What's confusing to me is their 'thanks' to investors.

I'm not clear that one _can_ raise money from investors, and then wholesale just decide to leave as a team. At the very least just to fulfill fiduciary duty, the company should be listed as 'for sale' and go on the block, even if just on ebay.

Some guesses:

a) Acqui-hire in the works with money for early stage investors

b) serious, serious, serious team problems / investor problem, so toxic that they can't be solved in the current structure

c) 'investors' is like mom and dad, so no big deal.

Anyway, best of luck to the team, and I'm hoping for something big and exciting next!



We never took money -- just met with quite a few different investors over the course of a few months. They gave us invaluable advice.


Got it. Hope you have some good things in your future!
