I believe the mention of 83b election by the author is a red herring. afaik 83b only applies to recently acquired stock, not options.

- sokoloff 5y agoMany early stage companies will have early exercisable options (wherein you can exercise the options [paying the strike price] prior to the grant vesting, meaning you forfeit the shares if you leave before vesting). On those, you can do an early exercise and make an 83b election.
