WhatsApp's Insane Growth Continues: 100 Million New Users in 4 Months

WhatsApp cofounder and CEO Jan Koum said on Monday that the messaging app has topped 700 million monthly active users. 

In a Facebook post, Koum wrote, "Today, we're thrilled to share that WhatsApp has more than 700 million monthly active users. Additionally, every day our users now send over 30 billion messages."
