After reading the various viewpoints posted, here are my thoughts. Jeremy sounds a bit greedy, and probably won't get 50% compensation, but probably will get a significant amount since it sounds like he wasn't dealt with fairly through the whole process if his claims hold up. However, based on Sam Altman's actions as depicted, this makes me not to ever want to work for a YC company, and I've been approached by plenty at various stages (early to late). With an investor that wants to resolve things in bad faith, I cannot trust that I wouldn't ever potentially get screwed the same way, all because an investor believes "That person does not deserve compensation, so we'll operate shadily to make it end that way." It makes all the talk about nice people and such from YC leaders sound as fake as the reputation of many tech industry people in the Bay Area is touted to be.
