This isn't really a debate is it ? You like it for reasons other than value. OK, but its more expensive than other vps providers.

HST voting dapp is being used at the world economic forum, this week.

Thats two I know of, off the top of my head.

As well as the obvious btc and eth being used to purchase stuff everyday, all over the world.

Its actually happening if you bother to look.
