didn’t meta and apple try turning VR into the ‘Next big thing’ very recently, i mean they got distracted with LLMs but they could always try again.

I still dont think blockchain; the tech itself is a grift, it does what it promised to do(not BTC, other coins that improved on it, BTC itself has turned into a big game of chicken), has uses beyond its initial purpose. Its just that the tech attracted grifters like flies, and their actions were transparent(yet people still fell for it)
