It seems like YC welcomes Ukrainian defense tech teams to apply. This is great news! 5 days remaining, apply here: ycombinator.com Jared Friedman aka @snowmaker was our mentor at YC'W16 when @Petcube was going through the program. Applying to YC was one of the best decisions in my life. Highly recommend it.

@SparkMailApp Just got it! You?

Big thread on startup fundraising on SAFEs and Convertible Notes - all data from before any priced rounds. Pre-seed, "seed on SAFEs", etc. Data from more than 100,000 SAFEs signed by Carta companies since 2020. Lets go

Як же я люблю zero-inbox

@novikoff The no-button-interface reminds me of something...

@nick_havryliak @assisterr @ethanfr Totally support it, for First-time-founders it's easier to communicate and work with angels at the beginning, than with VCs who have all their own rules of the game :)

Bootstrapping => Angels round Initially, we were bootstrapping @assisterr since the end of 2022 as I thought it would be too complicated to handle small checks from angels while we were not ready for VC money at that time. Only last month I start accepting checks from amazing angels all around the world: Miami, Denver, London, New York, SF, Barcelona (in progress😉) and I found that angel’s money are much more than just $$$. Angels are not VCs, they invest personal & limited resources in founders they believe in and like. It’s a kind of sympathy you have for people you know little but want them to succeed. Yesterday, I met @ethanfr - Head of DevRel at @ParticleNtwrk and one of our earliest supporters who was providing feedback on a product, then was our early user and finally joined us as an angel after the ETH Denver⚡️ Long story short: don’t try to skip any steps of your founder's journey as you might miss amazing people as well and end up with just pragmatic VC money.

@YarBirzool @Jenko_kov @atex1105 Don't even ask

@Jenko_kov @atex1105 Бро, навіть не нагадуй. Аля точно погодилася зустрічатися не через зовнішність :D

Дата, підпис. В такому мені щось умудрилась роздивитись @atex1105. Найбільша загадка в наших стосунках, так думаю.
