That is a solid outcome, but with nearly 80m (publicly) raised, likely not a giant return based on those numbers and length of company existing. Some may have done quite well, but plenty of unclear details. There are many notable home-runs for all players involved, FB, Whatsapp, etc, but those are often the exception.

This isn't to say it's a bad acquisition or should be dismissed as a failure. It just re-iterates that it's not all easy, glory, and success.

I do hope for the team involved it worked out just as they'd hoped, but from their post it feels like many hard years and more of a next chapter than the end. Best of luck to them all in the future.
