BTC and HIVE are the only genuinely decentralised blcokchains with real world use cases that are independent of crypto speculation.
I have to take issue with the idea that the only thing you can do with BTC is look at it.
I've been increasingly using it for real world payments to service providers.
for everyday people, it’s very hard to use bitcoin. i’m sure there are use cases but for mr. smith down the road, adoption is far away.
Maybe for Mr Smith but not for Mr Hernandez!
BTC adoption for real world usage is extensive and rapidly increasing, its just mainly in the 2nd and 3rd world (which will become the 1st world as a result).
