After we have waited an announcement about the Microsoft deal with Discord, we have received it, Discord will not be bought by Microsoft, the sum that was rumored was 10 billion dollars.
Discord has 140 million monthly users, generating a profit of 130 million dollars in 2020. With all that, it seems that 130 million is not a solid sum and Discord tried to sell itself to other players.
Things have changed. According to The Wall Street Journal, Discord is negotiating with three more companies, along Microsoft, but has decided to remain independent.
