🎬 Free Joby — A Joby Weeks Movie

An inside look at prolonged prosecution, Bitcoin’s early days, and the personal cost of government overreach.

What happens when someone is punished before they are proven guilty?

Accused of running a crypto Ponzi scheme, entrepreneur Joby Weeks spends six years under house arrest without trial. Directed by Mikki Willis, Free Joby follows Weeks’ personal ordeal while tracing Bitcoin’s early days, government overreach, and the human cost of prolonged prosecution.

What investment is rudimentary for billionaires but ‘revolutionary’ for 70,571+ investors entering 2026?

Imagine this. You open your phone to an alert. It says, “you spent $236,000,000 more this month than you did last month.”

If you were the top bidder at Sotheby’s fall auctions, it could be reality.

Sounds crazy, right? But when the ultra-wealthy spend staggering amounts on blue-chip art, it’s not just for decoration.

The scarcity of these treasured artworks has helped drive their prices, in exceptional cases, to thin-air heights, without moving in lockstep with other asset classes.

The contemporary and post war segments have even outpaced the S&P 500 overall since 1995.*

Now, over 70,000 people have invested $1.2 billion+ across 500 iconic artworks featuring Banksy, Basquiat, Picasso, and more.

How? You don’t need Medici money to invest in multimillion dollar artworks with Masterworks.

Thousands of members have gotten annualized net returns like 14.6%, 17.6%, and 17.8% from 26 sales to date.
