@Joost, right, but Envato has 1,345,527 files, some of them are worth many thousands of dollars, so apart from the userbase, Envato generates a lot of money from the sales.. You are right about FB and Instagram though.

Envato isn’t worth much, imo. It’s earning should be around $10million/year, so may be it’s valued at $80m or $50m. guys, I think we are doing something wrong

Facebook only bought Instagram because they saw it as a threat. They thought Instagram was taking away some of their potential users.

I would say that is very, very far from the truth.
