Virtual data on the internet that currently we take granted for could cease to exist later on, so collecting these data is not worthless at all. There exists many lost media even in the age of internet.

“Virtual” and “collectable” are two words that don’t belong in the same sentence unless it’s, “Online collectibles are virtually worthless.”
And yet nearly every game released on mobile is sells virtual collectibles, all kept in a server that will eventually go down.
Or just repurposed.
When one game stops generating money, it’s time to roll out the next and sell new collectables. And it’s gonna need a server to store it on, right?
