I can consume HN content, turn around and use it to derive value. That value spills onto others in various forms or maybe I keep all the value for myself (can't think of how I would horde value without sharing because I would need to offer something to others to receive value myself). Nonetheless, markets don't operate efficiently when people horde shit.
