A reported $10B investment from Amazon into OpenAI raises an interesting question: where actually does that capital flow? If the money ends up being spent on Amazon's own services and products, we're really just watching wealth rotate within the same ecosystem rather than create genuine economic value.

This pattern of circular funding between tech giants makes you wonder—how do we measure true revenue when investments morph into internal spending? It's the kind of structural question that haunts traditional finance, but crypto communities have debated this for years with institutional money flows. Real value generation or sophisticated accounting? The distinction matters more than ever.
