Idk about the "new wave" of cold plunges but we used to take a 10 minute ice bath after hard track workouts. I can't tell you if it made us any better and from the papers I've read, I don't think there's a lot of scientific data to back up any performance increase. I don't think there's any negative to doing them either, though. If anything you can benefit from the mental toughness from throwing yourself in freezing water for a little while.
Like Denim said, I'm kind of turned away by the cultish attitude of the people that do them. It feels like the same crowd that wore those copper bracelets, then put "brain oil" in their coffee, and now they're obsessed with the carnivore diet and Goggins. It's always chasing the next SECRET THAT SCIENTISTS DONT WANT YOU TO KNOW. My brother in Christ, it's a bucket of cold water

I'll be honest it sounds stupid
It's good to get out of your comfort zone but it seems like there would be ways to do that that offer actual benefit

Same here in regards to running related recovery. In college I would follow up any track workout/long run with rolling out and stretching, then 8-10 min cold plunge that got below 40 degrees. I saw performance benefits and it was the only way I was able to get through two a day workouts/80+ mile weeks.
It worked for me. I know it's not beneficial for gaining muscle mass but I'm not focused on that.
