Driven by the pandemic, gaming, and the Web 3, Discord is one of the fastest growing products in the world and the online gathering place for many of the world's most important communities.
Facebook changed its name to Meta to announce to the world its firm determination to explore the metaverse, but to some extent, Discord is the real door to the metaverse.
First discussed four months agoDiscordWhen we mentioned that it is the best-known game communication product, one of the largest and fastest-growing social networks in the world, and one of the most interesting communication services after the previous generation of social products such as Facebook and Twitter.
Today, Discord has made new progress in many ways. In September of this year, just five months after rejecting Microsoft's acquisition, Discord completed a new round of financing led by Dragoneer Investment Group, with a valuation of $15 billion, more than double the previous round of financing. In the secondary equity trading market, the price of Discord may have exceeded 20 billion US dollars.
Compared with other companies, Discord is indeed more like a real "metaverse original": this product was originally designed only for gamers, and has already expanded its influence boundaries, becoming members of communities in various fields including education, investment, and Crypto At the same time, it has also become the first choice of many Web3 organizations.
So now we prefer to summarize it like this: Discord is the gateway to the metaverse. Unlike almost all other social products at present, Discord feels fluid and dynamic, and it can even be said to be "an organism that has not yet evolved."
However, compared to the great potential that Discord urgently needs to release, Discord is currently quite cautious in terms of commercialization. In today's article, we will continue the previous discussion and deeply analyze Discord, the native metaverse infrastructure.

1. Origin: Discord and OpenFeint
The birth and success of Discord is not just accidental, but it is indeed full of drama, because it is almost a reenactment of founder Jason Citron's first entrepreneurial experience.
image description
Giant Bombs and Ars Technica
OpenFeint provides in-game social functions for other game products through the SDK, and its income comes from the revenue sharing of major game stores. By the end of 2010, OpenFenin had 120 million registered users and connected more than 7,000 games, including Fruit Ninja These popular games at the time all used OpenFenint's services. In September of the following year after OpenFeint was launched, Apple launched Game Center, which also confirmed the correctness of the team's judgment on the direction.
After a series of financings, in 2011 Japanese social network and game maker GREE sold OpenFeint for a handsome $104 million. After 15 months in GREE, Citron decided to start a second business.
Discord was born almost as a rewrite of OpenFeint.
In 2012, Citron founded Phoenix Guild. In 2013, the company changed its name to Hammer & Chisel, and launched its first game product, Fates Forever, in 2014. However, Fates failed to achieve the expected success. One of the important reasons was that mobile The platform has not yet been popularized, and most gamers still stay on the PC side, and then the game was discontinued in 2015.
The idea of Discord came from an employee of H&C. Because the two founders also agreed with the necessity of in-game chat, Discord and Fates Forever were developed simultaneously within the company. After Fates was discontinued, the company's operations focused on Discord.
It wasn't a mind-boggling decision, and when talking to Fates players, Citron and his team found that the in-game chat feature was one of the most mentioned. In 2014, when Fates was launched, even though there were products such as TeamSpeak and Skype to help players realize the demands of real-time social interaction while playing games, these products were not perfect enough. Citron realizes there are still opportunities here:
"We had a hunch that there was a big market for people being served before, during and after gaming, but we didn't know how to change that."
Next, H&C spent nearly half a year undergoing a serious and painful transformation. In 2015, Discord was released, but it didn't spark discussions like OpenFeint, and didn't even stir up any splashes, only occasional scattered visits by dozens of people.
As mentioned earlier, the functions provided by Discord were already satisfied by products such as Teamspeak and Skype at that time. After talking with users and viewing the data, the development team of Discord found that Discord is indeed better than Skype, but there are still many problems. For example, problems such as unstable call quality are not good enough to make users willing to migrate. These feedbacks have been improved in subsequent Discord product upgrades.
Discord really exploded on the user side because of Reddit.Someone posted a Discord Server link on the Final Fantasy XIV subreddit to invite other players to discuss a new game expansion, the Discord team noticed and connected with the player and came to their community ( Server) to communicate with these users and earn their own promotional publicity, Discord subsequently managed to attract more people's attention on Reddit.secondary title
2. Positioning: What exactly is Discord?
Although Discord users are not limited to gamers, and Discord users will also choose to use this product for online socializing, learning, and even meetings, but as a product originally built for gamers, Discord still retains its gaming side . For most people, it is indeed difficult to understand Discord and the world it presents at once.
In a recent brand marketing campaign, Discord changed its Slogan to "Imagine a place (imagined place)", which is not a vision that has not yet been realized, but a series of things that users on Discord are currently doing. As part of the event, the official also invited many users to imagine a blank canvas as Discord, and arbitrarily describe the shape of their imagined digital space on it.
User base beyond gamers
At present, Discord has about 300 million users and 150 million monthly active users. These users are distributed on millions of active servers (communities). These servers cover different fields such as games, investment, politics, animation, etc.

