yes, but a new "real cash" as you said, I would instead say "money" doesn't become so instantly. Different to fake security currency fraud stuff as pointed out by @SirToshi.
So of course.
The white paper has delivered on genuine peer to peer electronic cash, negligible fees to make a transfer / payment.
And, it has already delivered vastly more.
Yet, you are asking about uptake and websites you have never heard of. That is a logical jump, and it would be a basic logical fallacy to conclude "That's the tell" accordingly.
No commodity become money instantly.
Will this "BSV" transition from a commodity to money?
All I can say is listen to Crocodile Dundee when he was asked about his chances of success - "better than average mate". Right on.
By the way, what are you doing tonight, nothing? Or are you going to check out or even participate in the foreign Crocodile Dundee action that is going down?

That's actually my own argument you're making, so I can't disagree with it. Yes, money doesn't appear instantly. Bitcoin wasn't cash on day one either, it took people choosing to accept it. I said exactly that. So we agree on that part completely.
But here's where it turns, and it's the bit that matters. "It takes time" is a fair excuse for the one who got there first. The pioneer, breaking new ground, no one ahead of him, you give him time, because there's no one to fall behind.
BSV isn't that. It had time. More time than most. And the coins that came AFTER it, Solana, Tron, the rest, already passed it. They got moving, got accepted, got used, while it was still "taking time." So how does "give it more time" hold up, when the latecomers have already overtaken you?
You don't get to ask for more time when the people who started behind you have already crossed the line. Time was never the missing piece. It had plenty. It spent that time drifting into data and games while the others built the cash use. So the question isn't how much more time it needs. It's why, with all the time it's had, it's behind the ones who started later.
