Microsoft Corporation co-founder Bill Gates and legendary Indian Cricket player Sachin Tendulkar last week played a lighthearted game of "Crennis," sparking playful banter on social media and an invitation to Roger Federer and Satya Nadella to join in.
What Happened: In a video shared by Tendulkar on X, formerly Twitter, saying "Sport teaches us teamwork, life demands the same. Crennis was fun, but the real action is brewing with Sachin Tendulkar Foundation &amp; Gates Foundation."
The video features Gates joking, "I thought we were playing tennis," as Tendulkar corrects him, "Bill, I said Crennis—a mix of cricket and tennis."
The two go on to play a jovial match on a tennis court, with Tendulkar using the street cricket rule "one tip, one hand" to call Gates out.

Gates is later seen reading a fictional Rules of Crennis book as the duo mixes cricket strokes with tennis serves, wrapping up their game with Mumbai's iconic street food, vada pav.

The cryptocurrency market rose for the second week in a row, with meme coins and decentralized finance-based tokens powering the surge.
What happened: Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>)-based Fartcoin topped the gainers list with an astounding 83% rally over the previous week.&nbsp;
The unconventional meme token hit a 5-week high of $0.56 on Sunday, blasting past the $550 million market capitalization.
That said, the rally might not sustain itself for long. Influential cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez spotted a sell signal for the coin on the TD Sequential Indicator, indicating a potential pause or correction.

Kai-Fu Lee, the former head of Alphabet Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google China and founder of AI startup 01.AI, says the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/02/37179799/elon-musk-taunts-sam-altman-and-openai-over-open-image">rise of open-source AI</a> models like DeepSeek has exposed an existential risk to OpenAI's business—and he's pivoting his company accordingly.
What Happened: On Saturday, Lee shared a clip from his interview with Bloomberg, in which he stated that the AI industry is consolidating around a few foundational models—and that open source is emerging as the inevitable winner.
"In both U.S. and China, the pre-training of a giant model has consolidated… it's become clear that open-source will be the winner," Lee said. He added that closed model companies like OpenAI "got shocked when they saw a model as good" as DeepSeek's.

Lee also pointed out the dramatic cost disparity between the two approaches.
&nbsp;"OpenAI's cost was $7 billion in 2024. DeepSeek probably operated with 2% of that."
He questioned the long-term sustainability of OpenAI's business model, especially when competing against open-source projects that offer similar quality at a fraction of the cost.
"With that kind of formidable competitor, I think Sam Altman is probably not sleeping well," he added.

Why It's Important: The open source vs. closed source AI model debates have also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39925842/elon-musk-agrees-with-arch-rival-mark-zuckerberg-after-meta-ceo-slams-closed-providers-like-openai-f">drawn support from key figures</a> like Elon Musk and Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) CEO Mark Zuckerberg, who have both voiced support for more transparent development in AI.
Last year, Google introduced Gemma, a new family of open-source AI models. It is based on the same research and technology behind Gemini, Google&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/02/43683647/ex-google-ceo-eric-schmidt-warns-if-west-doesnt-get-its-act-together-on-open-source-ai-china-will-become-the-leader-if-we-dont-do-something">proprietary closed-source AI model</a> that powers the Gemini chatbot (formerly Bard).
In January, DeepSeek's open-source models, including its R1 release, disrupted the market—<a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44350873/nvidia-faces-new-ai-challenge-as-chinese-start-up-unveils-framework-to-cut-reliance-on-its-gpus">triggering a $593 billion</a> selloff in Nvidia Corporation's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) market cap.
Last month, <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43878215/chinas-deepseek-to-open-source-key-code-repositories-in-a-bid-for-full-transparency">DeepSeek announced its decision</a> to open-source five of its code repositories. For many tech companies, open-sourcing code is a major decision, as these repositories often contain crucial intellectual property.
This approach stands in stark contrast to OpenAI, which has maintained a closed-source strategy.
Despite mounting competition from DeepSeek, ChatGPT remains widely popular. According to OpenAI's Chief Operating Officer, Brad Lightcap, the platform saw a 33% increase in users since December and now boasts over 400 million weekly active users as of February.

