You know there's a difference between "people thought" and dollars.

Some people think the earth is flat. Opinions can change very quickly - like 5 years ago, people thought elon musk was the hero of the internet.

Here's the stats on MySpace revenue: It generated $800 million in revenue during the 2008 fiscal year.

And MySpace generates about 10% of that now.

Google could be generating $27 billion in revenue in 2038 and be considered a massive failure compared to what it is now.

I fail to see the point you are trying to get at?
