"The e-scooter company Bird, which became the fastest startup ever to land a $1 billion valuation, was delisted from the NYSE and is now worth $7 million. That’s less than a third of the $22 million its founder paid for a Miami mansion in 2021."

Incredible. Kudos to Ryan and his team who have been tackling incredible drone challenges for years now in somewhat unconventional ways and have thoughtfully come up with what I would anticipate is the new gold standard.
Geez louise I wish I could invest.
