So there was a Reddit post about this yesterday that got deleted. Reddit’s last round is funded by fidelity and khaira ventures. There is absolutely no info about khaira ventures. The ceo has 4 questionable articles on internet about him. He is 18 and has invested in a few big names through the firm. Is it a sham co or is it an investor who wants to keep himself very discreet. Check crunchbase for khaira ventures and lookup articles about jivteshwar khaira. He has a LinkedIn profile but looks dodgy. Thoughts comments? Hopefully this post doesn’t get deleted and I don’t get banned from blind. @reddit
Who cares, money is money
reddit is owned by condé nast and has already filed to go public. what rock are you living under
Was referring to series f funding that happened in Aug 2021.
yep. i’m sure a company funded by a16z, fidelity and others has taken on a shady dark money investor.
Lolz. What conspiracy theory is going on here?
*centers tin foil hat*
anyone can post anything to crunchbase. there’s almost no due diligence. wouldn’t be surprised if khaira is a fake post. what does reddit’s actual press say about it?
here’s what reuters says (written by reddit PR). https://www.reuters.com/technology/reddit-raise-700-million-over-10-billion-valuation-2021-08-12/ 100% sure khaira is fake and is someone messing with crunchbase
All these articles are before completion of funding. Only 410 mil out of 700 were raised by then.
Isn't Reddit funded by Cheena.
Just read about information available on net about Jivteshwar Khaira. Looks fishy. He might be front for someone else.
it’s a fake person
it’s no one. if it were someone being secretive they wouldn’t have posted it on crunchbase at all. CB is not investigative, it’s self reported you’re hopefully joking but just trying to cut off the conspiracy theorists at the knees also musk SEEKS attention. he’s the quintessential narcissist, only bested by trump. if he were investor we’d know because he’d make sure we know
Why does it matter? So long as he put in money, who cares?

What kind of shadow ops do you think reddit is running where you'd get banned here?
