I love it when people put “10x” in the company name. :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

I’d personally opt for 11x :crazy_face:

11 is better than 10, right?

12x any one?

To publicly state the upper level of your ambition in your company name seems weird to me.

I wonder how much the post-IPO price is based on hype as like space travel, genomics is a sexy thing, and people are piling in on it in the hope for big returns.

To put it in perspective:

I know it’s not a fair comparison, 23 and me was aimed at the retail market and always felt very gimmicky, whilst 10x genomics is aimed at scientist with a proposition that sounds more valuable
