On: Is YC a Monopoly?

> Their portfolio boasts over $400B in value

I don't understand - YC doesn't own these companies does it? They just have a minor 7% investment? So YC isn't worth $400B. What is it worth?

This doesn’t answer your question, but it helps narrow it down. I can easily believe a Y Combinator market valuation of $400B based on known exits alone.
