      Fair enough.

      The dot-com bubble (late 1990s–2000) was when investors massively overvalued internet-related companies just because they had “.com” in their name, even if they had no profits or solid business plans. It burst in 2000, wiping out trillions in value.

      The “Internet hype” bubble popped. But the Internet still has many valid uses.
