The last mainstream NFT moment I can think of was the Logan Paul CryptoZoo fallout. The speculation side clearly burned out. Really though, I'm curious about what's underneath.

The tooling around minting, provenance tracking, and on-chain ownership verification presumably didn't vanish just because the market did. Did any of that get repurposed for something useful, or did the developer ecosystem around it collapse along with the prices?

Feels like there's an interesting post mortem in what the hype cycle actually left behind, separate from whether anyone made or lost money.
