But in this case they don't really have a moat, any invention is copied or surpassed by the competition within weeks/a few months, and there's no monopoly in sight. And they're all running negative revenue following the same scheme, high chance that if some start failing, it will scare investors, which in turn makes the negative revenue thing harder to do for the ones still in business