Former Google China Head Bets Big On DeepSeek: 01.AI Founder Explains Why 'Sam Altman Is Probably Not Sleeping Well'

As Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) stock soars 20.97% year-to-date, Harvard professor and economist Jason Furman has delivered a measured critique of CEO Alex Karp&#8216;s new book, arguing it prioritizes cultural solutions over concrete policy recommendations.
What Happened: Furman wrote on X that &#8220;The Technological Republic&#8221; by Karp and Palantir Office of the CEO Nicholas Zamiska &#8220;advocates closer link between government and tech to solve big problems from defense to climate,&#8221; but criticized that &#8220;their solution rests on culture, is contemptuous of markets and disinterested in government policy.&#8221;
In his detailed review, Furman described the book as &#8220;perhaps the most cultural argument I have read about what has gone wrong with big tech and how to fix it.&#8221; He noted Karp and Zamiska want Silicon Valley to mirror their approach: patriotic Americans supporting national interests rather than focusing solely on consumer products.
The book argues that &#8220;the software industry should rebuild its relationship with government&#8221; to address pressing challenges, but Furman found himself &#8220;waiting for policy solutions&#8221; that never materialized. Instead, the authors offer cultural shifts as the primary remedy.
&#8220;I find myself in sympathy with many of their cultural arguments,&#8221; Furman acknowledged but questioned their &#8220;disdain for a classical liberal conception of capitalism&#8221; and lack of concrete governmental policy proposals.

Price Action: Palantir closed at $90.96 on Friday, up 4.09% for the day.

Palantir CEO Alex Karp's 'Technological Republic' Vision Faces Harvard Economist's Critique: 'Contemptuous Of Markets'

Renowned economist&nbsp;Peter Schiff&nbsp;expressed doubts on Saturday that China would engage in a Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) buying competition with the U.S., a view previously espoused by Senator&nbsp;Cynthia Lummis&nbsp;(R-WY).
What Happened:&nbsp;Schiff took to X, questioning the <a href="https://x.com/CynthiaMLummis/status/1882123046712201663">narrative </a>of a potential Bitcoin &#8216;arms race&#8217; between the U.S. and China. 
&#8220;In January, Cynthia Lummis said&nbsp;that she thought China would&nbsp;get into the equivalent of&nbsp;an arms race with the&nbsp;U.S. over which nation could&nbsp;buy the most Bitcoin. I&nbsp;doubt it, especially if China&nbsp;was smart enough to have&nbsp;sold all of its Bitcoin&nbsp;during that month,&#8221; Schiff wrote.
The Bitcoin critic referenced a January report that detailed the Asian giant&#8217;s potential sale of nearly $20 billion in seized Bitcoin, although the claims have yet to be confirmed.

Bitcoin Arms Race: Peter Schiff Doubts Cynthia Lummis' Theory That China Wants To Take On US — 'Smart Enough To Have Sold'

As SpaceX continues to dominate <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/space/25/02/44039545/chinas-tiangong-space-station-to-host-first-non-chinese-astronaut-in-coming-years-pakistan-selected-report">the global space race</a>, Chinese startups are accelerating efforts to catch up—with backing from President Xi Jinping and bold predictions that they'll surpass Elon Musk's company by 2030.
What Happened: At least six <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/02/36948275/chinas-orienspace-aims-to-rival-elon-musks-spacex-with-reusable-rockets-by-2026">reusable Chinese rockets</a> are expected to launch this year, signaling a turning point for China's commercial space sector, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/world/china/chinas-own-elon-musks-are-racing-to-catch-up-to-spacex-74b02a95?mod=hp_lista_pos3">reported</a> the Wall Street Journal.
LandSpace Technology became the first company in the world to launch a rocket powered by liquid oxygen and methane in 2023—before SpaceX used the same fuel for its Starship rocket.
Deep Blue Aerospace, founded by a former state-owned rocket engineer, plans to test a reusable booster this year and aims to launch space tourism flights by 2027, selling tickets for over $100,000 each.
Huo believes Chinese firms can match or surpass SpaceX within five years.

