I hope they get it listed soon, but it doesn't really matter if people don't trade it, or have any interest in accumulating it

HoboNickels was made to support charity projects, but this is not possible as long no charity organization accepts it as payment. Since this doesn't work, not many people are interested in HBN and that is really a pity, because HBN has a very good pos network.

A long time ago I wrote to some charity organizations and asked them if they would accept HBN as a means of payment, but I never got an answer. If perhaps more people would do that, the organizations would perhaps pay more attention to such requests.

I would like to see a functional use case too, but that doesn't seem to be necessary for other coins to prosper (be supported financially). Other coins don't even have functioning networks and people still buy them. (OK ... stop the rant)

It's going to be hard if there are no fiat to hbn gateways. If you have to convert fiat to BTC to HBN and back ... Right now, we are struggling to get BTC to HBN pair somewhere.

Like you said, really you just need a Charity to accept HBN, that way the Stake for Charity actually means something. The charity would benefit for no effort, and could convert to BTC if they wanted.

Also, we'd need the developer to be there.

I still support HBN because:
1) network is stable, and works
2) POS is solid
3) it has a niche, a use case that makes sense
4) is a low market cap coin, that has potential for exponential profits, admittedly super low potential
5) the coin has some form of positive morality, which is appealing

I'm willing to help/ invest sometime. If some people want to join together and start an organized effort to recruit a charity, I'll help. I do have some contacts, but I don't want to go it alone.
