For years, low interest rates led to an environment where too much capital was pursuing too few opportunities. This is no longer the case.
The startup world has always been subject to boom and bust cycles, and this is a feature not a bug. Tough times force entrepreneurs to get creative and adapt, which in turn helps lead to innovation.

Problem is they don't always use pots. Still a lot of squat toilets in China.

You'll come to see that as a feature, not a bug once you realize that living on the moon isn't all it's cracked up to be.

Just wait until Musk unveils the $40/month red check.
"You buy the blue check... the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You buy the red check... you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes."