Since 2014, China has encouraged private companies to enter the space sector, which was previously dominated by state-owned enterprises (SOEs).
Lincoln Hines, an assistant professor at Georgia Tech said, &#8220;If China continues to have this bloated state-driven industry, it can do these enormous feats like going to the far side of the moon or placing humans in space, but can it innovate and compete with the United States?&#8221;
Why It's Important: SpaceX currently dominates with reusable rockets and over 7,000 Starlink satellites. Since Musk's company is constantly advancing its technology, China faces an uphill battle in closing the gap, the report noted, citing experts.
China had some setbacks also, including a failed launch by the private company Space Pioneer last year that led to damage in a local area.
In a rare meeting with tech CEOs and executives in February, the Chinese President underscored the need for a competitive private sector to foster growth and innovation—a strategy now extending to the space industry.
China is already competing for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/10/35528955/china-hopes-to-find-its-own-spacex-pledges-financial-support-to-space-startups">international satellite launch</a> contracts. In November 2023, a Chinese state-owned company launched a satellite for Oman.
China has two competitors to SpaceX's Starlink <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40210259/china-challenges-elon-musks-spacex-starlink-with-its-own-internet-satellites-plans-to-deploy-648-sat">satellite internet network</a>—Guowang and Thousand Sails.&nbsp;
Last week, SpaceX became <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/25/03/44436944/spacex-dethrones-tesla-as-elon-musks-most-valuable-asset-for-the-first-time-since-2019-report">Musk&#8217;s most valuable asset</a>, surpassing Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) as the latter's stock faced a downturn.
SpaceX&#8217;s Dragon capsule has also recently <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/general/space/25/03/44391875/sunita-williams-butch-wilmore-return-to-earth-on-spacex-dragon-capsule-after-286-days-in-space-nasa-astronauts-to-undergo-health-checks">completed a successful mission</a>, bringing NASA astronauts back to Earth after an extended stay on the International Space Station.

Elon Musk's SpaceX Can Be Beaten By 2030, Says Chinese Rival As Xi Jinping Bets Big On Reusable Rockets

Official Trump (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">TRUMP</a>) dramatically surged Sunday after none other than President Donald Trump promoted the meme coin on social media.
What happened: The Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>)-based token ripped over 11% within an hour after Trump posted from his Truth Social account, "I LOVE $TRUMP — SO COOL!!! The Greatest of them all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="606" height="147" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/23222823/Screenshot-2025-03-24-at-11.28.01.png" alt="" class="wp-image-837453" style="width:920px;height:auto" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/23222823/Screenshot-2025-03-24-at-11.28.01.png 606w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/23222823/Screenshot-2025-03-24-at-11.28.01-300x73.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 606px) 100vw, 606px" /></figure>

However, as with the two-month-old coin&#8217;s previous swings, it couldn&#8217;t sustain the rally for long, plummeting back into the $11 zone.
That said, TRUMP remained the market's third-biggest gainer in the last 24 hours, rising over 7%. Moreover, its trading volume skyrocketed 288% to $1.22 billion, becoming the most traded meme coin on the day.
The fluctuating price action became the undoing of an investor who previously profited from the meme coin.
According to Lookonchain, the whale scooped $5 million in TRUMP immediately after Trump's Truth Social post. However, they sold an hour later, losing $207,000.
The investors had previously walked away with nearly $108 million in profit betting on TRUMP.

