We are proud at DFJ Growth to be recognized year after year by the Midas List. But what we are most proud of are the epic achievements by the entrepreneurs we partner with.

[Forbes @Forbes]

Venture capital is on the cusp of what could be its greatest returns ever.

This year’s Forbes Midas List—the 25th anniversary edition—reflects the staggering rise of SpaceX, OpenAI and Anthropic, three private companies whose valuations are reshaping the venture landscape and driving a record 25 newcomers onto the ranking.

Hop in your seat. Give Grok your itinerary and relax and enjoy your virtual chauffeur. (Whilst monitoring the road). It drives better than any human at this point.

FSD V14.3.3 is a banger

Must be a proud Papa @scottmcnealy #goMaverick

Getting to space was step one.

Tom Mueller @lrocket helped power SpaceX to orbit. Now, with Impulse Space @GoToImpulse, he's solving the harder problem — moving through space with the precision it demands.

@Jason Tony’s was a knock off. Go get a Patek (IYKYK)

@reidhoffman Meanwhile our industry is racing at breakneck speed to a future no one can even understand driven by a super powerful non-deterministic technology.

@msuster And now we use those two hours for doom scrolling.

@ayemnut Watching that core stage burn up on re-entry is so 1960s

[DFJ Growth @dfjgrowth]

Thrilled to back the @Saronic team in their $1.75B Series D. At @DFJGrowth, we love partnering with founders who are reimagining how critical industries are built – Saronic hits the mark with a clear-eyed vision that is both compelling and crucial.

Can influencers bring their followers back to theaters to watch films in a real social way? Perhaps this is the future. https://t.co/bBHcUDr2dt

@amuse Beautiful!!!

[Barry Schuler @BSchuler]

Definitely a game change. I’ve “driven” less than 5 miles of the 2500 miles I’ve “ridden” in my new Y.

[Shaun Maguire @shaunmmaguire]

Tesla FSD had its "Claude Code Moment" at the exact same time (roughly last Nov - Jan)

Somehow folks are sleeping on the former, while being aware of the latter

My wife and I bought two Teslas over the last quarter because of FSD

IT'S INSANE 🚀

(...Next up, the Grok Moment?)

[DFJ Growth @dfjgrowth]

Thrilled to lead @Xbow $120 million Series C financing and partner with the XBOW team as they build toward a future where autonomous offense is the best defense. https://t.co/epxRZawBVg

@mikepat711 So true. No question it drives better than a human.

@garrytan Always loved the Posterous community. But Tumblr attracted the XXX crowd (along with the creatives). They could have been OF! 😂
