Me thinks you're overstating it because you don't understand how VC's function. Venture Capitalists borrow money from Investment Bankers based on percentages. The market has lost all of its gains during the pandemic, that trend is still bearish. The risk percentages were adjusted, and now there's less money to go around. It's seriously basic math.

Have you taken inflation into account? Though also have to consider that growth stocks value also declined due to increasing interest rates.
"Venture Capitalists borrow money from Investment Bankers based on percentages.'

Me thinks you don't know how venture capital works?
