Golem is live. Augur is going live today. MakerDAO has a very interesting stablecoin called Dai that's live. Status' mobile app is now mainnet by default. DigixDAO is live. And many more in testnet phases. But don't let reality mess with the cynical perception that the hn crowd wants to portray!

Oh good, all of those blockchains actually function. That totally means that they are worth investing in and that the people who created them give a damn about turning it into something more than an ICO... /s The question was about success, not trivial viability as a blockchain product.

Is Golem actually cheaper than just renting servers from AWS? MakerDAO and DigixDAO are just cryptocurrencies, they don't actually do anything as far as I can tell.
