>I have never, ever seen a hype wave like this. Cryptocurrency doesn't even come close.

The internet was a hype wave too. Remember the dotcom bubble? And then also remember how eventually the internet actually did revolutionize communication, business and entertainment?

Yes, there's hype. There's also a tangible sense that we're at this 'internet circa 1995' moment. I feel like the hype is warranted.




I wasn't arguing that there's nothing there, just that this hype wave has hit incredibly quickly and hard.

There's far more here than cryptocurrency.
