Hello, and welcome back to\u00a0Equity<\/a>, a podcast about the business of startups, where we unpack the numbers and nuance behind the headlines. This is our Monday show, where we dig into the weekend and take a peek at the week that is to come.<\/p>\n

Now that we are finally past Y Combinator\u2019s demo day \u2014 though our Friday show<\/a> is worth listening if you haven\u2019t had a chance yet \u2014 we can dive into the latest news. So, this morning on Equity Monday we got into the chance that the United States might pass a real data privacy law<\/a>. There\u2019s movement to report, but we\u2019re still very, very far from anything becoming law.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, the U.S. and TSMC have a new deal<\/a>, there\u2019s gaming news to consider<\/a> (and a venture tie-in<\/a>), and Spotify\u2019s latest AI plans<\/a>, which I am sure will delight some and annoy others. Hit play, and let\u2019s talk about the news!<\/p>\n

Oh, and on the crypto front, I forgot to mention that trading volume<\/a> of digital tokens seems to have partially arrested its free fall, which should help some exchanges breath a bit more easily.<\/p>\n
