    This is literally how amazon works.

    They operated at a big loss until people were only using their platform and then hiked prices.

    They literally price undercut up and coming websites by a ridiculous margin (20-30% sometimes) subsidized by their rich benefactor loans until they were driven out of business and then jacked up their prices to make profit.

    The whole game is getting people using your platform as exclusively as possible and then return to normal prices once you gave enough market share.
