#12I'm surprised it doesn't mention their previous startup Auctomatic which they sold for a few million when John was 17 and Patrick was 19.
"Patrick founded Auctomatic and joined Y Combinator as a Winter 2007 company. Its path would not last long. At the age of 19 and ten months after incorporating, the company was bought by Live Current Media for $5MM where Patrick became the Director of Product Engineering in 2008"
