values and value are different categories.

I completely agree. I was talking about the economic value.

think of the sentiment values(aesthetic/desire/demand/provenance) of art as the values(utility/function/features) of houses and bitcoin.

I've picked art because its economic value is questioned by many. (And Bitcoin value keeps being questioned, as you can see).
I cannot argue that houses do hold economic value, but those value is not questioned (or at least not as heavily as art).

There is both a difference, and there is also a similarities between them. First of all, Mona Lisa has a value right?

It is certainly a higher value than the paint used or the paper it was painted on, it has a value more than most other paintings I assume, don't know if it is the most expensive one, and yet it is certainly not the best painting in the world by a mile, we have seen much much better ones if we are talking about talent or how hard it is, there are paintings out there even leonardo da vinci can't paint, and yet Mona Lisa worths more than them, why? What makes it more valuable if that's the case? The answer to that, is the same as why bitcoin is this much valuable.
