Clearly you have not studied the subject.

No tulips were ever exchanged during the mania - only contracts for tulips.

The contracts had near-zero storage costs, near-zero transmission cost (just membership in the trading hall), anonymous ownership (sort of), and the process for generating tulips seems fair to me - the more work you do, the more tulips you create.

(Not that is actually mattered - the entire thing happened during the dormant season of the tulip, and no one actually grew any.)
