Europe's most successful startup just open-sourced their recruitment playbook.

Their $48B valuation came from 1 thing: hiring brilliant people at scale.

2M+ candidates processed every year, 10,000+ A-players hired.

Here's the recruitment system behind their explosive growth: First, some context about what makes Revolut different.

Most companies hire based on experience and credentials.

They look for people who've "done it before" at bigger companies.

But Revolut discovered this approach completely breaks at scale...

In 2022, this Russian billionaire went on a mission to replace VCs with AI.

10 billion data points analyzed. 700,000 companies tracked.

Result: 17 investments picked by AI, outperforming the best funds by 2X.

Here's the $250M algorithm that has Silicon Valley panicking: Here's what most people don't realize about venture capital:

It's broken.

VCs make decisions based on gut feelings, personal networks, and unconscious bias.

Most startups fail anyway.

But one founder saw a different path:

Ruja Ignatova is the WILDEST criminal alive:

• Scammed 3m people
• Stole $20bn of Bitcoin
• Framed her own brother
• Vanished in 2017 and never found
• Only woman on FBI's Most Wanted List

The person you may know, the story you don't 🧵
She's the only woman on the FBI's Most Wanted List.

$5 million reward if you can find her.

She vanished with billions, leaving millions of victims worldwide.

She was Dr. Ruja Ignatova, a respected financier.

Here's how she pulled off one of history's biggest scams:

2008 crisis started with housing debt.

2025 crisis? $10 fast-food loans.

Klarna's losses doubled to $99M in 90 days.

The warning sign everyone's ignoring:
In 2008, it was house loans bundled into collateralized debt obligations.

Today, it's "collateralized burrito loans" through buy-now-pay-later services.

Klarna reported consumer credit losses of $136M in just one quarter.

But most people are missing what this really means...

30 years ago, Qatar was an empty desert of Bedouin tribes

Yesterday, they gifted a $400M jet to Trump - the largest for any US President...

They now silently control more of London than the British Royal Family

Inside the $335bn family quietly conquering Western civilization:
The Al Thani family (Qatar's ruling dynasty) has wealth that exceeds the GDP of 100+ countries.

What's shocking isn't just their money ($335 billion and counting).

It's how quickly they've built this empire.

And how strategically they've used it to infiltrate Western power...

In 2012, Coinbase was 24 hours from collapse:

• Website crashed every 8 hours
• Hackers stole $2.1M from customers
• Every bank wanted them dead

Now your retirement savings are joining their $3T revolution.

Here's how Wall Street's most hated startup joined the S&P 500: The journey from death's door to the S&P 500 is nearly impossible.

99.9% of startups never make it. Even successful ones rarely crack America's most prestigious market index.

How did a crypto company—once fringe technology—pull off this financial miracle?

Sam Altman just declared war on every AI company.

His $300B company, OpenAI, just bought Windsurf for $3B...

And he now has the ONE thing Anthropic, Google and Meta desperately need.

Here's how Sam Altman is outplaying the entire AI industry:
First, let's put this in perspective.

Windsurf is the #2 AI-powered coding environment behind Cursor.

But here's the kicker – Windsurf has only 2-5% market share among developers.

Meanwhile, Cursor dominates with 10x more users.

One prompt. One minute. One fully functional web app.

Google's Gemini 2.5 Pro Preview just obliterated Claude & ChatGPT

It instantly creates games, apps, and UI components—while being cheaper than both Claude 3.7 & GPT-4o

What took coders weeks now happens in seconds: The benchmark results tell everything.

Gemini 2.5 Pro Preview scored 62 points higher than Claude 3.7 on the WebDev Arena Leaderboard.

This isn't just a minor improvement, it's a paradigm shift in what Google's AI can build.

With one prompt, Gemini makes fully functional apps.

America's government wastes 35 hours of YOUR life every year.

Estonia eliminated this problem with its 100% digital government.

No paperwork. No beaurocracy.

Their digital revolution makes the U.S. look stuck in 1995.

Here's how Estonia built the government of the future:
1995 called and wants America's bureaucracy back.

The average American wastes 35 hours yearly on government paperwork.

That's a full work week lost every year.

Meanwhile, Estonia runs a 99% digital government that's revolutionizing what's possible. Here's how they did it:

Venture capitalists just bet $11 billion that AI will replace doctors.

Yale researchers built an app that detects heart conditions without cardiologists.

It's as revolutionary as the invention of the MRI.

Your next life-saving diagnosis may come from an algorithm, not a doctor
Yale researchers created an app that identifies heart conditions with 90% accuracy without any cardiologist.

No expensive equipment. Just a smartphone.

This could save millions of lives, especially in rural areas where specialists are scarce.

And that's just the beginning...

Jensen Huang just made the most dangerous business trip of 2025.

