Riders and drivers who got subsidized rides and income, were probably the largest beneficiaries.

Uber employees, VC partners, on the Silicon Valley side. A lot of other tech workers have benefited from the upward price pressure exerted on developer salaries not just in Silicon Valley but around the world.

Who got screwed, if Uber’s valuation never recovers - late stage investors, companies doing similar things such as in food delivery.

I was a big fan of the $25 referral bonuses in the early days. Probably saved a few hundred dollars overall.
