If I needed to pay a merchant for good right now with Bitcoin, I could utilize liquid. It's just another option. Not to mention Volcano Bonds will be issued on Liquid... I don't use it currently because I don't even "use" Bitcoin daily aside from zaps. Merchants do not widely accept it in the US. It's very very early. I'm not sure why the amount of use it currently sees has anything to do with how much utility it actually provides. Bitcoin provides me with a good store of value. Eventually I will be able to utilize lightning for daily commerce. Eventually I'll be able to utilize liquid for institutional regulated investments. The AMP 2FA verification add a second layer of security to funds I have outside of cold storage. It also allows me to use a jade hw wallet to further protect those funds. You can also utilize it for further privacy.

There are many great things you can use liquid for. Just because it's not used right now has nothing to do with how useful it is. 99% of America doesn't accept Bitcoin for goods and services and it's only use is hodling. Should we shut it down to because "no one's using it" ?

It's still early for freaking main net. You can't expect side chains to be popping off. It's a bad argument.

FYI I did use liquid a few weeks ago to swap for an RSA token to exchange for a RSA Tshirt from Blockstream store. I've literally used liquid in the past few weeks. So yea...
