The key to a $1.3T opportunity

A new trend in real estate is making the most expensive properties obtainable. It’s called co-ownership, and it’s revolutionizing the $1.3T vacation home market.

The company leading the trend? Pacaso. Created by the founder of Zillow, Pacaso turns underutilized luxury properties into fully-managed assets and makes them accessible to the broadest possible market.

The result? More than $1b in transactions, 2,000+ happy homeowners, and over $110m in gross profits for Pacaso.

With rapid international growth and 41% gross profit growth last year, Pacaso is ready for what’s next. They even recently reserved the Nasdaq ticker PCSO.

But the real opportunity is now, before public markets. Until 5/29, you can join leading investors like SoftBank and Maveron for just $2.80/share.

This is a paid advertisement for Pacaso’s Regulation A offering. Please read the offering circular at invest.pacaso.com. Reserving a ticker symbol is not a guarantee that the company will go public. Listing on the NASDAQ is subject to approvals. Under Regulation A+, a company has the ability to change its share price by up to 20%, without requalifying the offering with the SEC.

🤯 US stocks slipped while bitcoin rallied on higher Treasury yields
Bitcoin smashed through a new all-time high of $109,888 on Wednesday, even as Wall Street tanked after a shaky Treasury auction. Yields soared, stocks dropped, but Bitcoin? It held steady, even gaining 1%. That’s rare air for BTC, which has acted more like a safe haven than a risk asset this year.

💵 The dollar could lose its crown
The US dollar is slipping, and fast. Once the king of safe havens, it's now one of the worst-performing assets of the year, down over 8% and trading like an emerging market currency. Investors are ditching the dollar in favor of undervalued plays in Europe and Asia, as confidence in America's fiscal path weakens. So, what happens next?
