So what's in the post venture capital cards now that it is petty and faltering and evolving into unchecked neo feudalism?

In the present, anyone with all the answers is a dangerous fool.

My money is going on a long shot of recovering a m-type astroid. It risks everything by making all of Earth's present wealth meaningless, but it also has the potential to make the present into the stone age of silicon by comparison. If Musk could claim an m-type, he is basically defacto emperor of the entire world.
