Okay.

I buy a sweetshop for 1 billion dollars.

Now, immediately after I have bought it, what's it worth?

Is a buyer asking to buy it? If yes, whatever you sell it for.

If no, then you really have no idea what it's worth now, all you know is it was worth 1B to you when you bought it.

What the next person would buy it for. Maybe you buy it for the memes but it doesn't mean another would afterwards.
