Can founders raise funding without chasing billion-dollar outcomes?
Original: Ask HN: Could you find funding if you didn't want to build a $1-10B business?
A discussion on Hacker News asks whether founders could still attract venture funding if they deliberately did not want to build a $1-10 billion business. The question targets the venture capital model, which typically requires outsized returns, and invites debate over whether smaller, sustainable businesses can get backed at all.
Why now: It challenges the dominant VC expectation of unicorn-scale returns, a tension many founders feel.
