It used to mean 'acquired company, including userbase, products, revenue streams etc'.

Now it means 'hired team and shutdown previous company'.

I think it's always just meant 'liquidity'.
Yes, used to be called "liquidity event".
I respectfully disagree. Exits have always had the potential to go that way..
