Stripe Co-Founder Talks SaaS Is Dead: No Signs of Growth Slowing, but Not Contradicting a Pessimistic Outlook

BlockBeats News, February 26 — John Collison, co-founder and President of Stripe, recently stated in an interview that claims SaaS (Software as a Service) will face an end are not supported by data. There are no signs of a slowdown in the growth of the software industry; on the contrary, various sectors are showing strong growth. This phenomenon is not contradictory to the pessimistic outlook—people may have changed their expectations for the long-term prospects of 2030 or 2035, and this shift may not yet be reflected in recent data.

The current market seems a bit overly volatile. It’s undeniable that the marginal cost of producing software is clearly decreasing, and there is no disagreement on this fundamental point. However, at the same time, the market’s reactions appear somewhat unpredictable.