Moreover, since its market peak at $75.35, nearly $65 billion in fully diluted market valuation has been eroded.
Price Action: At the time of writing, TRUMP was exchanging hands at $11.58, up 7% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.&nbsp;

Trump Meme Coin Spikes, Retreats After POTUS Takes To Truth Social For 'Greatest of Them All' Post — Whale Takes Losses

Allianz Chief Economic Advisor Mohamed El-Erian outlined a packed week ahead for global markets, with inflation readings, central bank activity, and international developments taking center stage.
What Happened: The Federal Reserve&#8217;s preferred inflation measure, February Personal Consumption Expenditures data, tops the U.S. economic calendar amid ongoing stagflation concerns. Markets will closely analyze this report following Fed Chairman Jerome Powell&#8216;s decision to keep interest rates <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/03/44403637/fed-holds-rates-while-growth-forecasts-slip-inflation-projections-rise">unchanged at 4.25%-4.50% last week</a>, despite projecting two rate cuts in 2025.
&#8220;The week ahead for the global economy and markets is packed with data releases,&#8221; El-Erian wrote Sunday on X. U.S. investors should also monitor durable goods data, trade, the final University of Michigan consumer sentiment, and multiple speeches from Fed officials.
Key Fed events include Governor Michael Barr's speech on small business lending on Monday and banking policy on Friday. 
European markets face their own catalysts with the UK&#8217;s Spring fiscal statement and inflation data, Germany&#8217;s IFO business confidence index, and Eurozone PMI figures all due for release.

Mohamed El-Erian Says Week Ahead 'Packed' With Data For Global Markets As Fed's Inflation Measure, Central Bank Moves, And China's Outlook Dominate

Jeremy Clarkson has declared a long-awaited victory over Elon Musk after 17 years. The former &#8220;Top Gear&#8221; host had previously faced a lawsuit from Musk following a critical review of a Tesla vehicle in 2008.
What Happened: Clarkson&#8217;s review described the car as unreliable, expensive, and poorly handling. Musk sued for defamation, claiming bias against electric vehicles, but ultimately lost the case and its appeal. Clarkson humorously expressed relief at the recent backlash against Tesla, noting that eco-conscious individuals who once praised Musk are now turning against his cars, <a href="https://www.thetimes.com/comment/columnists/article/seventeen-years-after-that-nice-mr-musk-sued-me-victory-is-mine-z6m5lq90t">according</a> to The Sunday Times.
Clarkson wrote, &#8221; I'd love to remind all you Tesla drivers that I warned you 17 years ago that no good would come of your buying choice. But you didn't listen. You chose to believe Mr Musk.&#8221;
Reports indicate that Tesla vehicles are being vandalized globally, with incidents in Belfast, Germany, and Las Vegas. The company&#8217;s stock valuation has reportedly dropped from $1.7 trillion to $800 billion, impacting Musk&#8217;s ability to fund ventures like SpaceX. Clarkson remarked on the irony of Musk being criticized by those who once idolized him, stating, &#8220;I was always scrupulously fair with my car reviews. Musk claimed I wasn't. And this is his payback.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Tesla insurance <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44432174/tesla-owners-might-have-to-pay-more-for-insurance-amid-a-surge-in-attacks-on-elon-musk-led-ev-giants-vehicles-expert">premiums could increase</a> as vandalism against its vehicles surges, driven by backlash against Musk. Incidents like arson and shootings have raised concerns among insurance experts, who warn that comprehensive coverage rates may rise if the trend continues.
The long-standing tension between Jeremy Clarkson and Elon Musk has resurfaced amidst changing public perceptions of Tesla. This comes at a time when Tesla&#8217;s stock has seen significant fluctuations, impacting its market valuation. The recent backlash against Tesla vehicles, as highlighted by Clarkson, underscores a shift in sentiment among environmentally conscious consumers who once championed Musk&#8217;s vision.
Adding to the discourse, fellow former &#8220;Top Gear&#8221; host James May recently shared his thoughts on Tesla&#8217;s Cybertruck, describing it as &#8220;too big&#8221; for his liking, yet <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40849409/former-top-gear-host-james-may-thinks-a-vehicle-the-size-of-a-fiat-panda-but-styled-like-tesla-cyber">admitting a certain appeal</a>.

