> Where's the value?

The value is partly in Google, the corporation. Google is effectively a bundle of legal contracts, shared knowledge and habits that together tend to spit out money.

The rest of the value is in society. Laws, practices and habits mean that sliver of ownership tends to rise if Google works well, fall if not.

If you prefer to store your savings in whatevercoins, I hope you enjoy whatever you end up with on the other side. But please don't get back to me about it, I am utterly fucking sick of hearing crypto pitches.
