A few notable members..

"The category we're in is at an interesting moment - Hemp THC beverages are facing a pending federal ban, but also moving toward regulatory clarity that would potentially place them into the alcohol three-tier distribution model." โ โโ Craig Lewisโ
Altea Singapore City Captain Nico Monroy recently joined the team atย SDAX. If you're looking at Asia, private markets, or portfolio diversification more broadly, he'd love to connect.
Our Instagram post on Canada's sovereign wealth fund kicked off a heated debate.
"Be very careful with third-party โrecoveryโ firms. In the UK, there are firms that position themselves as helping investors recover losses from insolvencies or failed investments, but the economics can be highly questionable. Some ask for upfront fees, and in many cases investors are asked to assign or sign over their claim. โ The pattern is often the same: YouTube videos, SEO-heavy articles, โfree consultationโ offers, and direct outreach to investor lists. โ Before engaging anyone, investors should check exactly who they are dealing with, whether they are properly regulated, what fees are payable, whether any claim rights are being assigned, and whether the firm has a genuine ability to improve the outcome beyond what the administrator, trustee, or a qualified insolvency solicitor can already do." โ โโ Bryan Cooleyโ

This is the highest demand we've ever had for an investor trip. Very good chance it completely sells out this week.
โRobb Report just named the Genesis PX the best ultra-premium tequila on the market. No tip-off, no paid placement. They found it on their own.
Three years in Buffalo Trace bourbon casks. Three months in Pedro Ximรฉnez Sherry casks. 100% pure agave, no additives. Previous HoR releases have sold out in under 48 hours.
You gotta taste this stuff.
1,000 bottles available, each in a crystal decanter. $229.99 + tax. Altea members get free shipping with code SHIP4FREE (auto-applied at checkout.)
This is a sale of actual bottles, not a registered investment. Open to everyone.
Groundfloor is going beyond Real Estate
You may have seen Brian's recent writeup on Groundfloor.
โ
Two things worth knowing about right now:
First, the Consumer Credit Portfolio is live and closing soon. It's Groundfloor's first expansion beyond real estate debt, and the current window is wrapping up.
10% fixed annual return
Auarterly distributions
Accredited investors only.
Second, the Groundfloor SMB Growth Fund
The launch product in a new small business finance vertical.
Designed to give investors access to a corner of private credit that typically stays institutional
So much of what we think of as modern financial innovation is really just rediscovery. Government bonds. The assembly line. Venture capital. All originated in Venice.
โ
If you're interested in the origins of trade finance, sovereign capital, or just want to understand how a city built on a swamp became the most powerful economic force in the Western world, check this one out.

That's it for today!
See you next week, Wyatt & Stefan
