Welcome to @garrytan, CEO of Y Combinator! 

He’s kindly agreed to do an AMA. Reply with your questions. :)

why does YC and HN hate crypto? And please don‘t respond with „we love crypto“ or whatever. HN mod capacity is downstream of YC. Users and operators dislike it

HN is really a totally organic community. 

YC is interesting because in full transparency the capital structure for new crypto startups is pretty competitive because there is just so much money that is also not valuation sensitive. Also the outliers are bigger and there are fewer of them.

I think the nocoiners might just be upset and have sour grapes. The knock on crypto is that it is so much money that distorts the markets. Even your most stalwart crypto supporters would probably admit that is true.
