On May 6th, according to the Financial Times, Anysphere, the company behind AI code editor cursor, has just completed a $900 million funding round led by Thrive Capital, with a staggering valuation of $9 billion. This round of financing has attracted top venture capital firms to participate, including a16z and Accel. The cryptocurrency exchange FTX was once a seed round investor in Cursor, but after FTX's bankruptcy liquidation, its liquidation team sold its Cursor shares for $200000, and the value of these shares has now skyrocketed to about $500 million.
