Failed to create bootable USB (Monterey)

Based on How to create a bootable installer for macOS - Apple Support

I tried to create a bootable USB drive with my 16GB usb stick. However, i got the following error:

bryan@BryansMacStudio ~ % sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Monterey.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/macOSMontereyUSB 

Password:

Ready to start.

To continue we need to erase the volume at /Volumes/macOSMontereyUSB.

If you wish to continue type (Y) then press return: y

The bless of the installer disk failed.

Could this due to the usb stick hardware issue?
