With the help of Shib, you can already make purchases at more than 140,000 retail outlets (bitpay, newegg, nowpayments, flexa, travala), the number of users is approaching 1,100,000 and this does not include users on exchanges. All this, in my opinion, makes the token very attractive lately, you just need your own blockchain to reduce transaction fees and the coin will be no worse than others.
