    Those who do know it have a strong bias toward new tech, which blinds them from reality or any possible negatives. We’ve see this countless times in tech. Like when NFTs were going to change the world, you couldn’t tell those guys otherwise without being branded out of touch or someone who doesn’t understanding the tech.

      I mean, NFT’s is a ridiculous comparison because those that understood that tech were exactly the ones that said it was ridiculous.

      Wasn’t it the ones who didn’t understand NFTs who were the fan boys? Everyone who knew what they were said they were bloody stupid from the get-go.
