Well they have centralized mainet and a working wallet. A lot of other projects only have ERC20 tokens like EOS, VeChain,... and of course no wallet. But they have an easy solution, use ERC20 wallet... The problem here will be when transitioning to their own mainnet there will be lots of exchange, wallet issues. But then again Cardano has some of this issues now. I would say that in this sense Cardano has a big head start here.
Full disclosure I own all this coins.
