https://www.feedough.com/innovation-adoption-lifecycle-curve/We went through the phase of being the innovators when this was still an unknown industry, to being early adopters when vtubers started growing, to now seeing the early majority dilute the space.
Now that this has become an established market with a recognized social status, it attracts greedy narcissistic people who want money and power and don't care about values.
In the initial very early phase those who were present had something special and believed in something.
This is why you see a general degradation in this industry with each newer generation.
The original generation had soul and a reason to be here that was different from greed only.
Sora and many of the initial generations are a good example of this.
Coco started popularizing vtubers which attracted the bigger audience and greedy people, but it would have happened on its own without her influence.
