Crypto currencies became purely speculative asses and their volatility ensured that they wouldn’t be useful for payment processing. Has block chain in general made any progress in payment processing?

Any HN topic now just feels like a small jump to LLMs.

I recognize my above is a bit of a strawman, hard to recall exact posts / comments over the years.
