I remember when Stripe bought a company in my country for $200m, this was the same sentiment. It's never early to sell your company to Stripe. You have "unlimited" money to keep building.

Unlimited runway is definitely a feature for founders. Privy was very well positioned and becoming rather dominant. Feels like clipped wings to me especially when unlimited runway actually becomes “not a core priority”.

I don't think Stripe is like Meta that acquire to shut down startups. The company I referenced is still entering new countries 5 years later.

Stripe’s recent bridge and other stablecoin acquisitions means it’s highly unlikely to be shutdown anytime soon. Big picture - stablecoins are in a clear breakout this cycle with usage. But the business is not same, same to Stripe’s core business. The acquisition is nice for Stripe bc it gives them API customers and top of funnel transaction flow.
