That's my point.

>Equating crypto to investing in companies is nonsense.

Why? Even if you go back to "It's not providing any value to society to buy crypto and resell it at a higher price later to some sucker." It's not like me selling a share to someone else provides society value. Unless I do something for society with the money I made, but the same would apply to money based off profitable cryptocurrency investments.

A high share price allows companies to issue stock on the public market and raise money. Just so you know. So there is valid utility to buying stocks.
