San Francisco, Aug 16 (Ians) After crypto financial services and investment management firm Galaxy Digital terminated the 1.2 billion acquisition of BitGo, the digital asset trust company has called the decision “absurd” and demanded 100 million in damages from Galaxy Digital.
The proposed acquisition was the global crypto industry’s first 1 billion deal, which fell off amid the global crypto meltdown.
BitGo said late on Monday that it intends to hold Galaxy Digital legally responsible for its improper decision to terminate the merger agreement.
“It was not scheduled to expire until December 31, 2022, at the earliest and to not pay the 100 million reverse break fee it had promised back in March 2022 in order to induce BitGo to extend the merger agreement,” said the company.
BitGo has hired litigation powerhouse Quinn Emanuel to take appropriate legal action.
“The attempt by Mike Novogratz (CEO) and Galaxy Digital to blame the termination on BitGo is absurd,” said R Brian Timmons,...

With an impressive leading haul this year of 35 Oscar nominations (a streamer record), Netflix apparently wanted more and just pushed that number to 36, saying Thursday that it has acquired the Live Action Short nominee Two Distant Strangers.
The film, written by Emmy winner Travon Free and directed by Free and Martin Desmond Roe, revolves around the repeated attempts by cartoonist Carter James (played by rapper Joey Bada$$) to get home to his dog as he is thwarted by a recurring deadly encounter that forces him — in a twist on movies from Groundhog Day to Palm Springs — to relive the same awful day over and over again (check out the trailer above).
Having seen the film earlier this year it could not be more timely, especially in the light of events surrounding the death of George Floyd and numerous others in the Black community. With the deal, Two Distant Strangers begins streaming April 9 on Netflix.

Netflix just tacked on another Oscar nomination to its already record-setting haul. The streamer announced that it has acquired worldwide rights to the Academy Award-nominated live action short film “Two Distant Strangers” from directors Travon Free and Martin Desmond Roe. “Two Distant Strangers” will be debut on Netflix on April 9.
“When we set out to create this short in the middle of the simultaneous pandemic and social justice crises, we didn’t know what to expect,” Free and Roe said in a statement. “But in just five days, we pulled off the nearly impossible to make this incredible film. And all of us have been so filled with gratitude to see so many people responding to this story of resilience and perseverance. ‘Two Distant Strangers’ tackles a tough subject for everyone but in an effort to forge a new direction in the conversation.

Michael Novogratz, billionaire and former Goldman Sachs partner, had some tough words for his fellow billionaires who fear Elizabeth Warren’s wealth tax.“You’re not victims, you’re the richest people in the world,” he said in an interview with Bloomberg. “How in God’s name do you feel like a victim?”
Novogratz, who is now investing in cryptocurrency as founder of Galaxy Investment Partners, spoke about the Democratic candidate’s plans to tax the rich to fund government programs such as universal child care and student debt forgiveness.
