YC startups that would have raised at $8M cap in 2017-2020 are today raising at $20M cap. In part this is due to the larger YC investment and MFN, but it also feels like these companies are being given bad advice and remain in denial that we’re not in 2021 anymore. This is

Series A and B are far better risk/reward than Seed right now IMO. Given Seeds are at ATH valuations while As and Bs have gone back to historic multiples (assuming you don’t have AI in your name!), we would rather wait a round or two and pay up a bit for far more traction.

The “scandal” here is that entrepreneurship is massively value creating and that Peter Thiel is one of the best founders/investors in history. Instead focus on the silly rules that Average Joe can YOLO on Robinhood/crypto but is not “sophisticated” enough to invest in startups.

@wolfejosh This isn’t costly at all though! You are a US fund that invests in the US with US investors fighting to give you money. You were never going to take Chinese money or invest in China in the first place.

We know a thing or two about what it takes for startups to raise a Series A nowadays 😃 And as mentioned, raising with no traction at at $20M does not leave much margin of safety to raise strong follow-on financing. It’s not 2021 anymore.

Talk without skin in the game is cheap. In some ways it’s worse than silence bc it lets you *pretend* that you’re doing something and moralize / talk down to others.

It's absolutely insane how they are intentionally omitting Tesla. The carmaker that SINGLEHANDEDLY pivoted us towards an EV future. The company that has 6X the market cap of Ford and GM COMBINED. This is 1984-type stuff here.
