I was very disappointed to see California going pro-crypto. Texas, not surprised. But CA is supposed to be environmentally-friendly, and crypto is anything but! Crypto and NFTs need to die in a fire, preferably in the heart of the sun. Betamax at least was a good format, the mistake Sony made was not licensing it until it was too late. The technical specs were far superior to VHS and Betamax continued to be used by broadcast stations basically until rewritable DVD and digital formats swept everything away.
