You're conflating the value of blockchains with the value of bitcoin. A bet on bitcoin is a bet that more people will want bitcoins, so the price goes up. This trades a lot like baseball cards that random drug dealers also accept. A bet on blockchain tech is that someone finds a use case for it that isn't a solution in search of a problem.
