I'm not dismissing the idea that "some" investors believe that, I'm dismissing the idea that they're a big enough group to matter in anyway. Or that they're likely to believe it for very long over looking at how much USD they think they'll cash out for. And if they were looking for a stable store of value, an asset under enormous speculation is a terrible choice.

The real estate comparison is also irrelevant: unlike any other asset, cryptocurrency doesn't do anything useful.
