how is this comment relavant? Bitcoin is only one of the cryptocurrencies traded on exchanges.

It's the only crypto currency some sites take as payment instead of card.

Correct me if I'm wrong but i have't seen any sites taking anything else so as far as I'm aware all the other crypto currencies have only ever been used for speculation.

And i believe how a currency is used is quite relevant if you ask me.

This is for monero: https://www.projectcoralreef.com/all-stores/

Nothing huge, but something.

There are a few websites that accept other tokens but they're few and far between, nothing like bitcoin.
What do you mean? Even if you're talking about Korean exchanges only, they trade a dozen different cryptocurrencies - Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash, EOS, QTUM, Monero, ZCash, Litecoin, etc. Example:

That's exactly what i said "only one of" not "the only".
