Today, WHATSAPP founder and CEO Koum in its push refuigerant revealed that the number of live users WhatsApp has reached 600 million.

April, the service just broke through the 500 million mark, the daily average users share more than 700 million photos, 100 million video. Tencent has said in its earnings reports that WeChat and micro-mail combined live users up to 438 million-most of them from China. Other competitors, such as: Tango only 70 million months live, Viber is 100 million.

Koum in the Tweet also pointed out: "Active users and registered users is very different yo ~" for line and Kik these two have never disclosed registration number of competitors, this sentence seems to have "you know" means.

But compared with rivals, WHATSAPP's business model of "one year free and one dollar a year" seems to be behind the times. Line and micro-letter (including WeChat) revenue soared, the latter is the trick is mobile games-the simple pursuit of users (even active users) for the business model is not the most reasonable approach.

But Koum is resistant to both advertising and gaming, and Facebook appears to be WhatsApp as a pioneer in recruiting and developing new users, and then thinking of incorporating this huge group of mobile internet users into Facebook's ecosystem-for example, WHATSAPP The only message credit in the Internet.org app series.
