Meta Platforms is planning to raise up to $95 billion through a series of stock offerings to fund its ambitious AI expansion plans. The initial phase of this fundraising effort includes the sale of $35 billion worth of common and preferred stock, as reported by both Blockonomi and Cryptopolitan.
Tech giants Nvidia, AMD, and Broadcom have shown non-binding interest in purchasing up to $5 billion of Meta's shares, according to both outlets. This interest is specifically in Meta's $22.5 billion common stock offering, which is part of the larger $35 billion initial raise.
The remaining $60 billion in stock sales is expected to be initiated no earlier than 2024, as stated by Blockonomi. This massive capital infusion is aimed at accelerating Meta's AI development, which is a key focus area for the company.
In the broader market context, the total crypto market cap stands at $2.76 trillion, with the overall market remaining relatively flat. 
Bitcoin has seen a slight 0.54% decline over the past 24 hours, while the Fear & Greed Index is at 50, indicating a neutral sentiment.
Meta's Total Value Locked (TVL) in the decentralized finance space is $120.81 million, representing a 21% decrease over the past week, according to DeFiLlama. This suggests that while Meta is making significant moves in the AI space, its presence in the DeFi sector is currently experiencing a downturn.
