Hahah we now get the same regarding our preseed at the end of 2023 (slide below) where investors that passed now say “Oh, if I’d know you were going to build thiiss…” I used to finish every pitch with this slide and say all compute is going to space once the launch cost hits a certain point. Some seem to have forgotten! For context, we were raising $2M at $10M cap SAFE and had at least 100 investors say no. Thanks @FinnMurphy12 for leading and @russelllong for being the first ‘yes’!

Many of the loudest voices in tech have no real beliefs, just a deep fervent need to be relevant at all times & at all costs. When the winds change so too will the beliefs. Desire to do what they want is for many subservient to desire for status and access.



@ThomasAlxDmy You don’t seem to understand that SpaceX will be worth more than the rest of Earth if we accomplish our goals