What Happened: The apex cryptocurrency rose to an intraday high of $86,632.21 in the overnight hours, while Ethereum wiggled in the $2,000 region for most of the day.
The spike comes after Bo Hines, the executive director of the President's Council of Advisers on Digital Assets, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/03/44450232/white-house-says-gold-reserves-may-be-used-to-purchase-bitcoin">suggested in an interview </a>that the U.S. could capitalize on the gains from its gold holdings to purchase more Bitcoin.
The two blue-chip currencies have demonstrated divergent trajectories in March. While Bitcoin has gained 1.94% since the month began, its younger sibling has plunged over 10%.&nbsp;
Additionally, Bitcoin's market dominance has remained at 60%, while Ethereum's share has shrunk from 9.4% to 8.6%.
The spike resulted in the liquidation of $143 million from the cryptocurrency market in the past 24 hours, with short liquidations accounting for $91 million.
Bitcoin's Open Interest surged 5.43% in the last 24 hours. Interestingly, the majority of futures traders were positioned short as of this writing, according to the Long/Short ratio, suggesting that a pullback might be in the works.
The market sentiment remained in the "Fear" region, according to the Crypto Fear and Greed Index.

Another well-known trader, Crypto Feras, stated that Ethereum must retake $2150 as support; otherwise, the recent spike would be considered a bearish retest.
"A successful reclaim can ultra send it towards $2.8 and $4k as well, but it needs to happen first. Otherwise, $1539 is next," the trader predicted.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Rise As White House Official Hints At Gold-Powered BTC Purchases: Analyst Says Watch Out For These Key BTC Levels

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz has clarified his recent comments about Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) stock, calling his remarks a joke after facing sharp criticism from investors who pointed out Minnesota&#8217;s significant holdings in the company.
What Happened: Speaking at an <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32WRXEWQV30">event</a> in New York, Walz acknowledged his prior statements about checking Tesla&#8217;s declining stock for a &#8220;boost&#8221; amid Elon Musk&#8216;s involvement with President Donald Trump administration&#8217;s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
&#8220;I have to be careful about being a smart&#x2A;&#x2A;s. I was making a joke,&#8221; Walz said. &#8220;These people have no sense of humor.&#8221;
The governor&#8217;s initial comments drew immediate backlash, particularly from &#8220;Shark Tank&#8221; investor Kevin O&#8217;Leary, who called the remarks &#8220;beyond stupid&#8221; given Minnesota&#8217;s State Board of Investments reported ownership of 1.6 million Tesla <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/03/44429717/kevin-oleary-blasts-tim-walzs-dig-at-tesla-stock-hes-mocking-a-company-his-own-pension-fund-invests-in">shares in its retirement fund</a>.
&#8220;That poor guy didn&#8217;t check his portfolio and his own pension plan for his state,&#8221; O&#8217;Leary said in a CNN segment. &#8220;What&#8217;s the matter with that guy? He doesn&#8217;t check the well-being of his own constituents? What a bozo.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Walz, who ran alongside former Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election, has emerged as a vocal critic of both Musk and the Trump administration. During his New York appearance, he criticized Musk&#8217;s wealth management.
&#8220;If I&#8217;m the richest man in the world, I&#8217;m like out on the streets handing out money. It&#8217;d be fun as hell just to help people out,&#8221; Walz said. &#8220;Not this guy.&#8221;
Tesla shares have struggled in 2025, dropping 34.43% year-to-date amid concerns over vehicle demand, pricing pressures, and a reported $1.4 billion <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44410602/elon-musks-tesla-faces-1-4-billion-discrepancy-in-capital-expenditure-report">discrepancy in capital expenditures</a>. The company&#8217;s market valuation has fallen from $1.7 trillion to under $800 billion.
