Yep, most of the unicorn tech companies began with some misunderstood reckless visionary on the spectrum blowing everyone's money on their crazy idea and suffering endless criticism until they went live and proved themselves, after which the critics start falling over themselves to get a piece of the action. There is no orderly pathway to becoming a multi billion dollar disruptive tech company. There's alot of risk and alot of unconventional practice until there suddenly isn't.

Can't wait for the day it either goes supernova or implodes, because this last year or two has been torturous, I can't work out what I would prefer, having a stake in a $50billion global remote health monitoring and diagnostic company or being broke amd mever having to read another whiny post about Craig's ponytails and the single instance of switching from placement to debt/equity in half a decade of financial support at elevated prices ever again.
