Did anyone apart from the VCs hoping for another Snapchat think it was that good? Even the founders, infamously, cashed out early.
Same applies to the little-lamented Color, which was universally panned on here for more than just the excess represented by a $30m initial fundraise.
As for companies I thought could be huge and didn't really make it, a 4x return on Hunch was pretty unspectacular. I think there's a huge company waiting to happen in the [meta]event search space, but that's not borne out by the companies that have tried it.
