Stacking convertible notes can lead to unintended consequences at exit. Unconverted notes are shielded from dilution. This is a must-read (with a suggested solution) by @alexiskold. alexiskold.net/2018/06/27/th…

European and Asian VCs and angels (and those interested in investing in either/both), I have something similar. DM me for more. Rising tides lifting boats and all that... teapawt.net/ianrountree/status/998… – at Queens, NY
Constantly awed by willingness of #VC3point0 to share at a level that would shock traditional VCs. The next generation of VC is far more collaborative, friendly, & impassioned than the jaded/bored/egoist/complacent/fancy VC establishment. Careful 2.0, our kindness may kill you 😈
