Yes, well... I do get the bit about the "tulip delusion." Undoubtedly, 99% of the blockchain space exists purely as pie-in-the-sky. The other 1% may have some merit.

Let's face it... people still buy and plant tulip bulbs. And rare hybrids are spendy, for enthusiasts. But they are not some fancy "gold standard." Just like there was a time that simply forming a company and having dot-com in the name would make people millions. We still have the Internet and loads of web sites... but it's what you DO with them, that matters, not the fact that you shout "Woo-hoo! I have a web site!"
