Bling often being worn by poor people who want to imitate people with real wealth...

What is the difference between virtue signaling, and wanting to set a good example?
-
Motive mostly, although the actions of people trying to set a good example will also tend to have a higher ratio of cost to visibility.

No, bling is often real gold. It's supposed to signal that they're wealthy, while that's not reliable the bling often *does* cost money. Virtue signaling is different in that the bling is always completely worthless, costs them nothing to blab on social media.
