"But a little digging shows a much more predictable source: they took a $435,000 round of seed funding in January from FreshTracks Capital, a Vermont-based VC firm that announced the deal in March."

People forget (or mostly never knew) that Ello was a Vermont thing.

I once spitballed with a certain VC at FreshTracks Capital about an idea I had, which lead to him running off with it and burning millions of dollars making it into BRIDJ, which shut down a few years ago.

True, but a little misleading. The majority of the co-founders of Ello, plus nearly all of its staff, were based in Colorado.

Source: I worked for Ello.
