Even if there is a finite number of coins, at that point it's just speculation and economics of supply and demand. That still doesn't explain any "value" added attribute to it. Oil has a finite number of supply, that affects its pricing and supply and demand, but it also serves a purpose( which would explain its value. Someone coming up with an ICO to fund a project that has no benefit or value whatsoever other than to say here's a finite number of coins well that's clearly speculation and if anything pump and dump 101.