Reddit's WallStreetBets (WSB) is one of Discord's largest communities, with more than 570,000 members. Discord's most popular investment community also fully carries the genes of Discord as a gaming community. This is not a gathering place for classical value investor clubs .
WSB's choice speaks volumes about where Discord fits in the social space.Specifically, Discord belongs to the downstream of platforms such as Twitter and Reddit, that is, if communities on some social platforms need real-time discussions, they will definitely come to Discord.For example, besides WallStreetBets, Reddit has many other subreddits that have started their own Discord communities to enable richer discussions.
Web3
There is no doubt that Discord has become the first choice for various Web3 projects, including NFTs, DAOs, investor communities and startups in the crypto space, etc. Discord has almost become an infrastructure presence in the encryption field.If an NFT project invites its supporters to join the Slack group today, it is no less than using a hotmail account and using Bing as a search engine today.
The more famous communities on Discord include Axie Infinity (800,000 members), Sushi (150,000), Solana (86,000), Loot (83,000), Uniswap (72,000) and Bored Ape Yacht Club (69,000) wait.
All of the above shows that the scope of use of Discord is quite extensive.
The digital "third space" that continues to break the circle
The epidemic has largely brought about the outbreak of Discord users, but its "breaking the circle" actually happened earlier.
In 2019, Taylor Lorenz published an article in The Atlantic about influencers migrating to Discord. Because they don't want to be kidnapped by the content information flow algorithms of platforms such as Facebook and Twitter, in order to better interact with their fans, Internet celebrities began to transfer to Discord in batches.
Citron and Vishnevskiy were surprised by Taylor Lorenz’s article and Discord’s growing non-gamer user base, according to Forbes,They began to realize that maybe users use Discord not just to play games, so they launched a platform user survey, hoping to reposition the value of Discord's products.
The results of the survey were surprising.More than 30% of users on the platform do not use Discord with games as the core scene, With the help of Discord, they organize reading clubs, group chats among friends, and operate fan communities on the Internet. Some companies even set up their own servers on Discord.
After this user research,Discord has iterated its mission and user strategy, and the most fundamental change is to expand from targeting game enthusiasts (Gamers) to everyone.
The answer to "what the hell is Discord" may be written in their ever-changing Slogan.
In April 2020, Discord changed its slogan from "It's time to ditch Skype and TeamSpeak." to "A new way to chat with your communities and friends." new ways for us to chat and interact)” and redesigned its branding and homepage.
In May of this year, Discord's Slogan evolved from "Your Place to Talk" to "Imagine a Place" again.
There is an article that defines Discord as the "third space" of the Internet, and Citron himself later agreed with this point. Although it was not intentional, Discord did build a digital third space, which is a natural result.
💡"Third Space" is an interdisciplinary critical concept proposed and used by American scholar Edward W. Soja. Soja believes that "Third Space" is outside the real (first space) and imagination (second space), while integrating Enough of the existence of the two is a possibility beyond the cognitive space of traditional dualism.
💡In the 1970s, American sociologist Ray Oldenburg further applied Soja's theoretical tools in the field of urban and social research. He called the place where he lived "the first space" and the place where he spent a lot of time working was called "Second space", while "third space" is an informal public gathering place outside the place of residence and work. The concept of "third space" emphasizes the social function of the place more prominently. Starbucks is the "third space "Typical representative.
Commsor CEO Mac Reddin, an early user of Discord, believes that one of the reasons for Discord's rise compared to its competitors is the company's understanding of gamer culture.According to Reddin, "There aren't many products that really talk to players."
Behind Discord's ever-changing Slogan is how Discord understands the constant changes of its "users": who are they? What are they doing on Discord?
As the founders, Citron and Vishnevskiy themselves attach great importance to and are good at understanding products from the perspective of users. This culture must be a key component of Discord's success.image description

