as CEO during the company&#8217;s challenging times.
What Happened: In a 2016 commencement speech at USC, Ellison, who co-founded Oracle Corporation, recounted a pivotal conversation with Jobs in 1995.
At the time, Apple was struggling, and Ellison proposed buying the company to make Jobs CEO.
&#8220;My idea was simple, buy Apple, and immediately make Steve CEO. Apple wasn't worth much back then, about $5 billion dollars,&#8221; he stated, adding, &#8220;We both had really good credit and I had already arranged to borrow all of the money. All Steve had to do was say yes.&#8221;

However, Jobs suggested a more indirect approach: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/23/12/36321524/if-you-invested-1000-in-apple-when-it-announced-next-acquisition-to-bring-back-steve-jobs-heres-">persuading Apple to acquire</a> NeXT, his company, and then gradually taking a leadership role.
Ellison shared that Jobs was not motivated by financial gain, and pointed out the importance of standing on &#8220;moral high ground.&#8221;
Despite Ellison&#8217;s initial reluctance, he supported Jobs&#8217; vision of eventually joining Apple&#8217;s board.
This decision led to Jobs&#8217; return and Apple&#8217;s transformation into the world's most valuable company today with a market capitalization of $3.749 trillion. Year-to-date, Apple&#8217;s stock has climbed 33.62%.

Why It Matters: After co-founding Apple in 1976 alongside Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne, Jobs was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/40876783/steve-jobs-came-back-to-apple-27-years-ago-today-after-12-years-in-exile-if-you-invested-1-000-w">pushed out nine years later</a> by John Sculley, the CEO he had brought on board.
Jobs made his return to Apple in 1996 when the company acquired NeXT, and by 1997, he was appointed interim CEO.
Apple's revival required a critical investment from competitor Microsoft Corporation, which was then spearheaded by Bill Gates, and Jobs' visionary approach to reimagining the company.
Jobs also drew lessons from Nike and transformed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38985210/steve-jobs-turned-around-apples-fortunes-27-years-ago-not-by-making-mac-better-than-windows-but-by-u">Apple's marketing strategies</a> to make them more impactful.
By the time he finally resigned as CEO in 2011, Apple had already transformed into a powerhouse of innovation. Jobs&#8217; successor, Tim Cook, had been prepared to take the reins, having already led the company during his health-related absences.

Larry Ellison Once Considered Buying Apple In Order To Make Steve Jobs The CEO Again: 'My Idea Was Simple…'

The stock market experienced a turbulent day following remarks from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. The S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq indices both saw significant declines, with the former dropping by 2.95% and the latter tumbling 3.6%. Powell&#8217;s announcement of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/12/42563299/feds-powell-shocks-markets-its-a-new-phase-were-significantly-closer-to-neutral">cautious approach</a> to future interest rate cuts contributed to the market&#8217;s volatility.
Despite the overall market downturn, several stocks stood out, drawing the interest of retail traders and investors. These are the top stocks that gained the attention of retail traders and investors throughout the day:
Micron Technology Inc.
Micron&#8217;s stock fell 4.33%, closing at $103.90. The stock hit an intraday high of $112.04 and a low of $102.73, with a 52-week range between $157.54 and $78.63. The company reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/12/42564387/micron-q1-earnings-revenue-miss-eps-beat-soft-guidance-sinks-shares-as-consumer-markets-turn-weaker-in-near-term">first-quarter earnings</a>, revealing a revenue miss of $8.71 billion, slightly below the consensus estimate. However, adjusted earnings per share beat expectations at $1.79. Despite this, soft guidance for the near term due to weaker consumer markets led to the stock&#8217;s decline.
Quantum Corporation
Quantum&#8217;s shares surged 153.04%, closing at $60.02, after reaching a high of $64.20 and a low of $22.15. The stock&#8217;s 52-week range is $64.20 to $2.22. The company announced the development of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42556629/whats-going-on-with-quantum-corporation-stock-wednesday">parallel file system client</a> for its Myriad all-flash file system. This new client supports NVIDIA&#8217;s GPUDirect Storage, enhancing cross-platform compatibility.
Meta Platforms Inc.
Meta&#8217;s stock dropped 3.59%, closing at $597.19. It recorded an intraday high of $627.36 and a low of $596.32, with a 52-week high of $638.40 and a low of $340.02. The company is projected to see significant growth in advertising revenue, with Instagram <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42560942/instagrams-ad-revenue-could-hit-32-billion-by-2025-driving-metas-growth-report">potentially generating</a> $32 billion by 2025. This growth is driven by the increasing popularity of its short-form video product, Reels, according to a previous report.
Amazon.com Inc.
Amazon&#8217;s shares declined by 4.60%, closing at $220.52. The stock&#8217;s intraday high was $231.40, with a low of $220.11, and a 52-week range of $233 to $144.05. The company is set to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42562732/mrbeasts-new-game-show-to-premiere-on-amazon-prime-video-thursday-why-billionaire-david-tepper-may-be-watching">premiere a new game show</a> by YouTube star MrBeast on its Prime Video platform. This move is anticipated to attract significant attention, as highlighted in a recent report.
Tesla, Inc.
Tesla&#8217;s stock plummeted 8.28%, closing at $440.13. The stock reached an intraday high of $488.54 and a low of $427.01, with a 52-week high of $488.54 and a low of $138.80. Despite the decline, Tesla remains a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42562149/teslas-bright-2025-outlook-rivian-faces-roadblocks-analyst-view">top pick for analysts</a> due to its long-term potential. Baird analyst Ben Kallo emphasized Tesla&#8217;s momentum, even amidst geopolitical and policy challenges, as detailed in a recent analysis.

