So lets say I buy 100 ENG coins.

Who benefits from this? Yes I know the person or the exchange that sells it does, but that not what Im talking about.

What does buying the coins do for the developers? The project? The network?

Lets admit it, aside from the store of value and being able to pay for things, investing in alt coins is really just a digital coin collection.

Are we not all just picking our favorite coins and hoping that others think they are special and buy them which accounts for the value?

Its really just like investing in comic books, trading cards, art, or real coins.

No one has ever been able to explain to me why buying these coins helps in the functional use of them.

Before anyone answers, yes blockchain tech is great and will be used in the future, I am not disputing that, and to all thecrazy crypto zealots that say its a sign from above to bestow wealth on the needy or any other crap like that.....spare me.

If you buy a coinds the people in the market will benefits of it. If there is a circulation of money everyone in the market will benefits not just the creator of the coins.
