I disagree 100%. Having a reason for existing is, literally, it's meaning.
Something may become meaningless over time if the landscape changes to undermine the reasons for existence, but that underscores the point that 'reason for existence' is another way of saying 'it means something'.
Bitcoin's reason for existence was the bank bailouts of 2008. It has found supplemental reason in the current economic climate of quantitative easing. That means everything.
"Having a reason for existing doesn't mean anything" is an absurd statement.
