> weird prior assumption to make

No, at this level of capital involved, and so much opacity around the company financials, it's a perfectly reasonable assumption.



No, it's not. It's a stupid thing to say. Perfectly stupid assumption. There are 1000s of multi billion $ revenue companies operating and as a % the number that are fraudulent is close to zero, especially those public or looking to go public. There is always the possibility, but it's extremely naive to think it's likely.
