Here's what Alex got into this morning: Earnings Season Never Ends: Gitlab, Asana, UiPath, Docusign, Rent the Runway and others will report this week. Crypto Down Bad: Prices for major cryptoassets are flat this morning, while the crypto venture picture is looking up to some degree. Arm Sets IPO Range: Shares of Arm are expected to sell for $47 to $51 per share, according to the company.

The Catalyst Fund: The Africa-focused venture fund has reached a first close, and intends to invest in climate-focused startups on the continent. Elon Musk Is Mad And to close out, a new Chinese semiconductor fund is potentially coming, while India wrestles with net neutrality. Don’t forget that Equity is opening this year’s Disrupt.
