The should be though

Don't you feel like crypto is just sucking the blood out of bitcoin like a leech? They all depend on it but pay it little respect.

Not really. Why should they? Im not

I get why you don't like pure shitcoin meme pump n dump coins/tokens, I don't either, but there are a handful of legit crypto communities out there other than Bitcoin. They do certain things better than Bitcoin. Or do things Bitcoin can't or wont do:

-Ethereum has smart contracts and rollups

-Litecoin has cheaper fees, faster confs, and MWEB

-BitcoinCash has cheaper fees, more TPS, safer 0confs DSPs (Double Spend Proofs), more decentralized node software and governance

-Nano is feeless, instant, and uses DAGs so extreme TPS

-Grin uses MimbleWimble so is extremely scalable and private

-Dai permissionless stablecoin

...and more

There are rarely maxis outside of Bitcoin, many in those communities are also Bitcoiners. You demand respect, but there are a lot of Bitcoiners who don't give respect to anything else, and don't even respect the cypherpunk vision of private, untraceable digital cash that came before Bitcoin

Beside the stablecoin, I don't think you need to use any of these other sh$tcoins. Just because they have a gimmick, or like to differentiate from BTC doesn't make them better.

The fact is they all offer things that users want that Bitcoin can't or wont do

They are testnets

Easy

Sh$tcoins are useless

Ok, if they're useless where do I go to use their tech on Bitcoin?

You don't until it gets integrated on bitcoin in some way

Ok, until that happens (if ever), then you're conceding shitcoins are not useless

They are useless as money. OK to test on

Feel free to continue living in your theoretical world

Enjoy your scams

How bout HEX? Is that a good use case? Look at the yield!
