I sort of get your point, but this exact same thing has been said about Facebook, Instagram & Twitter. To counter my own point, there's also MySpace, Path, YikYak and Google+. However, I imagine that Snapchat has surpassed the "terminal velocity" in user growth/size to a point where I don't think its going anywhere anytime soon.

- mjolk 10y agoFacebook asks for a lot of information from users and grew its way into government contracts and safer high $value arrangements due to how much data they store. Even if you're not "on" Facebook, people you know will establish a presence for you in Facebook's data. Twitter accounts are cheap and the platform only has value as long as advertisements can run unchallenged by a large number of users.
