New funding opportunities for startups and where the interests of VCs go?

Two weeks ago, @byalexai discussed whether VCs are losing their appeal in the AI era. A few months ago, I personally noticed a lot of hate toward VCs and praise for bootstrapping on X.

It felt like VCs were being demonised: selective investors who take a big slice once a good opportunity appears, and then founders are expected to deliver top results while entrepreneurial freedom fades. That s how it was often framed.
