In general, all derivatives of Dogecoin as well as anything that runs on their chain is useless for all practical purposes.
I hold this to be true for 99% of altcoins. I have never made any secret of the fact that Monero is the only altcoin I use, exactly because it achieves a solution to a real world problem which bitcoin does not, that being completely private transactions. If anyone can show me a token which achieves a solution to a real world problem, then there is a discussion there to be had about whether or not that would be a viable or useful addition to bitcoin. I am not aware of any such token.

Conversely, we can look through the history of this forum, of Reddit, of Twitter, and see literally thousands of different altcoins and tokens which have been launched or promoted for various reasons, which have all either faded away in to complete obscurity over the span of a couple of years, or exit scammed/been hacked and resulted in all the regular users/foolish greedy people losing everything.

The point is that most run to some other shitcoin to do these things instead of using Bitcoin..
Because that's where the foolish greedy people are. It's a self fulfilling prophecy. These token creators don't want to launch their no-real-world-use trash on bitcoin because launching on some useless altcoin means there are more gullible people to scam. And anyone who is actually using bitcoin as intended is quite happy for all this scam activity to take place elsewhere.

As above, what useful things are you envisaging which should be conducted on bitcoin instead of some shitcoin?
