NFTs aren’t just digital art — they’re also farts, weddings rings, songs and even porn

Hello! <a href="https://twitter.com/dandefrancesco">Dan DeFrancesco</a> in NYC.Fun Fact Friday: There's a Darth Vader Gargoyle at Washington's National Cathedral. Here's why, <a href="https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/655270/washington-national-cathedral-darth-vader-gargoyle">per Mental Floss.</a>This is the final edition of 10 Things on Wall Street.It's been a pleasure writing for this audience, and I appreciate you giving me a little piece of your inbox every day. But don't worry. It's not goodbye; it's see you later. I'll still be in your inboxes each morning as the senior editor and anchor of Insider Today. Each day, I'll be taking you inside the biggest stories in business, from Wall Street to Silicon Valley.Which brings me to my next point. We're working behind the scenes to revamp Insider Today, and we'd love to hear from you. Please fill out this <a href="https://survey.zohopublic.com/zs/4ICN9N" target="_blank" rel="noopener">quick, five-question survey</a> to let us know what you'd like to see in the newsletter — or you could shoot me an email at <a href="mailto:ddefrancesco@insider.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ddefrancesco@insider.com</a>.Today, we've got stories on <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/goldman-sachs-jpmorgan-mergers-league-tables-advisory-2023-6">a top investment bank slipping in the rankings</a>, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/mastercard-hiring-technologist-software-engineer-payments-fintech-2023-6">how Mastercard is recruiting technologists</a>, and <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/gucci-penthouse-new-york-city-olympic-tower-for-sale-2023-6">a really expensive condo no one wants to buy.</a>But first, here come the ultra-rich. Download Insider's app <a href="https://www.insider.com/app">here</a>.<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/family-offices-ai-rich-americans-wealthy-investing-hype-2023-6"></a>1. The rich and their robots.The job of family offices, investment firms tasked with managing the fortunes of the ultra-rich, has never been about getting massive returns. When you have hundreds of millions — or even billions — of dollars to your name, your priority isn't so much growing as it is maintaining.Which is why Hayley Cuccinello's story on <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/family-offices-ai-rich-americans-wealthy-investing-hype-2023-6">family offices investing in artificial intelligence</a> is so fascinating. Hayley spoke to executives at family offices about how they're navigating the modern-day gold rush that is AI investing. A key focus in this type of environment, as you can imagine, is sorting the reality from the hype.Lest we forget, we've been down this road before. Back in 2021, when bitcoin and NFTs were all the rage, the younger heirs <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/family-office-crypto-investing-millennial-bitcoin-ether-2021-4">were all begging their family offices to get in on crypto.</a>Of course, <a href="https://blockworks.co/news/family-office-crypto-interest-plummets">a lot of those deals never materialized</a> and most family offices have now largely eschewed digital currencies altogether.The difference is family offices have largely gotten in on AI long before the bandwagon arrived, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/family-offices-ai-rich-americans-wealthy-investing-hype-2023-6">Hayley reports.</a>Perhaps that's an indication of — despite the hype — how revolutionary this tech will truly be. Because if there is one thing the ultra-rich hate, it's being left behind.<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/family-offices-ai-rich-americans-wealthy-investing-hype-2023-6">Read more on family offices getting in on the AI gold rush.</a>In other news:<a href="https://www.insider.com/raising-canes-nyc-times-square-restaurant-tour-2023-6"></a><div type="image" title="raising canes times square flagship restaurant" height="2301" width="3069" msid="101396609" hostid="261" sizebytes="419446"></div>2. Goldman takes silver in M&amp;A race. The prestigious investment bank lost the top M&amp;A ranking at the midyear mark for the first time in five years, per data from Refinitiv Deals Intelligence. <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/goldman-sachs-jpmorgan-mergers-league-tables-advisory-2023-6">More on what led to Goldman's slip up, and why it could still make a comeback.</a>3. A developer job at Mastercard: Priceless (or $200,000). The payments giant is looking to lure in technologists with a revamped culture that includes free days to work on passion projects. <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/mastercard-hiring-technologist-software-engineer-payments-fintech-2023-6">Here's how that's going.</a>4. Female applicants to Bill Gates' family office were reportedly asked sexually explicit questions. Some woman who applied to Gates Ventures were asked by a third-party security firm questions that ranged from their preference in porn to if they had STDs, according to The Wall Street Journal. The questions were focused on issues that could lead to blackmailing the potential employee, per the report, but a Gates Ventures spokesperson denied knowledge of the alleged questions. <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/women-applying-bill-gates-ventures-office-porn-affairs-questions-report-2023-6">More here.