Didn’t Uber have a down round? They didn’t implode of course but it seems like it did significantly affect their trajectory.

I can’t think of any big YC company with a down round + death spiral, but I think maybe one of the Techstars companies?

There is a good list of startups that went bankrupt here: https://www.cbinsights.com/research/startup-failure-post-mor... Katerra seems like the latest big one - $1.5B in funding that filed for chapter 11 last year.

Wasn’t a unicorn I believe but seems close enough.