Nvidia Partner TuSimple Rebrands As CreateAI Shifts Focus From Autonomous Driving To AI-Powered Gaming And Content

Bill Ackman, CEO Of Pershing Square Capital Management, shared his views on how the Department of Government Efficiency can effectively influence policy decisions, using the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/12/42566558/house-republicans-reject-spending-bill-under-pressure-from-trump-musk-government-faces-shutdown">recently scuttled spending bill</a> as an example.
What Happened: On Wednesday, Ackman outlined a three-step strategy for DOGE to make an impact. In a post on X, the billionaire used the recent events surrounding the spending bill as a case study for how DOGE can progress rapidly.
Ackman outlined a three-step process that led to the bill&#8217;s apparent defeat. According to him, the sequence began with DOGE co-head Vivek Ramaswamy&#8217;s analysis of the bill on X, followed by public criticism from users including his fellow DOGE leader Elon Musk who highlighted what they considered wasteful spending. The final step, Ackman suggested, was Congress members&#8217; reluctance to support the legislation amid concerns about primary challenges and public backlash over what he characterized as &#8220;pork and other waste.&#8221;

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
The post came in the wake of a rejected spending bill that had been under scrutiny for its content. The bill, which was opposed by a significant number of House GOP members, including President-elect Donald Trump, failed to secure the necessary support to pass.
Ackman&#8217;s post was in reaction to a post by Ramaswamy who dished out &#8220;real-time&#8221; advice to Congress and urged it to go &#8220;back to the drawing board&#8221; on the bill. He said that there was still &#8220;time for forgiveness.&#8221;
Musk too highlighted the role of X users in the abandoning of the spending bill. He said, &#8220;This was a good day for America.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The spending bill&#8217;s rejection marked a significant moment in U.S. politics. The bill, which aimed to extend federal funding until March 14 and avert a government shutdown, was met with opposition.
Earlier, Congressional leaders had reached a consensus on a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42544562/congressional-leaders-reach-bipartisan-deal-to-avert-government-shutdown">bipartisan deal</a> to extend government funding, thereby averting the looming December 20 shutdown deadline. The agreement, which included a one-year farm bill extension and approximately $100 billion in disaster relief, marked the end of weeks of negotiations over disaster aid and overall funding.
Last month, Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/11/41927289/trump-appoints-elon-musk-and-vivek-ramaswamy-to-lead-doge-targeting-bureaucracy-and-65-trillion-federal-spending-we-will-not-go-gently">appointed Musk and Ramaswamy</a> to lead DOGE, which is aimed at cutting bureaucracy, waste, and federal spending by 2026. Musk and Ramaswamy have pledged bold reforms.
Democrats have criticized the abandoning of the bill. Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) said that Republicans are hurting the working class Americans they claim to support by ordering a &#8220;shut down&#8221; of the government. He said, &#8220;You break the bipartisan agreement, you own the consequences that follow.&#8221;

Bill Ackman Says Events Around The Scuttled Spending Bill Provide A Road Map For 'Rapid DOGE Progress'

FedEx Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDX#NYSE">FDX</a>) is set to report its fiscal second-quarter results on Thursday after the closing bell and analysts are expecting a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42496990/trump-eyes-privatization-of-postal-service-amid-9-5-billion-loss"> decline in earnings.</a> 
What To Know: FedEx reported disappointing first-quarter results in September with adjusted earnings nearly 25% below consensus estimates. The company cited a mix-shift that trended toward higher volumes of less profitable freight and weakness in its industrial and manufacturing customers.&nbsp;
"The soft industrial economy is clearly weighing on the [business-to-business] volumes. And it was definitely much weaker than we expected," FedEx CEO Raj Subramaniam said on the company's most recent earnings call.&nbsp;

