thanks @alex_hirner. I have applied for EB-1 EA. Doing whatever I can to get it and will find out the result next year.

However I have significant resources at my disposal right now, which many other entrepreneurs wouldn't have - supporting the point raised by Vivek Wadhwa. If I had a Green Card, I wouldn't have sold to Dropbox and would be doing running a startup right now :)

Didn't quite understand your last line. Did it mean that 50% of YC batch applicants for EB-1 got it?

Thanks once again!
