I don't know about all of them, but do you realize that we are talking about 1B$ ACTUAL revenue in current dollars of sales, not valuation ? These are two very different things.


I'm pretty sure the discussion was about valuation / market cap:

> At any reasonable estimate of Valve's revenue and valuation multiples, they're easily a billion dollar company


They already most likely already have a billion in revenues.


How about valuations based on revenue then...


If they already have one billion in revenues their valuation is likely much higher than that.


Instagram, Oculus, WhatsApp, Twitch.tv don't have a billion dollar revenue.


That was precisely my point.
