>completely based on the greater fool theory
No, it's not. People desire it for what it can be used for. It has some intrinsic value. Crypto has exactly zero value outside of being a store of value, and because it cannot be used as currency, it's value is determined by what it can be exchanged for in actual currency.
By your logic I would think everything trades on the greater fool theory because it's only worth what someone will pay. Well, yeah, that's true across the board, but people pay for things because they see value in it. Crypto's value is only what it can be sold for.
