A company like Zoom is "riding on this wave" because they've been working hard until they reached this "overnight success". I see a lot of people thinking they can do the same by "trying to ride the wave", but I think that's short term thinking. If you build a startup just for this situation, you will probably end up building opportunistic business that has not much to do with your own vision. Instead you should build something that is NOT obviously attractive during this time so as not to jump into a red ocean. You should build something that is unattractive today but powerful in the long run, because no one else would be building this today while you pick up your users one by one. The key is you should focus on building a great product instead of trying to make money during this time.
