Thank you, this is the most complete answer anyone's given me, and I can tell you mean it. So let me ask honestly, because you might be the one who can finally show me.
You say the data business is the soil, and peer-to-peer cash is the flower that blooms from it. I love that picture. So my question is simply about the root that connects the two. How does a company paying to store logistics or registry data on-chain actually put a spendable coin in my student's hand, and a till that accepts it on my corner shop's counter? I can see the soil. I just can't see the root that grows the flower. Can you draw me that line?
On the suppression — I hear you, and delistings are real. But help me with this. Solana was called a dead chain and written off, and it grew back anyway, because people kept using it. If the peer-to-peer cash use were really there underneath, wouldn't a delisting slow it rather than erase it? People route around exchanges all the time. So does the empty traffic point to suppression, or to something simpler?
And last one, gently. Everything good in your answer is "waiting," "will bloom," "sooner than you think." I've heard that for years now. So what would it actually take, and by roughly when, for the flower to show? Give me one marker. Because I'd genuinely love to be wrong, and I'm patient — I just need to know I'm waiting for a sunrise.
