Theranos was a long time plague to investment in actual promising microfluidics diagnostics technology for years as well. It's finally turning around now with investment starting to flow to the industry especially since COVID, but investors seem to be doing better due diligence now.

There are astounding technology improvements happening today in biotech, but as Warren Buffet pushes, investors shouldn't invest in technologies that they don't understand at all. 

There are a few more Nobel prizes to be won in my opinion until someone strikes it big with CRISPR and it goes mass market. We need better targeting, we need to better avoid the immune system, we need to improve reliability, we need to better understand the effects of an edit, we need to enable to body to be edited in vivo accept the edit and then develop again after said edit, and we need to improve scalability. 

We are making pretty substantial improvements in each of these areas and I have no doubt that gene editing will be a massive deal in time but I expect that will only be the case after a few more Nobel prizes are won.

It’s already a massive deal.  All the vitamin D in the world is made by a CRISPR-edited microbe. The same is true for the fragrance in your laundry detergent, the enzymes used to make your COVID vaccines, the monomer chemicals in your car’s seat covers, the glue in your iPhone, the list is endless.  Industrial biotech is largely driven by CRISPR-edited microbes.

Not many investors know about this too.
