Early pre-IPO investors Index Ventures and its affiliate Yucca have filed to sell ~1.85M shares. While the ~$12.6M amount is modest relative to the $13.6B market cap, the coordinated filings by two related entities on the same day may raise perception of insiders reducing exposure. Monitor whether actual sales are executed and if additional filings from other early investors follow.
