Congrats to Backblaze!<p>It seems to have a good &quot;IPO Pop&quot; (going up in price), but not too much. Enough to be reasonable and increase hype, but not enough to suggest they were underpriced and therefore left money on the table.<p>At a ~$630-million valuation, this is a smallcap (just a bit larger than what most would consider a microcap). Looking at the business model, I&#x27;d think there&#x27;s a lot of room for growth here, more so than some companies that already are considered largecaps.<p>Small is good, because small means more growth potential. Its harder for a $100 Billion company to grow than a $1 Billion company to grow.
