Snap jumps on new revenue stream, continued social media buzz

Snap jumped as high as 5% Monday after the social media company announced that it would be charging users for its Memories features after they reach 5 gigabytes of storage. Snapchat, which has clocked more than 1 trillion saved Memories on its platform, told TechCrunch the Memory Storage plans would range from $1.99 a month for 100 gigabytes of storage to $15.99 for 5-terabyte plans. The fees will be a new revenue stream for the company, whose ad revenue isn’t growing as fast as its peers’.

Snap rose more than 20% this month amid positive r/WallStreetBets chatter, buyout speculation, and increased investment by Saudi investor Prince Al Waleed bin Talal Al Saud. And the US spin-off of TikTok doesn’t seem to be taking the wind out of Snap’s sales.

SpaceX seals right to buy coding startup Cursor for $60 billion

SpaceX said today it is “working closely together” with fast-growing coding startup Cursor “to create the world’s best coding and knowledge work AI.” The post also said SpaceX would have the right to acquire Cursor later this year or make the startup “pay $10 billion for our work together.” The New York Times, citing people familiar with the matter, previously reported that the companies had agreed to an acquisition.

The news comes as SpaceX prepares for a blockbuster IPO and doubles down on AI, with a growing — if still fully aspirational — focus on space-based data infrastructure and computing.

Last month, when SpaceX hired two senior leaders from Cursor, CEO Elon Musk noted that xAI, which SpaceX acquired earlier this year, “was not built right first time around, so is being rebuilt from the foundations up.”
