[Thread] As post-IPO prices of some unicorns decline, “guaranteed” returns for late stage private investors, unable to sell shares for months, prove illusory  —  1) Investor fear and the absence – temporary or permanent – of the Vision Fund likely creates more attractive late stage opportunities vs. the last 5 years. Market is semi-frozen, deals are breaking, converts are taking a long time and there are good companies that need funding. https://twitter.com/…
