Okay i stand corrected. that certainly counts as utility.
You mean... like Bitcoin and all the thousands of cryptocurrencies out there?
Actually I use bitcoin about 4-5 times a week. I get paid in bitcoin. I pay other people in bitcoin. I buy services with it all the time. I transfer it into fiat and back again when need be.
BitCORE on the other hand... you're correct in thinking its value is 99.99% speculative.
I just don't see any originality in it and as such its just another clonecoin riding on bitcoin's coat tails.
If follow your logic, then all altkoins are useless, including Bitcoin Cash. But nevertheless, they exist and develop. Bitcore slowly, but develops. And if the team can attract a large investor, then BTX is waiting for a bright future.
