"Straight" is not possible. You have to prove that your "fins" have value in general. This is done only by selling them for bitcoins!
so, ... according to your reasoning, you 'claim' then, that ether has no value then, because a '
fin' (= 'abbreviation' of
finney = milli-ether = pwei = petawei = 0.001 ether ) ?

As long as there are no much shops which accept ether as 'pay method' , there is going to be those 'misconceptions' that ETH has no 'value' ... just my 2 cents of opinion

->
In contrast, Chapman expects Ethereum to underperform during a
recession because its more closely entangled with the equity markets than other cryptocurrencies. Accordingly, Ethereums trajectory generally follows broader stock-market trends.
Because Ethereum is a developer-focused blockchain, its very much dependent on how many companies use the Ethereum platform to build their projects. If those companies were to go out of business,
Ethereums relevance and, subsequently, its price, would undoubtedly be affected.
Why not making more 'effort/promote' ether as a 'common pay-method' ??
