This may just mean the bubble is inflating faster than with the previous examples. Mainstream excitement often = it's about to pop.

The time to sell high and bail on crypto was when it became mainstreamed in the general public. I think the exact day was when Elon Musk hosted SNL and mentioned Dogecoin. The time to bail on Real Estate was when the receptionist in your office quit to become a Realtor. The time to bail on dotCom 1.0 was when your dad had a web site idea.
