> YC's current portfolio value of nearly $1T

I don't think you mean portfolio value. That would mean YC actually owns $1T in the companies they funded, at their current valuation. The following on YC front page is more meaningful: "Our companies have a combined valuation nearing $1T."

Yes, the combined valuation number you cited is the one I was referring to. You're right that it's not correct to call this "portfolio value"; thanks for pointing out the mistake. (But it is still the correct number to compare SendGrid's $2B exit value to.)
