when investors will buy anything that whiffs of growth and executives can raise debt for cheap and raise secondaries easily no one on either side is exactly clamoring for a "long term" focused exchange right now.
There are some investors and companies that tune out the noise and try to make lasting change, making a dent in the universe, that kind of thing. I think they could use financial infrastructure to support their ambitions. Seems pretty simple to me
we live in a market when there’s a dozen SPACs listed every week and a company like Nikola that doesn’t even have a functioning product has a valuation of $20B. liquidity and support from central bankers have naturally made investors more patient and willing to ignore short term road bumps.