FedEx is often seen as a bellwether for the economy because shipping volumes correlate with both industrial and consumer demand.&nbsp;
Investors will be looking at the performance of FedEx&#8217;s Express unit which could be affected by demand-induced volume weakness and listening for more information on the potential spinoff of its Freight business.&nbsp;
Investors will be looking for updates on FedEx&#8217;s DRIVE cost-cutting program, which aims to achieve $4 billion in savings by fiscal 2025.&nbsp;
What Else: President-elect Donald Trump suggested <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42545204/marjorie-taylor-greene-pushes-to-sell-off-usps-amid-doge-momentum-we-need-to-privatize-ive-been-saying-it-for-years">the possibility </a>of privatizing the U.S. Postal Service, which could benefit FedEx and other private parcel carriers like United Parcel Service, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>). 
"There is talk about the Postal Service being taken private, you do know that — not the worst idea I've ever heard," Trump told reporters at Mar-a-Lago on Monday. "It's a lot different today between Amazon and UPS and FedEx, and all the things you didn't have."
Expert Ideas: Last week, Bernstein analyst David Vernon <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/FDX/analyst-ratings">downgraded</a> FedEx from Outperform to Market Perform and lowered the price target from $337 to $316 ahead of its second-quarter report.&nbsp;
Citi analysts wrote Friday that the coming earnings report &#8220;could be one of the most consequential quarters in years&#8221; for FedEx, per Investopedia.&nbsp;
FedEx will report its second-quarter financial results after Thursday's closing bell and will host a conference call to discuss the results at 5:30 p.m. ET the same day. According to estimates from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro</a>, analysts expect the company to report earnings of $3.91 per share on quarterly revenue of $22.12 billion.&nbsp;
FDX Price Action: According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro</a>, FedEx shares ended Wednesday's session down 1.54% at $273.16.&nbsp;

FedEx Braces For Q2 Earnings: 'One Of The Most Consequential Quarters In Years,' Analyst Says

Super Micro Computer Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) shares fell 4.64% to $32.23 Wednesday following the Federal Reserve's December meeting.
Growth-focused companies like SMCI are particularly sensitive to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/12/42563299/feds-powell-shocks-markets-its-a-new-phase-were-significantly-closer-to-neutral">interest rate changes</a>, as higher borrowing costs can dampen investment in technology infrastructure.
What To Know: The Fed lowered the federal funds rate by 25 basis points to a range of 4.25%-4.5%, marking its third consecutive cut. However, the updated economic projections signaled a slower pace of rate reductions in 2025, with only two additional cuts expected. The Fed also raised its inflation forecast, projecting core PCE inflation at 2.5% in 2025, up from 2.2% in September.
The prospect of sustained higher rates adds pressure on companies like SMCI, with customers who often rely on favorable financing conditions for large-scale IT projects. Additionally, higher inflation could squeeze margins as operating costs rise.
The broader tech sector also faced selling pressure, amplifying SMCI's decline. The company's performance remains tied to macroeconomic trends, with investors reassessing growth prospects amid a slower-than-expected path to monetary easing.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy SMCI Stock</h1>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Super Micro Computer — be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy &#8220;fractional shares,&#8221; which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share. For example, some stock, like Berkshire Hathaway, can cost thousands of dollars to own just one share. However, if you only want to invest a fraction of that, brokerages will allow you to do so.
In the the case of Super Micro Computer, which is trading at $32.23 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 3.1 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to &#8220;go short&#8221; a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading — either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, SMCI has a 52-week high of $122.90 and a 52-week low of $17.25.

The ProShares UltraPro QQQ (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TQQQ#NASDAQ">TQQQ</a>), which provides triple-leveraged exposure to the Nasdaq-100 Index, fell some 10.81% to $82.09 Wednesday after the Federal Reserve's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s/24/12/42561549/fed-slashes-interest-rates-by-0-25-as-predicted-december-dot-plot-flags-only-2-potential-cuts-in-2025">December meeting</a>.
What To Know: The ETF is sensitive to bullish sentiment in tech stocks, which struggled amid concerns over the Fed's cautious outlook on monetary easing.
While the Fed reduced the federal funds rate by 25 basis points to a range of 4.25%-4.5%, projections for only two additional rate cuts in 2025 dampened investor enthusiasm.

