Only if you use a circular definition of made it through which means became a trillion dollar company.
Plenty of companies made it through but never recovered their dotcom market cap or prestige, a few prominent examples: Csco, hpq (only recently passed the 2000 price), yhoo, emc, vrsn, real networks. There were plenty of also-rans who limped through but didn’t justify the hype pricing years later, and the real revolution came to fruition years later with mobile computing and mass-market online stores, but there was definitely underneath it all an obvious and real information revolution which the dotcom bubble was merely irrational euphoria about - everyone knew sonething big was happening, even if they rejected the crazy prices.
I sincerely don’t think this crypto bubble is similar, because there is no there there amd because almost all assets are severely overpriced right now - crypto is full of scams and nobody is actually using it any more as a currency, this means all these joke coins worth 100s of millions are going to zero, no doubt just after joe public buys in. There’s a reason coin base insiders are frantically selling as soon as they can and more and more frauds are coming to light. Even the more legitimate companies in this space are full of fraud.
