What is the best way to bootstrap my startup in the U.S.
In Germany, game-changing happened.

Offerings from Grab, "the everyday everything app," range from grocery delivery to investment services; Malaysia-based AirAsia has rebranded itself as Capital A as it expands its offerings to encompass ride hailing, food delivery, and much more.

Tech companies are no longer worth as much as they used to.
The Fed increased the U.S. interest rate by 75 basis points yesterday, the highest single rate hike since 1994, which is bad news for software companies.
Many of the software multiples that were re-priced last year have expensive price tags that they have to live up to. The possibility of multiples being compressed further is frightening for this group.
