Calacanis: non-accredited investors in private markets is the next decade's revolution

Calacanis says he's short crypto and long startups, and most of all long non-accredited investors entering private markets. He predicts a sophistication test (20-40 questions) will replace pure wealth-based accreditation, unlocking the 96% of Americans currently shut out.

“I'm really long non-accredited investors participating in private markets. I think that's going to be the big revolution of the next decade.”

Watch elections (and everything) with your favorite small influencers

Shaan argues the future of consuming live events is doing it alongside niche influencers you care about, citing the All In podcast's election coverage and Joe Rogan's 500K concurrent livestream viewers. He frames 'co-watching with your tribe' as a rising business opportunity.

“Joe Rogan had half a million concurrent viewers on his livestream for the election, where he was just shooting the shit with his friends, talking about it. The UFC, often when there's a UFC fight, there's also the Fight Companion, which is always big, and it's just Joe Rogan and his friends getting drunk, eating cheese, and watching the fights together. It's way more fun than the official broadcast. And so I just think this is an interesting trend in a business, in a business opportunity that will continue to rise over time, which is like consuming stuff with the kind of little influencers that you care about.”
