True. But you can’t really buy anything with it.

Which means you need to cash out to fiat $$$. And then you need 3rd party authorisation while jumping through all the KYC hoops.

PayPal accepts cryptocurrencies now, so I don't think it's fair to say you can't buy anything with it. Also there are decentralized marketplaces like OpenBazaar, which are still pretty new too.
