What remains to be seen if your venture (and others like it) will translate into hundreds of billions of new economy. That was the effect of the iPhone, cloud, and Google Search (analogies used in the article). That's the difference between a "new era" and a cool tool that could of (and should of) been built at university with enough funding to produce it for the public good.
My gut feeling is that this will play out like the dot-com bubble. There was definitely a bubble, it burst and many investors lost money, but the Internet did end up eating the world in the long run.
