I mean, sure, if you'd like to ignore the entire point of inherent or intrinsic value, then... go for it? Weird flex, but sure. And no, it's not circular - "negative sum game" is literally baked into the concept of a purely speculative unbacked "asset". More money has to go in than can possibly come out, and there's precisely zilch to show for it. Any place that accepts crypto is simply immediately selling it for fiat, and making the customer pay more than they otherwise would in fees and headache. Anyway, it's fun to be obtuse, I know, but you're pushing the limits here. |

The dollar is also a negative sum game, a purely speculative unbacked "asset".
More effort has to go into keeping track of it than can possibly come out.

Crypto payment processor fees are usually about 1%, which is less than half of the typical credit card processor fee. As for "headache", you'll have to elaborate on that.
