1) R&D salaries were tax advantaged 2) Tech industry was largely unregulated 3) VC model attracted a ton of money because of potential exponential returns 4) Low interest rates further increased investment into tech 5) Tech companies self-deal a ton, meaning more money into the sector resulted in higher stock prices and exit prices because tech companies buy and sell tech products The whole thing isn't exactly a ponzi scheme, but there are structural elements that are pretty similar.

Industry needed to build lots of things fast. Watch it go downhill now due to oversaturation and less available work.
