YC has taken an amazing "niche" that the UK doesn't get. I've been looking seriously at seed/angel investment in the UK - and it's all so heavy, if we want £20k to take our product to market its impossible. It isn't the money hackers need it's the people, the marketing, the community. And if you're investing hundreds of thousands of pounds you can't have a portfolio of 100 companies you've invested in, so you can't have the great community. Hackers like other hackers. Not money, not employing dozens of people -- hacking!
