Today, WhatsApp has surpassed the 800 million monthly active users per month, so now many are asking themselves if the most expensive Facebook acquisition in the near future can show a figure of 1 billion for this indicator.
On Friday evening, Jan Kum, the CEO and co-founder of WhatsApp,
shared this news with the public on a personal page on Facebook.
We remind you: last year Facebook bought WhatsApp for $ 19 billion, and the acquisition gained another 100 million active monthly users every 4 months since August, when WhatsApp used about 600 million people a month. In January 2015, this figure was already equal to 700 million.