Social Slack
Internally the Discord product consists of various "Server (community, group)"Constitution, each Server, is divided into different "Channelsimage description

As we mentioned in , Citron and Slack founder Stewart Butterfield have very similar entrepreneurial histories. In fact, from the product point of view, the two also have many similarities. "It's very similar to Slack" is most people's first impression of Discord. But apart from the fact that Discord is free and Slack charges, there are also obvious differences between Discord and Slack in many details. These differences reflect the fundamental differences between the two products: Discord is still a social product in the final analysis, while Slack is for enterprises.
Discord is easy to use and has a very low barrier to entry. After a user registers a Discord account, they can join or even create a Server at will. With the popularity of Discord, links to Discord Server can be seen everywhere, and you can often see them in Twitter profiles, subreddit and Telegram chats.
Slack has more limitations than Discord. Every time a user receives a new workgroup invitation, they need to re-enter their email and complete the registration process, and in Slack, only when two users' accounts belong to the same company group, can they private message each other, while In Discord, communication between users is completely open, and people can private message anyone.
Although the social atmosphere on Discord is strong, if you compare it with other social products, you will find that it has also given up many inherent designs of social products. Discord is not a social network in the traditional sense, after all, it was not designed and developed as a social product.
Discord users' personal homepages do not have "followers" and the corresponding number of fans. Users' content releases on the platform are presented in the form of dialogue within the server, rather than information flow controlled by algorithms. Discord has its own set of "influence" acquisition paths: constantly switch different avatars, or donate to the Server to which you belong.
Source of uniqueness: Vigorous bot ecology
In addition to the social structure, Discord's vigorous "bot ecology" is also attracting attention.
Bots on Discord can be simply understood as various "plugins", platform users can add any bot on the server according to their needs. There are various types of these bots, some focus on providing meme, some support playing Soundcloud and YouTube content in the server, and some bots provide auxiliary community operations With the trend of Web 3, Discord's bot ecosystem has expanded to Crypto-related scenarios.
MEE6 is a very popular Moderation Bot on Discord, it helps Servers to perform better internal operations, more than 14 million Servers use MEE6 to create custom welcome messages, proactively guide member behavior, assign community functional roles and grant "XP ” (“Experience Points”) to enrich the interactivity within the Server;
IdleRPG allows Server members to participate in Dungeons & Dragons-style role-playing games through chat commands only;
Collab.Land is a bot widely used by web3-related Servers to identify users holding specific tokens or NFTs and allow them to access some non-public channels within the Server.

Discord and Slack sites
From a user experience perspective, Discord's bot ecosystem is pretty important. A series of extended functions provided by bots make the user experience on Discord unprogrammed, and each server can implement unique rule settings by using different bot combinations. This is the main reason why Discord has a "game feel" that distinguishes it from other social platforms.
In 2020, Discord announced that it will pay more attention to the bot ecology, including official verification of existing bots and expanding usage scenarios. This is a good start. Bots not only provide users with a richer experience, but also imply Certain commercial value.
Users may want a Discord Bot Store-like product.
At this stage, the only channels for users to obtain Discord bots are Google direct search and Top.gg. Top.gg is a Discord ranking product created by the start-up company Medal. The emergence of a third-party product to meet the needs of platform users also explains to some extent the necessity and basis of user demand for Discord to create an official bot store.
Furthermore, for Bot developers, the Bot Store also provides an officially endorsed platform to display products and acquire users. Like the App Store and Google Play, Discord can also use a healthy ecosystem of bot developers. to maintain their leading position.
When high-quality bot developers can earn income through Discord, financial benefits will definitely attract more developers to join the ranks of Discord bots, so Discord's bots can be further enriched, and a virtuous circle is created, as shown in the figure below Show:
Therefore, the bot ecology may become the starting point for Discord to move towards a larger platform. Commercially, it will also bring Discord closer to its original plan of trying to make profits through the game store.