Nvidia's CEO rushed to Beijing after the US blocked their chips for China.

$5.5 billion in orders - gone overnight.

The untold story of how Nvidia is caught in a dangerous US-China tug of war: First, some context:

Nvidia is the undisputed king of AI chips. In 2024, it became the world's most valuable company, worth $3.4 trillion at its peak.

Their graphics processors power everything from ChatGPT to Tesla.

But they're now caught in a geopolitical tug-of-war:

Deloitte's AI just exposed a devastating truth:

Their systems process 166x more data, cut costs, and boost output by 40%.

Not because they built better technology.

But because they discovered why humans can't compete anymore: 🧵 The Big Four accounting firms have invested billions into agentic AI.

Deloitte reported that its AI-powered finance agents reduced costs by 25% while increasing productivity by 40%.

The most remarkable discovery?

Google just spent $32,000,000,000 on a company nobody has heard of.

It's a cybersecurity startup.

They offered $23 billion and got rejected—then won with $9 billion more.

But why the fuss? What does this unknown startup have that's worth 2x more than Snapchat? 🧵 Let's put this in perspective.

This is Google's biggest acquisition ever.

For a company founded only 4 years ago, in 2020.

But here's why Google was so desperate...

Humanity is facing EXTINCTION—slowly, silently, and PERMANENTLY.

Global birth rates are COLLAPSING to the lowest levels in history.

South Korea, Japan & the US all just reached record lows.

Here's what this means for the future of our species: 🧵 For the first time in history, we're watching our species voluntarily decline.

South Korea's birth rate has plummeted to 0.72 children per woman.

In Japan, two people die for every baby born.

The US has dropped to a record low of 1.64.

Here's the shocking reality:

ChatGPT created a dangerous career divide:

Nearly 1 in 4 tech jobs now require AI skills.

It's triggered the most brutal transformation in hiring history—27% of regular jobs just vanished overnight.

Here's why most workers still don't see what's coming: 🧵 In late 2022, ChatGPT changed everything.

What began as a fascinating tool morphed into something ominous:

A stark divide between workers who understand AI and those who don't.

But here's what most people missed:

In 2021, banks gave the CEO of OnlyFans 72 hours to decide:

Ban adult content or lose everything.

He announced the ban, but he changed his mind just days later.

That reversal built a $6.6 BILLION empire...

Here's the ONE thing that made him reverse that decision:🧵 Most social platforms rely on ads for revenue.

But OnlyFans decided to cut out advertisers completely.

Focus 100% on direct creator-to-fan payments.

The platform only makes money when creators make money.

But here's where things got interesting...

In 2003, this guy created a simple quiz to check if you were a human.

But 20 years later, he can't even solve his own puzzles anymore.

And the worst part is, he regrets ever creating it.

Here's the disturbing truth about CAPTCHA (& the beast they've been training):🧵 Back in the early 2000s, Websites were drowning in bot-created spam accounts and fake signups.

They desperately needed a way to verify real humans.

His solution: Make users decipher distorted text.

It was called CAPTCHA and it was absolutley genius...

The way Elon is running DOGE is wild: 2 million employees offered buyouts. $55B in cuts identified...in 2 months. It's the EXACT same playbook he used to overhaul Twitter.

Multiple lawsuits have already been filed against him. But here's why every entrepreneur must take notes:🧵 First, let's understand what's happening...

Elon is attempting the largest government reform in modern history.

He's trying to cut $2,000,000,000,000 ( $2 trillion) in spending.

And he's doing it with the same ruthless efficiency he used at Twitter...

In 2004, this man spent his days taking pictures of the street of Palo Alto.

Everyone laughed at him...

So he strapped cameras to cars, camels, and even snowmobiles.

Now 2 billion people use his app every month.

Here's the untold story of how Larry Page mapped the world: 🧵 A man stops every few feet on the streets of Palo Alto.

Takes out his video camera. Records. Drives a bit further. Repeats.

His co-workers were baffled.

Members of the public were creasing...

But Larry saw something nobody else could...

Alibaba just declared war on Silicon Valley.

They're investing $52 billion in China's AI future from the ground up.

It's the largest AI infrastructure investment in the country's history.

Here's their master plan to end Western tech supremacy: 🧵 $52.4 billion over just 3 years.

That's more than Alibaba has spent on AI in the past decade combined.

This massive investment matches half of the current commitment to the US Stargate AI plan.

But the timing of this move reveals something fascinating...

Elon just took a chainsaw to the establishment.

It wasn't just for show.

It's part of his plan to slash government bureaucracy.

But one move in particular has politicians terrified of what's next: On January 20, 2025, Trump issued an executive order that sent shockwaves through Washington.

He created the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) & appointed Elon as its head.

It gave Elon's team access to 15 federal agencies instantly.

That's when it got interesting...
