I'm just surprised how quickly things are going badly. My company is trying to get a round of funding. If you asked me 8 weeks ago how it was going, I would've said "We're in a very strong position, hiring like crazy, tons of growth upcoming. We're going to get a ton of money." Now, it's "Bad. Who knows."
We're still going to get money, but it's likely 75% less than we were thinking 8 weeks ago. And we're a real company with a real product and demand, not web3 or whatever. I can't imagine how those companies are going to fare.