Higher inflation expectations for 2025, with core PCE inflation now forecast at 2.5%, further weighed on growth stocks.
Tech-heavy indices, which benefit from lower borrowing costs, faced headwinds as the Fed signaled a slower pace of rate reductions than markets had previously anticipated. Wednesday&#8217;s decline could reflect renewed uncertainty about the growth sector's ability to thrive in a persistently higher-rate environment.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, TQQQ has a 52-week high of $93.79 and a 52-week low of $45.47.

Editor&#8217;s note: This story has been corrected to state that MicroStrategy&#8217;s dollar cost average price for Bitcoin is below, not above, the current price of the cryptocurrency. 
With Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) prices peaking to all-time high levels, MicroStrategy's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) aggressive Bitcoin accumulation strategy has once again become a focal point in discussions among <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/12/42503221/microstrategy-shares-surge-nearly-7-amid-nasdaq-100-inclusion-and-bitcoins-new-record-high">traders and analysts</a>.
What Happened: In a tweet on Monday, industry expert Alex Kolicich addressed common misconceptions about MSTR in a recent tweet, explaining that the stock is neither a leveraged nor a synthetic call option on Bitcoin. 
Instead, Kolicich pointed out several structural inefficiencies:
<ul>
<li>MSTR trades at a 140% premium to its Bitcoin holdings&#8217; net asset value (NAV).</li>
<li>Each $1 invested in MSTR stock provides only $0.45 of Bitcoin exposure, far less than direct Bitcoin ownership.</li>
</ul>
Kolicich further <a href="https://x.com/AlexKolicich/status/1868705490387321177">elaborated</a> that MicroStrategy is not leveraged but instead deleveraged, offering reduced Bitcoin exposure compared to direct investments. 
He highlighted alternatives like BITX, which provide 2x leverage without a NAV premium.
Additionally, while traditional call options on assets typically offer leveraged upside due to their long volatility exposure, MSTR's convertible bonds effectively short volatility, diluting shareholder returns as Bitcoin prices rise.

Why It Matters: Crypto trader TheFlowHorse on Dec. 17 in a post on X emphasized the implications of Saylor&#8217;s aggressive Bitcoin purchases, noting that these acquisitions have significantly raised MicroStrategy's DCA to $61,000. 
This figure is approximately 40% lower than Bitcoin's current price, introducing potential risks if prices fall significantly.

Analysts warn that while Bitcoin&#8217;s pullbacks have historically been rare, Saylor's strategy could leave MSTR exposed to potential downside risk, especially with its C-Corp structure subject to double taxation, unlike <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42275232/leveraged-microstrategy-etfs-are-playing-with-fire-experts-warn">more efficient ETFs</a>.

On Wednesday, House Republicans rejected Speaker Mike Johnson's proposed spending bill that would have extended federal funding until March 14 and averted a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42544562/congressional-leaders-reach-bipartisan-deal-to-avert-government-shutdown"> government shutdown. </a>&nbsp;
The Details: President-elect Donald Trump and Elon Musk joined a large portion of House GOP members in opposing the compromise bill which included numerous Democratic policy priorities.&nbsp;

Some of the Republican-contested late additions from Democrats included a pay raise for members of Congress, new regulations for health plan administrators and federal funds to rebuild the collapsed Francis Scott Key Bridge. The provisions were added after Johnson opened the door with a last-minute addition of&nbsp; $10 billion in aid for farmers.&nbsp;

Entrepreneur and investor Mark Cuban has been an outspoken critic of Elon Musk and the X social media platform. In a recent interview, Cuban shares what sets Bluesky apart from X and why he's spending<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/12/42421291/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-aoc-hits-1-million-followers-with-top-bluesky-account-mark-cuban-gains-popularity-jack-dorsey-notably-absent"> more time there.</a>
Why Cuban Loves Bluesky: Alternate platforms to X, formerly known as Twitter, such as Bluesky and Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>)-owned Threads have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/12/42305424/threads-takes-on-x-bluesky-with-new-search-options-making-it-easier-for-you">seen a rise</a> in user growth after the 2024 presidential election.
Cuban is spending more time on Bluesky where his 775,000 plus <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/mcuban.bsky.social">followers </a>make him one of the most followed accounts. Cuban has 8.8 million <a href="https://x.com/mcuban/">followers </a>on X for comparison.
During a recent <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEK2063FPLw">interview </a>with Jules Terpak, Cuban discussed the current climate of social media and said that all the platforms are algorithmically driven except for one, naming Bluesky as the outlier.
"There's no algorithm," Cuban said.
Cuban highlighted several features of Bluesky during the interview including the limited number of bots, an "old school" chronological order and the ability to make your own lists with the open-source code.
When it comes to what sets Bluesky apart from X, Cuban highlighted one item as the "holy grail." "You truly own your threads."
Cuban said Bluesky users have complete control over the threads on their posts, including the quote replies. "There's a hide for everyone and there's a block that really works."
The entrepreneur said he saw a high volume of people come over from X to Bluesky to troll him during the 2024 election sharing memes and what he referenced as the "Rachel Maddow" pictures, which compare the TV host and investor's resemblance. Cuban said he could block people and hide the replies on posts from trolls for everyone.
Cuban says he sees a lower volume of trolls on Bluesky versus X, where he can't even engage with anyone anymore due to the trolls. The investor recently counted 246 replies on a post on Bluesky and only five were from trolls.
On Bluesky, Cuban is having engaging conversations with people and making fun posts for the first time in years on topics he enjoys talking with others about.
"People have lost the connection to just have normal engagement."
Cuban said his followers on Bluesky are far more engaging than on Twitter, referencing a Bluesky post that recently got 110,000 likes.
"The engagement is insane. You can have a social friendly, intellectual conversation on Bluesky."

