Roblox deep dive

I looked into Roblox. Watching the games on the platform to understand the appeal was suffering, to say the least.


TLDR:

\- It's a great business model, with plenty of untapped monetization

\- Interesting accounting (revenue vs. bookings)

\- Terrible content (I might be getting old, but the games played 10-15 years ago had so much more quality)

\- Currently slightly overvalued

\- Quite some risks (child safety, regulation, virality dependence, but also new game releases, such as GTA VI coming up this November)
