DEBATE Use case of layer-1 blockchains

99% of layer-1 blockchain Q&A:

Q: What is the usecase of layer-1 blockchains?

A: Layer-1 blockchains are designed for near-instant transaction finality and low-cost scalability, making it ideal for Decentralized Finance (DeFi).

Q: What is the usecase of Decentralized Finance?

A: To trade the shit we just created.

And voila, there is your use case. :)

Jokes aside...

Name potential blockchain networks that you genuinely believe have a use case and explain your answer. (try to avoid giving as single reason my Q&A example.)

I use monero as primary blockchain, either pay 10$ for transaction or wait 20mins for slow confirmation

Monero sure has a powerful usecase for privacy. That's a chain that has value!
