Big investors are buying this “unlisted” stock

When the founder who sold his last company to Zillow for $120M starts a new venture, people notice. That’s why the same VCs who backed Uber, Venmo, and eBay also invested in Pacaso.

Disrupting the real estate industry once again, Pacaso’s streamlined platform offers co-ownership of premier properties, revamping the $1.3T vacation home market.

And it works. By handing keys to 2,000+ happy homeowners, Pacaso has already made $110M+ in gross profits in their operating history.

Now, after 41% YoY gross profit growth last year alone, they recently reserved the Nasdaq ticker PCSO.

What Just Happened

Last night, Bitcoin marched to a new high, then gave back ground — all in under 24 hours. It reached approximately $124,000, only to retreat back toward the $119K region as markets digested inflation data and massive liquidations.

Why It Matters (First-Person View)

I’ve been tracking these intraday swings closely — they’re telling. A rally of this size overnight, followed by sharp liquidation-driven drops, shows bitcoin’s dual nature: volatile and reactive, yet attractive whenever a macro narrative shifts even subtly.

That said, what fascinates me is how quickly the mood can shift. A tanking dollar, shifting rate expectations, and ETF flows — every element plays fluidly with BTC’s price.

Eyes on What’s Next

TL;DR

Bitcoin hit a new high tonight near $124K, only to cave in sharply to about $119K amid inflation jitters and heavy liquidations. A volatile reminder: momentum is fast-moving and unforgiving — but still alive until proven otherwise.