3. Financing: After rejecting Microsoft, the valuation is 15 billion
Since its establishment in 2012, Discord has raised a total of US$1 billion in financing.
"Investing is investing in people" is a widely spread early-stage investment philosophy. At its core, high-potential founders can continue to find directions on the unknown road to success until they succeed. Discord is arguably the best example of this theory.
Jason Citron does not need to introduce too much. As a deep game player, he is the embodiment of ordinary Discord users. His sincere love for the game industry allows him to truly understand the actual needs of game players. This has been proven since the days of OpenFeint.
Citron's partner, the company's CTO Stanislav Vishnevskiy, has a similar gene. He and Citron met at GREE (OpenFeint's Japanese acquirer), and Citron chose Vishnevskiy as CTO when it started its second venture. While Vishnevskiy worked for GREE and then Discord (then Hammer & Chisel), Vishnevskiy also co-developed Guildwork, another social product for MMORPG games supporting Final Fantasy, World of Warcraft and Aion Wait for the game.
Although Fates Forever failed to become the future of the company, it does not affect those early investors who invested in Phoenix Guild and Hammer & Chisel because of Fates Forever before the B round.
Benchmark and others participated in the Series A round at $1.95 per share, according to Pitchbook. In December last year, Discord's H round valued the company at $7 billion, and the price per share has risen to $280.25, a return of 143 times. With Discord's most recent valuation at $15 billion, the Series A investors are sitting on about 300x returns, and angel investors are certainly looking for more.
In March of this year, Microsoft tried to acquire Discord for a rumored $1-12 billion, but Discord rejected the offer. If acquired, Discord would fit perfectly into Microsoft's strong gaming portfolio, which includes XBox, Minecraft, and the recently acquired ZeniMax. In addition, Discord will be a technical upgrade to Microsoft Teams products and a strategic weapon in the metaverse enterprise competition. But Microsoft's $12 billion offer wasn't enough to close the deal. A few months later, Discord is valued at $15 billion, which is 115 X PE on 2020 revenue, which sounds expensive, but the company has more potential to grow than we predicted for Discord.
In a rich digital world, Discord captures the rarest asset: attention —"Whoever controls the attention controls the universe".

4. Business: Amazing growth rate and commercialization of "Buddhism"
Perhaps the most unique attribute of the Discord team is that it is not in a rush to commercialize.
Driven by the pandemic, gaming, and web3, Discord is one of the fastest growing products on the planet and home to many of the world's most important communities.

App Business, Discord

application business
For comparison, Facebook (Meta) has 3 billion MAUs, Snap has 459 million, and Reddit has 430 million. Twitter started not publishing MAU in 2019 and replaced it with "monetizable daily active users (mDAU)". Currently, its mDAU is 211 million. According to the latest statistics, its MAU is 396 million.
This means that the distance between Discord, which has only been established for 6 years, and most of the social media giants is getting smaller, and its growth rate is far faster than that of all these giants.
Discord's revenue growth even outpaced its user growth.image description
application business
With such staggering growth, Discord has yet to begin mass commercialization.
image description
Listed company data from Atom Finance
we are atprevious articleIntroduced inDiscord's only current commercialization attempt comes from Nitro, a value-added service of $10/month or $100/year, similar to QQ Yellow Diamond Membership.On the one hand, you get more functional benefits than free users, such as a larger image upload limit, clearer screen sharing, and better-looking avatars and stickers. On the other hand, similar to QQ, this kind of membership represents a kind of identity. Users can customize the DiscordTag number behind the ID and get a special badge.
For now, Citron's focus on product and community over advertising and revenue does give it a sticky and loyal user base. And how does the platform choose to carry out its own commercialization? The attitude of this part of the user is also very important.
Discord's business model for choosing Nitro wasn't planned from the start. According to Citron, the company's original plan was a game store similar to Steam. However, this plan has not yet been officially launched, and it has been questioned by users when it was only "announced" on the platform. Many people believe that Discord’s behavior is to prepare for the large-scale sacrifice of user data to carry out advertising business. In order to quell the debate, Discord has launched a paid subscription product “Nitro”.
Nitro has proven to be a very effective solution,Even though Nitro's functions and paid benefits seem too simple, it still helped Discord get a lot of benefits, and at the same time proved Discord's user stickiness and users' liking for the product.
Mac Reddin, a longtime Nitro subscriber, points out that being a Nitro member doesn't give you much, but it does make you feel like you're really supporting the company. Mac Reddin's answer epitomizes the will of most users on Discord,Not many companies have made billions of dollars just by relying on the "patronage" of users.
Therefore, the low APPU cannot be a shortcoming of Discord at the commercialization level. We should pay more attention to the huge potential of Discord. With the blessing of super sticky users and unique community atmosphere, it has enough time to think clearly.

