In 2018, Apple was the first company to have a trillion dollar valuation. Now there are 14 companies with a valuation over a trillion dollars.

I can’t help but notice that the world isn’t tremendously richer than it was in 2018.

In theory I like the idea of crypto. Make an alternate system of money. The only issue is people treat crypto as an investment hoping to make more USD which makes the price move so much that it’s not useful as a currency. (Yes I’ve heard of stable coins).

Like, billionaires just have a bigger number on a computer.

(Note the in theory - not in practice in practice I’m not a crypto guy)
