That’s just not true. I can purchase food and shelter directly with fiat. (There may be some areas where crypto can do that too, but it’s far from the norm) That’s not a merchant “buying” my money with other representations of wealth, that’s me purchasing food and shelter. Framing it like that is a bad faith argument. And yeah, I’d say stocks without dividends is also a greater fool’s game.
