January's Five Best Blogs

 

Among the best pieces we’ve read recently (and yes, this is a pretty liberal use of “recent”) are: Dan Primack on Unicorns and the market for seed funding; a cogent Voxplainer on microgrids that should be read in conjunction with Foundry’s Seth Levine explanation on why the Boulder Muncipal initiative to create a local utility is bad for renewable energy, as well as this longer piece on the Doomsday preparations of the uber wealthy. You are only in a bubble when you deny the bubble exists, so a pre-bubble piece on hacking Coinbase, and for you sports fans, a piece in England’s Guardian newspaper on why so many NFL and NBA games end in disarray (hint, we still don’t know what constitutes a “catch”). Enjoy!
