There&amp;#x27;s always a negative signal when your lead investor doesn&amp;#x27;t participate in future rounds - if they start doing that more regularly with this new fund, then it might become a negative signal for a YC company NOT to have Continuity&amp;#x2F;YC as a follow-on investor (which sucks b&amp;#x2F;c the firms are so early stage).&lt;p&gt;Anyone know how VC firms that invest in all early-growth-late firms deal with this dilemma (realizing there are only a few cases)?</text></comment>
