“ The existing investors don't have liquidity.”

Did mom and pop invest..? No they did not. The investors who did knew the long time horizon they were committing to.

They could’ve gone public earlier - they chose not to and venture capitalists were happy to keep supplying the funding.

Also lol @ using that act to explain why people take longer to ipo. Lest we forget how deep venture capital has become. Hahahha

“ Historically, companies like SpaceX would have gone public earlier”

Could woulda shoulda. Mate they didn’t. Moreover if they had, the existing investors would’ve got a shittier exit.

You can just wait for the price to drop post ipo as it usually does if you actually want to invest.
