This article makes no such claim. It is about whether or not investors knew.
- Jaymz87 4y agoInvestors probably shouldn't be chucking $100m+ at startups without doing the bare minimum of DD if that's the point of contention here...
- esafak 4y agoYou can't pin it on investors, when founders deliberately schedule fundraising rounds tightly not to give investors time to think. This benefits the founder, but if they pull a fast one, investors will lose trust and be less lenient towards the next founder. Trust is a pillar of the venture capital ecosystem. Don't say buyer beware.
