Buying magical beans so you can have some beans once everyone stops believing in the magic.

In the old days before crypto there was a rule on ebay that you could only sell physical items and any digital thing could only be a sweetener for a physical good being sold (eg: buy this device and I'll email you this software). This ofc resulted in digital goods being sold with a token physical item so you might see for instance a keyring for $40 with a bonus windows OEM license. If that license didn't end up working I'm sure you would take solace in that you still have your $40 keyring though.
