### Comment:
To take over the userbase like they did with Insta.

### REPLY:
I'd be a little surprised if Facebook actually saw that much value in acquiring the Snapchat userbase at anything close to the current market valuation (~$50 per DAU) given they now have two much larger products that are in direct competition with Snapchat and are already implementing Snapchat features. and they would end up needing to pay for Snapchat's costly opperating expenses. It is certainly possible, but I would expect it would only happen after the stock takes a big dive.
