The Hyperloop is dead, nine years and hundreds of millions of dollars after it captured tons of media hype. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-12-21/hyperloop-one-to-shut-down-after-raising-millions-to-reinvent-transit

Not mentioned in that article: Musk admitted in 2019 that the Hyperloop was never a real project, and that the actual purpose of it was to distract funding and attention and get California’s high-speed rail canceled.
