and, also, let's N.B. that in The Entire History of civilization/humanity every single (bar none!) form/manner and fashion of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiat_money/Currency (at The End of its day) has concluded its "run", er, "exchange rate" at ZERO WORTH/VALUE!
Indeed. Bubbles seem to be part of many get rich fantasy schemes. Oh well.

A blockchain start-up just raised $4 billion, without a live product
Cayman Islands start-up Block.one raised $4 billion as of Thursday, eclipsing the world's biggest initial public offerings this year and more than doubling the next biggest offering of that type.
