This also opens up the opportunity for a lot of lifestyle businesses. It may, at first, seem like a major downside having a venture backed startup competing directly with you. However, they are likely following an all or nothing strategy and there is a chance they go bust.
If they end up closing down or pivoting they have helped to create the market and all their users will be looking for an alternative.
