I’ve seen a few comments about how the end of cheap investor cash is over and so companies that relied on it will go out of business, with online food delivery platforms in the scope. So answer me this, which will survive? Will any survive?

Each option resolves YES if the service is still operating and orders are able to be placed in at least three major cities (>500k citizens) on the day the market closes.

If any company goes bankrupt and is not acquired as a going concern (i.e. no more than a month of interrupted operation) then I may resolve it NO early.

If a company is acquired then their option continues to refer to their new owner and will do so as long as the service continues to operate, regardless of rebrands.

If a company is rebranded but otherwise continues to operate then their option will refer to any new name as long as consistency of service is maintained with no gaps in order-taking greater than one month.

Why would ceasing operation completely ever be preferable to being acquired and merged? You can buy the brand without taking on all the debt, right?

If anyone can think of any specific clarifications you’d like to see around corporate evolution then let me know.

@Noit I think you should clarify that if these services are acquired and/or renamed but don't "cease to exist" in the usual sense, then they should still count under their new names and/or ownerships.

(Also explaining my bets: all four of these services are at least about a decade old now, and Grubhub is almost two decades old.)

@duck_master I’ve added another line at the bottom, do you think those last two sections cover it?

@Noit I think it does; thanks 🙏
