In 2014, WhatsApp was acquired by Facebook for almost $21.8 billion – huge amount even considering that at the time the messaging app already had 500 million users. Now it looks like a bargain as the number has quadrupled. Today, WhatsApp announced that it has reached the 2 billion users milestone.
That’s an impressive user base growth given that in 2016, the app had 1 billion and in 2018, it had 1.5 billion users.
