The real Bitcoin is the Plebs it makes along the way.
Even if Bitcoin somehow exploded or disappeared, there are now millions of highly activated plebs swimming in the same stream in the same direction.
Think of the network power in terms of hashrate and see that as what it represents: conviction, investment, hope, rebelliousness. Expertise.
You could suck all the USD out of Bitcoin, but you can't drain that pool of potential.
Bitcoin isn't revolutionary because of how expensive it is today, it is valuable because of that pool of revolutionary momentum.
