In fact, we wish we didn't know ourselves. But the cursed rumors are true, and we're duty bound to inform you that the Winklevoss twins, Cameron and Tyler, are indeed in a band, as footage of the twins tunelessly and unironically covering "Don't Stop Believin'" has confirmed. A quick glance at social media tells us that their band, called [Mars Junction](), isn't a secret side project. It seems that the Winklevii — [former Olympic rowers](), friends-turned-adversaries of Mark Zuckerberg [(as portrayed by Armie Hammer in *The Social Network*)](), and billionaire founders of [cryptocurrency and NFT startup Gemini]() — definitely want you to know about their "hard-hitting rock band," as Mars Junction is self-described in [each of their Instagram bios](), [each of their Twitter bios](), and across the band's multiple social media accounts, which include [Instagram](), [Twitter](), and [Tiktok](). Notably, they do not have a Facebook page. Tyler is lead vocals, Cameron jams out beside him on lead guitar. Are they good? Well, we're not music critics, so we'll let you decide for yourself. https://twitter.com/arch_nem/status/1535102592270929930?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1535102592270929930%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fnypost.com%2F2022%2F06%2F13%2Fwinklevoss-twins-cover-dont-stop-believin-days-after-laying-off-crypto-employees%2F ## Gemini Woes The towering Mars Junction bandmates were fairly early to the crypto game, launching Gemini in 2014. Digital currency and [NFT sales]() [turned them into billionaires](), though [their personal wealth]() and their company's viability have both been damaged by the [ongoing bitcoin crash](). Gemini recently [cut 10 percent of its employees]() — who, for some reason, [they call "astronauts"]() — in response to the market drop-off. "Today is a tough day, but one that will make Gemini better over the long run," the Winklevii [wrote in a message]() to their astronauts when the layoffs were announced. "Constraint is the mother of innovation and difficult times are a forcing function for focus, which is critical to the success of any startup." Neither brother has tweeted about the cryptocurrency fallout, but they sure are letting the people know about Mars Junction. You know what they say: lose billions, start a band. Tour dates [are in their Linktree](). **More on the bitcoin crash:** [*Class-Action Lawsuit Alleges Binance Misled Investores Over "Stablecoin"*]() ## Author At Futurism, I've reported extensively on the rise of AI as a cultural and business force shaping the media industry, and more broadly how those dynamics are changing how we all consume and share information and relate to one another. I'm also fascinated by public health policy and ethics, the role of emerging tech in politics and governance — and the powerful people and forces at those intersections — climate change, and the environment. My investigation on Sports Illustrated's use of AI-generated authors with fictional biographies won a 2024 Mirror Award for "Best Story on Media Coverage of Artificial Intelligence in Journalism and the Media" from Syracuse University's SI Newhouse School, I contributed to Niemen Lab's 2025 Predictions for Journalism series, and I've discussed my work for Futurism during appearances on NPR, CNN, the BBC, the CBC, and more. I grew up in rural Pennsylvania and attended the University of Massachusetts Amherst, where I played Division I field hockey for the Minutewomen as a midfielder. Since then, I've lived in New Orleans, Louisiana and Manhattan, New York. I spend my free time running, reading, perusing archival fashion, and searching for the world’s best negroni. I also have a debonair tuxedo cat, Westley, who's named after "The Princess Bride." ### Author social links [Bluesky]()
