How would you deal with equity in an offer from a company such as Dropbox or Square who clearly aren't going to disappear soon, and have a lot of momentum as a mid-sized, well-funded company?


I think this is probably the most difficult situation as it's extremely hard to predict if the stock will become liquid.

At this point one should be looking either at solid financials or a twitter like ability to command a great valuation.

I think Square and Dropbox both have solid rev models and valuations, my guess is that both would experience a liquidity event in the next 5 years.
