It may have real value, but people paying money for it doesn’t prove that. Genocide requires a lot of money, so is it valuable?

A quarter of a million Afghan civilians died at war in the last 20 years due to a sham war predicated on phony evidence. This alone should tell you that all sorts of horrible atrocities are valuable.

Crypto still looks and smells like a huge sham, tho, so I’m inclined to agree with your other points.