TikTok Ban: During the interview, Cuban and Terpak also discussed the pending ban of TikTok in the U.S. unless the company's U.S. division is sold off.
Cuban said he loved the old TikTok and referenced being on the musical.ly platform, which went on to become TikTok, saying he tried to invest in that precursor company.
TikTok changed the world with quick videos, dance and attention grabbing content, but a push to make money made the platform feel more corporate, Cuban added.
To fight off a potential ban, TikTok brought in Cuban for a meeting to share suggestions on how to get around the troubles, he told Terpak. Cuban said he suggested to the company to have an output in the form of a url for the feed of videos watched by anyone 16 and under.
This would make it to where parents would be able to go back and see the list and watch videos their children had watched at any given time. Cuban said this would be good for parents and a governmental perspective to make sure there wasn't propaganda forced on people.
Cuban was asked what the biggest takeaway from TikTok is if the platform is banned.
"The biggest learning is he who controls the algorithm wins."
Cuban said TikTok was an early winner of using an algorithm to put content that people would like in front of them based on what they were watching and were liking.
While there is a potential ban date of Jan. 19 for TikTok in the U.S., which is the day before President Donald Trump's inauguration, Cuban is skeptical this will be the last day anyone sees TikTok videos.
"TikTok will sue and won't get closed on the 19th, that I'm confident of."
Cuban also referenced one of Trump's friends having a stake in the company, which is likely in reference to investor Jeff Yass, who is a Republican megadonor, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/03/37722366/why-did-donald-trump-change-his-mind-about-tiktok-follow-the-money-says-rep-nancy-pelosi">owning a 15% stake</a> in TikTok parent ByteDance.

뉴욕 증권 거래소(NYSE)의 여러 주식들은 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/nyse">기술적 문제</a>로 인해 월요일 동부 표준시 오전 9시 40분 이후 갑자기 거래가 중단되었다.
이번 예상치 못한 거래 중단은 일반적으로 단일 주식의 과도한 변동성을 억제하는 데 사용되는 &#8220;상향 한도(Limit Up)/하향 한도(Limit Down)&#8221; 코드로 분류된 기술적 문제로 인해 촉발되었다.
NYSE는 보고된 기술적 문제를 조사 중이라고 밝혔다. NYSE 소유주인 인터콘티넨탈 익스체인지(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ICE#NYSE">ICE</a>)는 &#8220;추가 정보가 최대한 빨리 나올 것&#8221;이라고 밝혔다.
월요일에 급작스러운 거래 일시 중단을 당한 대기업들 중 일부는 동부 시간 오전 9시 50분 52초에 버크셔 해서웨이(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>)와 9시 44분 58초에 치폴레 멕시칸 그릴(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMG#NYSE">CMG</a>)이 포함됐다.
치폴레의 주가는 3,097달러에서 1,047달러로 66%의 갑작스럽고 극적인 하락을 경험했다. 해당 주식은 오전 10시 21분부터 거래를 재개했다.
오전 9시 49분, 워런 버핏이 소유한 버크셔 해서웨이의 주식은 훨씬 더 심각한 하락에 직면했다. 주가는 622,375달러에서 185.10달러로 99.7%라는 엄청난 폭락으로 거의 소멸될 뻔했다.
월요일의 NYSE 기술적 오작동은 미국 증권 거래소가 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/05/39039375/t-1-settlement-era-on-trading-begins-what-you-need-to-know">1일 결제 기간</a>으로 전환된 지 불과 일주일 만에 발생했다.
