The point is that these things are free already. There is nothing to invest. Linux took the creativity and hard work of several people. Nobody involved in it actually got richer as you might imagine people did with shitcoins... People are investing into cryptocrapto like it is some fintech.

It is fintech. Since they carry utility it intrinsically has value. Since thousands are unique that value is amplified. If the was a limited number of linux images and they could not be copied, you would see them carry a value.

"Linux took the creativity and hard work of several people. Nobody involved in it actually got richer as you might imagine people did with shitcoins..." Not necessarily true. Both RedHat & VA Linux gifted Linus Torvalds with stock during the dot-com boom, enough for him to become independently wealthy.
