Might not be any since there were only 8 as of 2015:

As of August 26, 2015:

Number of YC companies worth more than $1 billion: 8 [1]

Number of YC companies worth more than $100 million: >40

Yeah that's what I thought. Does it mean things have changed at YC? Maybe the selection is a bit over engineered missing out on the basic stuff.

It's only 4 years so it would still take time. Probably need another 2 years for things to grow that big.
