maybe you should leave metaverse out of it as far as stupidity is concerned?
people were saying the same about the internet and, yes, some of meta projects "RIGHT NOW" look ridiculous.
I am not so sure what would happen in 10 years.

My thesis now is that btc is not an investment for me anymore, it is my savings account (with a pretty nice appreciation rate).
Investments are other unnamed projects with a tiny allocation in each, almost like a seed fund.
Most of those seeds would die, but some, hopefully, pan out....just like bitcoin did looking at it back from 2021 to 2013-14.
