- solumos 9mo agoYou generally want to IPO (and fundraise in general) at the most favorable terms possible — not when there are market headwinds.

- nmfisher 9mo agoI always wanted to crunch the numbers but never got around to it, so I'm glad someone actually went and did it. YC company IPOs always smelled like pump-and-dump than a true liquidity/fundraising event, and if those numbers are correct, I was right. Or to put it another way, if someone asks "should I buy IPO shares in a YC company", the answer is "no".
