Like Telegram, Snapchat is therefore also trying to move from a business model entirely dependent on advertising (and in its case also on sale of devices, such as glasses and drones) to a hybrid one: at the end of May Snap’s stock had collapsed on the stock market, with peaks of up to 39%, and Evan Spiegel, CEO of the company, had announced a downward revision of the growth and revenue forecasts for the quarter in progress; Spiegel also specified that the company would slow down the pace of hiring and it would invest “at a slower pace than expected given the operating environment.”
