History

Historical Context

The dot-com bubble burst in 2000, erasing over $5 trillion in market value and leading to the collapse of companies like Pets.com and Webvan. This followed a rapid rise in internet companies during the late 1990s, fueled by speculative investments. Today, a similar volatility is seen in the crypto market, where 240,000 individuals hold over $1 million in digital assets, raising concerns about sustainable wealth.
