Where do you think some of the top 10 private YC startups [1] might land on this list [2] in the future? Which ones will do well after the IPO, and which ones will crash or go sideways for a long time?

I was an early employee at one of the top private YC startups and I have an opportunity to sell some or most or my shares on the secondary market via a forward contract (or similar.) I'd be very interested to hear your thoughts and opinions. Hopefully someone reading this has done a lot of research and can make some reasonable predictions.

Not sure, but looking at our market, it is an unbelievable period of shutdowns right now. Five competitor CEOs have reached out to my co-founder and I about winding down their companies due to inability to continue to fund themselves, and trying to sell. 2024 is going to be an insane year for market share growth for any companies that are able to endure to the end of it and beyond.
