    With Afterpay now making rapid expansion in the US to follow the meteoric rise Australia, this is reminding me of the early stages of other disruptive technologies when they began to also experience viral growth


    Uber - disrupting taxi industry.
    AirBnB - disrupting hotel industry
    Netflix - disrupted movie rental industry
    Paypal - disrupting fund transfer industry

    Afterpay - disrupting retail payment industry

    Valuations of Afterpay peers are in the tens of billions

    The interesting thing is that the US institutions threw billions of investment dollars are these companies as they recognised the potential for these companies to disrupt the status quo prior to earnings traction .

    With Afterpay having moved into the US and becoming a household name, it is only a matter of time before the same happens to Afterpay as the institutions clamour for a slice of this pie.

    Should all go to plan, Afterpay should supersede $20 billion Atlassian as Australia's great technology export.
    A Nasdaq listing or takeover could be coming quicker than we think .
