Great read.

Like you pointed out rightly, these fundraising stories are what people 'want' and it is in sync with the prevalent narratives around the industry. Inevitably, this phase will pass and the demand for more angles to industry reporting will increase, it's only a matter of time.

Personally, i am of the opinion that this 'fixation' on fundraising and the money side of it serves a purpose in the short-term as it paints a picture of a thriving and viable ecosystem. The platforms you have highlighted will have their day surely, it's already on the horizon.

Interesting. This piece prompts me to keep an eye on the situation here in Europe. My intuition is that you've identified a universal obsession with the investment side of tech.
