What founders sell to investors in each venture round.
Generally seeing dilution fall slightly in early stage (or flat from 2022) while rising a bit in later ones.
Primary rounds only, no funny business with extensions/bridges/etc.

One subtlety of startup valuations is they're based on the probability of an eventual huge success, not just extrapolating current traction.
You're not calculating discounted cash flows; you're estimating the likelihood of a startup winning a market & the size of that market.
Paul Graham@paulg
A fact that will alarm many people but is nonetheless true: startup valuations are bets by professionals that the actual value of the company is significantly higher.

Founders beware

Barbarians at the Gate - Venture Edition. I've asked two leading startup lawyers to help me put together a detailed review of the arsenal of aggressive legal terms that VC's may want to use in a crisis, so founders know what to look out for. @fdestin/vc-terms-return-of-the-barbarians-77149fe2be88" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@fdestin/vc-te…
