So, Facebook has now raised, like, $2.3 billion in VC? Isn't that some sort of record?


For sure. At least as of about a year ago the record was somewhere around 1.3B total for Clear. So not only did they break the record for total investment, but they also raised more in a single round than anyone else had ever raised in total.

Curious that when breaking all the records they don't even have a explanation for why they're doing it. Perhaps they think the funding environment is going to change for the worse.
