"Since its first round of funding and at its current $1 billion valuation, Twitter’s worth has grown by $1,223,990 per day. If you start with the day of Twitter’s inception (the first tweet from Twitter’s Inventor and Chairman, Jack Dorsey), then Twitter’s worth has grown by around $772,797 per day."

I hope that this leads people to call bullshit. I love Twitter but I don’t believe that it’s created $1.2mm of value per day since its first round of funding closed. I believe it’s created an enormous amount of value. Just not that much. Venture math doesn’t have to reflect reality, though. The only time reality has to come to Twitter’s valuation is when it either sells or floats on the public markets.
