Ethereum = some emulator running some programs....
But for some reason, its never used for anything, except for tokens.

You maybe misunderstood my comment. I know its used in trade. But which one of these services are using ethereum's ability? These are just regular web-based stores.
replied 2320d
No, these are not just stores. These are games, social media or services as eth2

BCH is also capable of this. As in, you need an external program to make the connection bethween the blockchain and the real world, even with ethereum. Ethereum is the wrong approach.

As far as I know the programs are running **on the Ethereum blockchain**. At Bitcoin Cash they run outside the blockchain.

Only the contract can be calculated on the blockchain. Executing a complex program would cost hundreds of dollars per minute. Ethereum is a dud.
