That's a weird comparison. VR is largely consumer entertainment at a point in time when we have unlimited amounts of it and it requires hardware that most consumers can't afford and lacks content.
Crypto is an investment that provides yield at a point in time where very little can be found, equity markets are overvalued according to many indicators and an increasingly wealthy population in China is seeking investment opportunities not associated with the Yuan that they can't get in any other form.
Crypto has the potential (however likely you think) to completely redefine the world economy via decentralization. A decentralized, unregulated currency that doesn't require intermediaries and can rapidly transfer and store massive amounts of value with relatively limited transaction fees is unprecedented. VR by comparison is largely a mere iteration on existing entertainment systems right now.
