We have been talking about secondary markets coming back. I know this because people will email me and say, hey, would you like to add to your thumbtack, your calm, et cetera position? Would you like to sell some of those positions? So I am seeing increased activities from this very weird gray market or It's kind of like boiler rooms of people who want to charge you 5 or 10% to buy secondary in SpaceX, whatever is hot, Androil, Stripe, or, you know, and then charge you 5% for selling it.

So it's it's a little bit of underground, a boiler room, a back channel. Yeah, if I cause there are people in it who are above board and, you know, are are known and then there are people who are not, so I get a little nervous sometimes when I get these weird emails if I'm being fished or whatever. Oh wow, so there's like a little wolf of Wall Street, like they're kind of bending the rules a little. This week in Startups is brought to you by Northwest Registered Agent.
