It\u2019s been more than a minute since Tesla went public, but the EV company was inescapable on TechCrunch this week. From layoffs to pricing changes and more, it was a week dyed deeply in Tesla colors, so we had to chat through the latest.\n\nBut that was just one element of what we got into on Equity this week. We also dug into Mary Ann\u2019s reporting about Ramp\u2019s latest round \u2014 and up valuation \u2014 that fit neatly next to Rippling\u2019s own impending fundraise. If you are handling money, it\u2019s a good time to be a startup.\n\nThe team also dug into Cherub, which wants to connect investors and founders, Maven Ventures\u2019 consumer investing push, and touched on what Mercury is up to. All told, we were fortunate to have Kirsten Korosec along with us this week given the sheer volume, and diversity of news to chew through.
