1/n Neuralink. What sets them apart, beyond their based team, is the way they go about hardware. They build both the robotic electrode inserter, and the packaged sensor device. High yield surgery, done by a robot. They’re likely the most advanced BCI company in the world, now having tested on 2 human patients.

3/n Blackrock Neurotech, branch of a $10 trillion AUM behemoth - 5x the crypto market cap - develops invasive sensors allowing users to control computers. Their BCI reportedly has 30k patient-days of data and 100+ peer-reviewed papers. Though, unlike Neuralink, the sensor is wired outside the skull.

4/n Tether Evo, the VC arm of the 3rd largest cryptocurrency, invested $200 million in Blackrock Neurotech. Could signal intent to bridge finance and BCIs, or simply an investment into promising tech. https://tether.io/news/tether-takes-strategic-stake-in-leading-brain-computer-interface-company-blackrock-neurotech/
