Resolves Yes if:
A binding purchase/merger agreement between both parties is signed into writing. Even if eventually blocked by courts for whatever reason. Resolves to credible mainstream reporting of such a deal being finalised.
Doesn't qualify for Yes:
-Acquires the leadership and senior staff, but not the company.
-Term sheet level agreement that isn't yet binding (eg. OpenAi and Windsurf).
Comment companies that I should add.

We got over 100 new traders with a targeted boost. A topic Manifold seems interested in.
