We use blockchain at work ( not by me).

It's not because you haven't seen it in public, that it isn't used.

Also: https://www.fnality.org/home which the bank of england ( mentioned in the article) is a member of to settle between banks.

I also wouldn't see bitcoin as a success. No one that i know of uses it in daily life ( except some being hyped by it and HODL'ing it)

"Blockchain" is close to useless unless it is coupled with being public, permissionless, borderless among other things. The companies that jumped on this "Blockchain" "DLT" nonsense bandwagon to this day do not understand any of the fundamentals. Just using a distributed ledger does not provide any benefits that they try to borrow from likes of Bitcoin. Distributed ledgers have existed for decades.

Anyone that holds bitcoin is using it everyday as a store of value. It's unnecessary to go into all the reasons Bitcoin makes sense in this thread, plenty of resource out there. Suffice to say that by any measure, market determined or otherwise, Bitcoin's usage has constantly (or even exponentially) increased since inception. Either this hoard of people are getting more and more wrong every year, or perhaps you're looking at it from the wrong angle.
