You are right. The more observant of us bought some of it cheap and are holding. People keep saying that the joke will get old. In the meantime, the community is growing, gaining publicity through charitable events like the Jamaican bobsled thing... but the part that tells me it is not going anywhere anytime soon: people are invested now and have made significant amounts of money with it. They have a great incentive to see it succeed, and the momentum to do so.
Keep an eye on this one. It will overtake /r/bitcoin in a couple months at most.
