You get that there's a whole section of this post headlined "Why We Raised A Bunch Of Money", right?

[comice]

yes and I reread it a few times in case I was missing something. I even turned my adblocker off in case it was removing the section that answers OP's questions but it didn't appear.

It's obviously perfectly fine if you don't want to or can't answer those questions and nobody is owed answers to them.

Just, you're known for a straight talking style so the omission is conspicuous.

I honestly don't know what it is you're looking to hear. We said what we're using the money for: hardware, rolling out more regions, and a bunch more support and infra engineers.

[comice]

you are telling us what fly will be spending the money on.

what OP is asking is, what did the investors receive in exchange for giving fly the money.

[tptacek]

Stock.

[comice]

this might be the weirdest conversation I've ever had on this weird site.

I think the we give you stock, you give us money, we spend that money hiring is the a pretty common event.
