I'm of the same mind, but I worry that the total failure of the VR Meta-whatever is wishful thinking on my part -- because even if it succeeds, I want no part of it. If that means I end up living in a hut in the woods while everyone goggles into the Zuckerverse, then so be it.
At least with cryptocurrency, I could kind of admire the anarchist techno-optimism of it (who doesn't hate banks?), so I felt like I wasn't emotionally invested in it failing when I realized it wasn't going to work.

Everyone fake-emoting at the wall-o-faces in video chat apps is already pretty bad. Blocking out the world with a spying-on-you headset so you can work in a bad knock-off of Second Life is too far.
