1 sat/byte transactions will still clear the mempool, eventually. I don't think you need payments for porn to settle immediately. There are workarounds a business could use like speculatively accepting payment before a confirmation using heuristics e.g. the customer's past history. It's not an ideal situation, but the market decided this is the coin to use.

You could argue the market decided it was the store of value to use, like gold, not the coin to use. Or it is still being pumped by bitfinex/tether, tough to tell.
