I dunno about YCombinator's stance ... but PG has mentioned them some: http://paulgraham.com/nft.html, https://twitter.com/paulg/status/1490406747051286539 (via https://treatyourcrypto.com/venture-capitalist-paul-graham-d...)

OpenSea was a W18 (https://www.ycombinator.com/blog/yc-companies-looking-for-su...) YC project (found via https://www.ycombinator.com/blog/?query=nft)

Interesting, for me that makes the consistent strong sentiment here against cryptocurrency and especially NFT's all the more surprising.
Just because NH is a subdomain of YCombinator doesn't mean it's "run by" or "is their" site
I'm pretty sure it is though. I mean I think dang is a YCombinator employee. I also don't know of many sites that let 3rd parties run their subdomains, unless they're explicitly and obviously set up for that purpose, like maybe wordpress.com.
But the content isn't inherently "YCombinator-approved" :)
