YC has just closed a new $8.25 million fund
I'm hoping we'll eventually see some experimentation with the model, now that they have more money to work with.I've always believed there's room for a YC-like company to do slightly bigger investments. Instead of $17k for 2 founders, it would be $80k for 2 founders. That way they could attract people with higher cost of living/high paying jobs (who would hopefully tend to be more successful due to more experience/connections/stability)
