Y Combinator has invested in over 5000 startups with a total valuation of $600 billion. Out of these, just 4 companies—Stripe, Airbnb, Coinbase, and DoorDash accounts for ~$300 billion of the valuation. Fascinating, isn’t it?

This concentration is actually normal in venture portfolios, but people misinterpret what it means. The 'power law' distribution isn't a bug, it's a feature. What's interesting isn't that 4 companies make up half the value - it's that YC managed to get into ALL of them. Look at other accelerators from the same era: TechStars, 500 Startups, etc. None of them hit the same rate of mega-outcomes.

Yeah, that's how it works. One or 2 investments pay for all losses and makes generational wealth

Most people don't lack ideas. They're just too busy to notice them. Stillness isn't rest. It's strategy.
