So if I bought it for the memes, the shop itself wasn't worth $1 billion.

I could have bought bike shop, or an apple.

That value wasn't associated with that specific item. It's an arbitrary choice.

It was actually, because value is defined as such. Why do you think buying something for the memes is worth less? Like what mechanism exactly makes it worth less? Seems like that's the fundamental misunderstanding you're having in your comments with others in this thread.
