@AOC You forgot to mention the billions in revenue Airbnb unlocked by allowing homeowners to rent out rooms for extra income. The billions consumers save by not having to overpay for hotels. You built your career leveraging the technology and have contributed to their wealth.

Congrats @rrhoover!

Announcing Weekend Fund IV, backed by operators and founders (and maybe you).

When we raised Weekend Fund III, we did something different.

Toward the end of our raise, we announced the fund in public and accepted applications from LPs.

Our goal was to make early-stage venture more accessible and align ourselves with an army of operators and founders to help us and the startups we back.

Over 1,000 people expressed interest to join and hundreds did, but there was a problem. Legally, only accredited investors could participate as an LP. Accreditation laws are well-meaning but limit access to the majority of consumers.

With WF IV, @vedikaja_in and I are doing something different.

Like before, we’re onboarding engineers, designers, researchers, data scientists, salespeople, and other domain experts as LPs in the fund. But this time at a larger scale with USVC.

AngelList recently announced USVC, a new kind of fund that’s accessible to everyone, including the non-accredited. It holds positions in private late-stage companies like xAI, Anthropic, OpenAI, Sierra, and Vercel. I personally invested.

Today, they just announced their investment in Weekend Fund IV, one of the first early-stage funds added to their portfolio.

If you’re interested in being a part of Weekend Fund and getting exposure to generational startups mentioned above, visit usvc [dot] com.

Of course, don’t invest what you can’t afford to lose.

Investing in startups is risky and you may lose all your money. USVC shares are illiquid with no guarantee of repurchase.
Consider investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. Read the prospectus: usvc [dot] com/prospectus.

Also, USVC is currently limited to US citizens. They’re working to open the fund to other geographies.

Lastly, my DMs are open. :)

We're off to such a great start with comanager. 🚀 If you know an artist that needs help, have them shoot me a DM for free credits to comanager and an intro to my team! @venicemusic

Has short-term thinking hurt the music industry?

Wow. How did @AnthropicAI fall off a such a cliff with Opus 4.7? If it ain’t broke….

@garrytan Sorry for your loss, Garry. I’m sure you made her proud.
