venture capital is a strange ecosystem of very smart boys with too much money looking for very smart ideas to turn that money into huge piles of money. so everyone involved has an incentive to sell themselves as the smartest of the very smart boys with the smartest of the very smart ideas such as "selling toilet paper with a subscription", and to remind their audience that only the extra special smart boys can recognize the extra special smart ideas and get in big on the ground floor. so it's a giant fart-huffing apparatus, a hall of mirrors that entices people with constant validation of their intelligence if they're willing to drop large amounts of cash on the promise of extravagant returns.
this is the most efficient way of distributing capital for increasing production.
