As the economic recession accelerates, one of its few joys will be the charlatans paying on super-easy-mode being exposed for the useless players they are.
I feel that the major cultish hype-cycle of the last decade is rolling back, and my stress levels are dropping.
If we kill off that group of people earning 300k+ in unproductive businesses, all the better. I'd prefer that money be invested in more productive tech, and i'd suppose would generally raise salaries -- since atm, ex hypoth., it is just being burnt
However, just as ponzi in fiance was culturally and legally pushed out --- i'd imagine it will now in tech.
I suspect regulation and cultural scepticism will arise which secures the next two or three decades against this, 'as a rule'