5. Will Discord commit to Web3?
Even though Discord is already one of the infrastructures in the Crypto field, there is no official response on whether Discord will join it. Jason Citron said on Twitter not long ago that Discord has no product plans for NFT and encrypted wallets for the time being.
Such a clear statement is also related to the negative attitude of some users on Discord towards Web 3. Previously, Discord launched a survey on Web 3, and not everyone paid for it. And Discord has always respected its users.
So about "if Discord joins the ranks of Web3, what can it do?" Here are some of our imaginations:
Discord Crypto Wallet
If Discord is going to make a strategic deployment of Web3, then the wallet will definitely be a critical step. In the user research that Discord has been insisting on, the only encryption-related product that directly asks users is "Discord's native encryption wallet".
That is, each Discord account corresponds to an encrypted wallet, which may support Ethereum, such as Metamask, Rainbow, Solana or Phantom. At the same time, given that there are still a large number of non-encrypted servers on Discord, the wallet may not look like an encrypted wallet on the surface. Both of these ideas, which sound simple, present real technical challenges, but are a worthy endeavor nonetheless.
Integrating the wallet into Discord's core product has certain advantages for users and community leaders:
Let users send money and tokens to each other as easily as sending messages.
Token management for some servers and channels within Discord, no longer need third-party solutions like collab.land.
Provide a more convenient operation method for the community to airdrop tokens to its members.
Having a wallet is also good for Discord itself:
Allows Discord for transactions, lending, and staking monetization.
Being based on financial services gives Discord a place in the wider internet.
Develop more scenarios around the user's wallet.
DAO_OS
The picture below is a meme about how to build a DAO:
It's no coincidence that Discord is number one in the "DAO Starter Pack", as it has indeed become an important part of DAO communication and coordination and is ingrained in its culture.
As we mentioned earlier, Discord is downstream from platforms like Twitter and Reddit. Interestingly, if in the context of web3, Discord's role shifts to upstream.
For example, if you wanted to start a DAO today, where would you start?
First, you might connect with some friends via Twitter and Telegram. Once you've described your idea and sparked interest, you quickly migrate to Discord to keep the conversation flowing, flesh out the details, and get early community members. The best way to warm up to the launch of a project is to start on Discord and let it grow.
This provides a unique opportunity for Discord, perhaps as a DAO-oriented operating system, integrating some downstream functions (such as snapshot voting),In doing so, it bridges the gap between off-chain democracy and on-chain enforcement. Likewise, Discord could better integrate with financial management tools used by DAOs, allowing DAO managers to coordinate a series of payments without leaving the server.
Although Discord firmly controls the DAO world and occupies an important position in the value chain, it does not mean that Discord has become the default option for everyone.To some extent, the relationship between Discord and DAO is a bit delicate. The reason why DAO chose Discord may indeed have a "have to" factor. In order to truly deepen the relationship between the two and ensure that they will not be replaced, Discord should expand its functionality even more.
e-commerce
In order to achieve income diversification, Discord can actually consider supporting commercial sales activities.You can imagine a world where users sell each other music, pictures, labor, or whatever in the context of Discord discussions.(Or push to "Discord".)
Cryptocurrencies will be a particularly interesting instance given the unique status of Discord and the amount of money flowing in the space.
If holders of Bored Ape can directly buy and sell NFT in their channel, what will the transaction look like?What if Bankless DAO members could buy new tokens while discussing them? Of course, anything you buy, be it tokens or NFTs, can be kept in your local Discord wallet.
Obviously, a person will be interested in investing in some projects because of the discussion on Discord, but if they want to invest in infrastructure, they need to leave the platform first, and then go to the exchange or Opensea.
While potentially technically complex and undeniably a departure from the core of Discord, the possibility of getting a piece of the pie from OpenSea or FTX would be a big gain.
Progressive decentralization
Considering that investors have already invested $1 billion in Discord, this is unlikely to happen, but imagine if Discord issued a token one day?
As mentioned earlier, Discord and web3 have a love-hate relationship. There are many reasons, some of which include:
The Discord Server type is not in the encrypted field
False and fraudulent information will flood Discord private messages
It's worth discussing that Discord is a centralized company.
It sounds so strange that a centralized chat app has become the main front of the decentralized revolution. As a result, many have called for a Web3 Discord:
Phelps predicts that there will be no web3 Discord, but that Discord will be split into its components, using specific web3 tools to form the Transformers version of the product.
That's one option, but there's another: what if Discord itself was decentralized? What if Discord chooses ICO instead of IPO? $DISCORD sounds like a good answer. To be sure, this would represent a precedent the corporate world has never seen before, but if any multibillion-dollar company can pull this off, it's Discord.
First, Discord already behaves very much like a decentralized protocol.It is the most authentic and largest user community on the Internet. It thrives on the creativity, passion, and minimal extraction of those who choose to run communities in the digital realm—users can experience all the richness of Discord without paying a dime or Requires acceptance of any ad serving. And, the company launched Nitro to prove to its community that it won’t introduce ads; casting a governance token gives that promise the power of a smart contract.
Decentralization will also provide Discord with greater development opportunities and moats.
In terms of moats, tokens may help solve some of the issues plaguing Discord. For example, $DISCORD can be used to reward the operational members of the community, or ask users to pay a small portion of $DISCORD to send messages to users who are not friends with them to reduce spam.
From a development point of view, allowing users to benefit from the development of Discord will encourage more communities to set up shop on Discord, enabling and stimulating the prosperity of the in-app economy. It will allow users to reward each other with a simple "thank you," and even provide the infrastructure for the community to issue their tokens on the Discord track.
In addition, the release of $DISCORD to its 150 million monthly active users will immediately make Discord the largest web3 platform in the world, and the fall of $DISCORD will also cause great turmoil in Internet history.

