TCP/IP is probably the most valuable protocol in the planet, in terms of pragmatic use... but don’t see folks claiming its the 14 most valuable resource on the planet now do you?
Speculation and greed will keep driving this, greater fools will get played... already rich will take their cash happily every 12-18 months

People speculate in everything. If someone invest money and get a return, then you should be happy for them instead of calling greed and being bitter and jealous about it.
