Michael Arrington, founder of TechCrunch and general partner at Arrington Capital, recounted breaking Google's acquisition of YouTube—including the purchase price—four days before the official announcement.
"I broke the story of Google buying YouTube and I had the price. I had it like four days before it was announced and everybody laughed at me," Arrington said.
Arrington Capital, established in 2017, has deployed capital into Layer 1 networks, DeFi applications, and blockchain infrastructure. The firm's investment thesis centers on projects with strong technical foundations and clear utility.
