How Mark Zuckerberg Is Slowly Killing Off Snapchat by NaijaTechGuy(m): 6:56am On Mar 21, 2017
A while ago, Mark Zuckerberg offered $3 Billion Dollars to buy Snap Inc from Evan Spiegel but his offer was refused . Evan Spiegel who's just 25 years old had first received an email from Zuckerberg in 2012 concerning Snapchat before it went viral. Here's a snapshot of the email.



After Snapchat rejected Zuckerberg's buyout offer. Mark decided to bring the game to them, placing business on level terms. Mark took one of the features that made Snapchat stand out and expanded it to more people on his own platforms. I'll liken Mark to Pinky and the Brain-



The first blow to Snapchat was kicked off on Instagram which has over 600 million monthly active users, compared with Snapchat’s 150 million daily users. Instagram launched its own Instagram Stories just eight months ago and has already hit that same 150 million daily-user level.


The direct connection with Instagram and Facebook helped Instagram to reach that feat in such a short time. This reduced Snapchat's growth from 12% to 3%.
Snap Inc might have thought it might just stop at Instagram but Mark wasn't still satisfied with the results, he decided to open up the floodgates

The stories were added on Facebook Messenger and Whatsapp, which have billions of users. Also the stories are also coming to the main Facebook app as well. Snapchat still has a few perks Facebook hasn't copied yet but may soon copy. If Snapchat doesn't do anything, anytime soon it will become a place we all once knew.


Let's keep our fingers crossed and see what Snap Inc Comes up with to save their social network.

It's like saying how Dangote is killing noodles business for Indomie brand...common, Mark isn't killing it and if Snapchat is feeling threatened, he should just add more features or sell it off cool

..There were 195 newcomers, including 26-year-old John Collison, who is now the
world’s youngest self-made billionaire,
just two months younger than Snapchat’s
Evan Spiegel. There are 56 billionaires under age 40, down from 66 last year... Thinking

Its business bro... Nothing personal, the strong feed on the weak, same with Dangote, drives down his competition.

That's how business men do......they don't care about the ordinary people...they only care about their bank account. ...social media is slowly killing off physical interaction..we need to be careful!!

Mark Zuckerberg is a brilliant young man I must say. He keeps improving what he already has to keep the others at bay. If he continues this way he'll soon end up as one of the most powerful men in the world.
