Happy Wednesday, Digital Wealth Devotees! This week we ended up with more content than usual, but it's all really interesting, so we hope you'll enjoy it as much as we did gathering it all up!

In what is surely a MOST uncanny coincidence, two major fintech SPAC deals were recently announced at $5 Billion dollar valuations First, what are the odds, and second, HOLY CANNOLI, that's a lot of money.

Insurance and crypto. Those categories were the two big winners this past week in fintech-focused venture capital with deals ranging from $80M-$100M.

Welcome to our latest edition of Digital Wealth News! Last week was moving week for the Taylor household, and this week we are publishing from our new home base in Bozeman, MT. Without skipping a beat, and even despite the 2,000 mile road trip, we have one of the best editions we've produced to date. Check it out!

You would think that with last week's Thanksgiving holiday here in the US, muted as it was due to the pandemic, we would have seen slowed down deal activity in the fintech sector. Turns out that assumption would be WRONG, and we still saw deal closings, believe it or not, with one that topped $300M(!!) and three more topped the $100M+ figure.
