Are they? Are any of the companies public? It seems like a burn through cash to get a user base sort of thing but maybe these companies are older and more established than it seems to me.

Are you required to be public in order to make money ?

No, but it would make it possible to actually check whether they do or not, which I guess is why parent is asking.

yeah, just gives you numbers you can look at vs. just guessing.
