“Crypto is worthless.”
So is fiat money—if you think about it.
Quick thought experiment 👇
The word fiat comes from Latin, meaning “let it be so.”
Fiat money has value not because of what it’s made of, but because we collectively agree it does.
A €20 note isn’t food.
It’s not shelter.
It’s just paper—yet it works because trust and acceptance make it work.
That’s why the common criticism
👉 “Crypto has no intrinsic value”
isn’t wrong.
But it’s incomplete.
Most modern money has no intrinsic value either.
So the real question isn’t:
“Is it backed by something tangible?”
The better question is:
“What can it actually do?”
Crypto and blockchain are useful because they allow people to:
transfer value globally without permission or intermediaries
truly own digital assets, not just rent them from platforms
verify transactions through code instead of blind trust
Of course, not every token matters.
There’s speculation, scams, and hype—just like in traditional finance.
But dismissing all crypto as “worthless”
is like saying the internet has no value because scams exist.
Bad use cases don’t cancel out good technology.
Money is a tool.
Value is shared belief plus real-world utility.
Crypto isn’t magic.
But as an open, global, digital system for moving and owning value,
it introduces something genuinely new.
And that’s where its real value may lie. 🚀#WhaleDeRiskETH #GoldSilverRally #BinanceBitcoinSAFUFund #BTCMiningDifficultyDrop
