A few months ago AngelList announced Syndicates – enabling investors on AngelList to create fund-like groups of investors to invest together in AngelList companies (following a single lead investor).

In a FOMO world, seed and series A investors are more likely to extend beyond the bounds of their stated strategy to get access to companies.
