Walked by this heaping pile of twisted concrete for the 1st time in a while (SF Embarcadero)...
brutalist buildings are bad enough to my eyes but this fountain is the worst example I can think of
And it's spewing green water right now (which apparently is a temporary cleaner)
Fun fact: U2 performed an impromptu set at the fountain in 1987. They decided to do it with <24 hours notice and ended up being their first cover of "All Along The Watchtower" which they just decided and learned the chords to on the way to the show.
To announce the concert, Bono graffitti'd the fountain with "Stop the Traffic, Rock and Roll"
if this is accurate, OATV sold all of their shares at the series C, meaning they got a 12x return (making some assumptions) instead of the 456x they could have had if they had held on.
No right way to do this btw, plenty of counter examples.
They do charge a platform fee, so the revenue # may be incomplete
@viseinc fwiw I don't mean to knock them, they are building a business and I think its possible that I'm missing something, just interesting to read public filings
Voodoo is a 350 ppl French company that makes a ton of free-to-play games (Helix Jump, Baseball Boy, Snake vs Block, Hole io, Aquapark, Purple Diver, Paper io). They build on Unity and pump em out, often cloning indie games
You prob know Tencent, they are a monster in China- they make the messaging service WeChat, the most popular app in China, along with QQ, an instant messaging app that also has video, music, and a browser. They also have a huge gaming division and have a huge investing arm
Another great thread on this topic from @Nithin0dha
but a little jargon-y for the US folks.
definitions: 1 Crore = 10M. He's saying a max of 150M people are addressable as revenue generating in India