6. The Future: Native Metaverse Infrastructure
The Internet experience is increasingly like playing a large online game.
If Twitter is the town hall of the internet, Discord is a clandestine network of cozy lounges, dimly lit basements and smoky backrooms.It is where a range of projects and DAOs are built, bonds are formed, schemes are incubated, alphas are leaked, and fortunes are won and lost. If it feels familiar, it's because it is. We spend more time in cozy classrooms, crowded dining halls, and friends' living rooms than in large gyms.
As the internet itself evolves, from web2 to web3, from the internet to the metaverse, everything that comes next is likely to take inspiration from Discord's architecture.Meta doesn't control the Metaverse, and nobody does. Instead, it will be a series of connected spaces built and curated by a community of people who care about the same things.
That new world will be a confusing place for a while.The beauty of centralization is that everyone knows where to go. The decentralized internet will need maps and meeting places, and Discord built a product that's ready for that world.
Today, people who live their lives online navigate a journey from Twitter to Discord to their final destination. Whether Discord ends up being a very important, very valuable company, or one of the most influential and valuable companies in history may depend on whether it goes left or right in the process.
Should it merge with Twitter, enabling the aggregation of vast online content? Should it integrate downstream, stitching Web3 offerings into its own and creating more immersive worlds for users to navigate? In fact, it's already doing it. In June, Discord announced the acquisition of AR startup Ubiquity6.
Discord has become such an integral part of the internet that it's easy to forget that it's a six-year-old product still figuring it out. We don't think Discord knows what Discord wants to be.
This is probably its greatest strength, and the one that makes it, of all its competitors, the best suited to thrive in the age of decentralization.It's nimble but stable, chaotic but organized. It is willing to follow in the footsteps of its users and build in their footsteps.
As a business entity, it has successfully found its own way to make profits, and it is not so exciting to realize that it will bring in billions of dollars in revenue every year in the next five years. This may be its most boring place.
Discord is where the players of the great online game come together, and the game is just getting started. It's both a hidden world and a truly native metaverse infrastructure.
The only thing that can limit Citron and Discord is their ability to turn their imagination into reality.
