Last week, @cz_binance said in a podcast chat with Anthony Pompliano that Binance made a cumulative profit of $1 billion in the first 3-8 months (October 2017 - March 2018). #Binance should be the fastest commercial company to reach this milestone. Out of curiosity, I asked both Grok and ChatGPT, how many years did it take for other tech/internet companies to get a $10 net profit? The leaderboard after the comprehensive answers is as follows, and there may be details that are missing but not a big problem. Tesla - 17 years (2003-2020) Uber - 14 years (2009-2023) Nvidia - 13 years (1993-2006) Apple - 11 years (1976-1987) Alibaba - 11 years (1999-2010) Microsoft - 10 years (1975-1985) Xiaomi - 10 years (2010-2020) Amazon - 9 years (1994-2003) Google - 7 years (1998-2005) Facebook - 7 years (2004-2011) Tencent - 7 years (1998-2005) ByteDance - 7 years (2012-2019) Pinduoduo - 6 years (2015-2021) Binance - 1 year (2017-2018)
