Ask HN: Need help in understanding private equity offer
Hi,
I have a friend that is being issued 10k shares over a period of 3 years at a valuation of $70B. The company recently raised $17M in funding and it is a very early stage startup. The strike price is $0.01. Can someone help me understand what this means? What are the pros and cons of accepting it?
Edit: The total number of shares will be limited to 607,500,000
