How’d Sequoia Let Yuri Milner Grab this Sweetheart Y Combinator Deal?
- donaldc 16y agoI think the title is misleading. There's nothing, even now, preventing Sequoia from offering all YC startups the same deal, with the same terms.
- davidmathers 16y agoWe haven’t talked to Sequoia, and it’s possible the partners don’t agree that Milner and Conway’s deal is a no-brainer. Come on Sarah. Seriously. Not only does the post not tell me how Yuri outfoxed Sequoia, it doesn't even make the claim that Sequoia was outfoxed or that they even cared. Every sentence is hedged. But you know who might--It seems--it’s possible--Maybe Sequoia wouldn’t--Milner may have. This post actually made me a little angry. I feel like a fool who got hooked by headline bait and then had a minute of my life stolen from me.
