Hike reached a unicorn valuation offering emojis, free SMS, customized stickers, and hidden chats, yet eventually folded. Using the Bain Value Pyramid, what is the best diagnosis of its failure?
A
It priced its features too high for the emotional tier it dominated.
B
It operated as a feature factory stuck in the functional tier, never aligning with the emotional, life-changing, or social impact tiers, so its features were easily replaceable.
C
It focused exclusively on social impact elements and neglected table stakes.
D
It selected too many of the thirty value elements, confusing its users.
