There are many places to actually use it as "real" money. There are plenty of online shops that accept it, and even some real stores that do. I dig it because it's kind of a slap in the face to fiat currencies. People see how kind of pointless it is (the only reason it has value is because they say it does) because they then see that it's exactly what the state run "currencies" is. Only valuable because folks in suits say it is.
