> … VC's are making actual investment decisions based on imaginary internet points? The only claim here is that there’s a report that tracks GitHub star growth that is that is presumably read by VCs: >> Union Labs is the most consequential case. It was ranked #1 on Runa Capital's ROSS Index for Q2 2025 - a widely cited VC industry report identifying the "hottest open-source startups" - with 54.2x star growth and 74,300 stars. Our analysis found 32.7% zero-repo accounts, 52% zero-follower accounts, and a fork-to-star ratio of 0.052. The StarScout analysis flagged it with 47.4% suspected fake stars. An influential investment-sourcing report that VCs rely on was topped by a project with nearly half its stars suspected as artificial. Again, the claim here is that the report is “influential”. Maybe? |