</a>5. A meteor is hurtling toward Silicon Valley. An "extinction event" is threatening to wreck havoc on the startup industry thanks to myriad factors making it difficult for early-stage companies. Except for Spain, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/spain-fared-better-than-europe-downturn-2023-4">which seems to be doing just fine.</a> Otherwise, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/silicon-valley-fears-exctinction-event-startup-failure-rate-increase-2023-6">brace for impact.</a>6. Yes, you can still find jobs where you can work in your pajamas. For all the talk of pushing people back into the office, there are plenty of remote opportunities. <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/quit-job-or-not-return-to-office-hot-labor-market-2023-6">Read more here.</a>7. Succession plans at Morgan Stanley are heating up. The bank's board plans to consider a successor for CEO James Gorman in upcoming meetings, <a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/finance/morgan-stanley-board-considers-next-ceo-while-gorman-clears-decks-2023-06-29/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">per Reuters.</a>8. These are the best cities to move to if you're just starting out. According to a recent study, Austin, Texas is considered the best city for young professionals. <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/austin-texas-best-city-career-ranked-top-5-2023-6">More on the criteria and the other top four cities.</a>9. Here are pictures of a $35 million NYC penthouse no one seems to want to buy. A 9,450-square-foot condo in Midtown Manhattan believed to be owned by the Guccis has been on the market since 2015. <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/gucci-penthouse-new-york-city-olympic-tower-for-sale-2023-6">Take a peak inside.</a>10.

Hoping that the Centre would send fresh batches of vaccine supply soon, the Chief Minister said if the state is able to meet its target of 2 lakh vaccines a day, then its current supplies will last only three days. He said he had written to the Prime Minister and the Union Health Minister to give confirmed supply schedules. Despite being a slow-starter in vaccination, Punjab has vaccinated more than 16 lakh persons, at an average of around 85,000-90,000 per day, he said during a video conference convened by Congress President Sonia Gandhi to discuss the Covid situation. The meeting was attended by chief ministers of the Congress-ruled states, as well as senior party leaders, including Rahul Gandhi. Captain Amarinder said people in Punjab were still not coming out in large numbers for the vaccination due to the massive anger prevailing against the government of India on the issue of farm laws. Since Punjab has majority population among the agriculture community, even the common man is affected by the farmers' agitation, he said, adding "this anger is impacting the vaccination drive.a He said his government is undertaking an extensive media campaign to address the mis-information regarding Covid and vaccination hesitancy. Ranking 18th in the country at present in terms of cases reported, Punjab is showing around eight per cent positivity, with an average of around 3,000 cases per days for the past 15 days, the Chief Minister apprised Gandhi. The number of cases is slightly stable, he pointed out, adding that "this shows that the steps taken in the last three weeks are in the right direction". Even in the graphs put up by <keyword id="46535" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Health-ministry">Health Ministry</keyword> in Prime Minister's review meeting, the "curve appears to be flattened over the past fortnight," he said, disclosing that the state currently has around 27,200 active cases with recovery rate of 87.1 per cent. Thanking Sonia Gandhi for giving the opportunity "to discuss and learn from each other on Covid management", the Chief Minister, however, said deaths are a concern for Punjab, with around 50-60 daily deaths with a little under two per cent Case Fatality Rate (CFR) in the second surge. Overall, CFR is 2.77 per cent for all reported cases since March 2020, he added. Pointing out that on April 9, a total of 3,459 persons tested positive out of 41,347 samples tested and 56 deaths were reported, he said the high death rate has been on account of late reporting to hospitals, high co-morbidity (non-communicable diseases). Also, Punjab has reported all its cases very faithfully, he added. Noting that high positivity is being seen in the younger population and as per reports received from the <keyword id="6421985" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="ncdc">NCDC</keyword> and the IGIB, more than 80 per cent samples have been found to be positive for the more contagious and virulent UK variant, the Chief Minister shared with the Congress President the various measures taken by his government to combat the spread. These, he said, included complete ban on political gatherings till April 39, imposition of night curfew across all districts from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m., restrictions on numbers in outdoor and indoor social gatherings and in cinema halls and malls, and closure of all educational institutions and anganwadi centres, with school exams being postponed.
