Interesting story as usual from @eringriffith. I’m curious how much these alumni will be true mafias in the PayPal sense, though. The companies are so much larger while private that it seems there could be many smaller ex-Uber or ex-Airbnb networks. Perhaps Google is a good comp? https://twitter.com/eringriffith/status/1105899107401371648 …

Square has already produced more billion dollar companies than Uber and AirBnB combined.

You think Stripe could make a mafia too?

The red herring is # companies being started by alums of particular companies. That's almost entirely indicative of access to capital and free time, not competence.

Especially in a super hot market.
