- chii 6y agoif YC doesn't invest, won't that be a signal that they don't believe the 7% is worth it? it makes it hard for startups that would need more money to prove their profitability to lose out on new rounds, or have to give up more for those rounds (as investors will need better incentive to invest without the YC signal).
