It's the 21st century version of a certificate of authenticity. Used to be a time where you'd buy some collectible, jewelry, etc and it would come with a certificate that 'proves" it's real and people would take that as "proof". Like seriously? If they're willing to fake the collectible/jewelry, they're willing to fake a paper certificate, or in this case fabricate a Blockchain out of thin air.

Several thousand dollars on a purse that most probably wouldn't pay close enough attention to notice / nor care explains all of it really.

Reminds me of carbon credits
An authentic product on a fake blockchain. It works because no one who wants the bag cares that the certification is flawed

Marketing convinced people to destroy their health with the worst dietary regimes, while building tribes around overpriced branded T-shirts—mocking those who couldn't afford such absurd luxuries. People remain subject to propaganda and cling to the illusion that voting is a meaningful way to express their ideas within a consensual framework. Most humans are, quite simply, stupid.

My teenage daughter today told me how stupid designer purses were and that the only reason people buy them is because they are insecure and need a way to flaunt their wealth (Dad win #1)). I asked if she thought I was wealthy based on how I dressed and she just laughed (Dad win #2).
