I find it very intriguing and fascinating the market penetration speed tiktok had:

- developed in 200 days

- launched in September 2016 in China

- launched in September 2017 internationally

- in November 2017 it's parent company spends up to $1 billion to acquire musical.ly.

- it presently has over 500 million MAU users (I think it has them for over a year now, but I'm on mobile and can't find a source for this claim)

How do you think it's possible for an app appearing seemingly out of the blue to move so fast in such a crowded and mature market like social media?
