Really I'd wager it's more Snow Crash myself, it's a book that most of these Silicon Valley guys would have grown up with.

Cyberpunk 2077 was just a continuation of Cyberpunk 2020, which came out before Snow Crash.
In reality, I think the tech bros pull from all sorts of media and don't restrict themselves to just one bible.

That's a good point. Snow Crash does lean heavily into the metaverse in a way that is very aligned with Zuckerberg's concept of it. I remember early interviews with some silicon valley guys and when Stephenson was the darling out there l, like with the early Xbox guys or Google Earth.
Maybe Cyberpunk was popular too but just didn't break through to more mainstream news.
