There are induction wok stoves. Only stumbled upon them recently myself as well https://cdn.webshopapp.com/shops/99626/files/334365439/maxima-induction-wok-wok-

  - Not arguing, just repeating arguments I have heard - Not sure if you can achieve wok hei with those (which seems to be THE thing that differentiates wok cooking from anything else). Some background from the nyt: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/09/04/dining/stir-fry-recipe-wok-hei.html https://www.nytimes.com/2020/09/04/dining/stir-fry-recipe-wo...

  This isn't actually that bad if you want wok hei, you can't easily get it on consumer gas stoves either. You can use a blowtorch to get a similar effect as the flames from a high powered burner licking up the sides of the wok [1]. Though, you can't really toss food with an induction stove, so that's a problem. Regardless, I'd still rather have a propane jet engine in the yard lol.
