Alternately, if your company is worth less than $1.7M then YC won't invest?


As they made clear, YC is not necessarily out just to make a profit. (The investment in non-profits, for instance, is clearly not profit driven.) Sure, they'll make a profit, but that won't be the only driver.

Besides, at this stage, no company actually has a value. Companies have a probability distribution of possible values... and it's a very diffuse distribution.
