In Taiwan, Hainan and other places where betel nut is produced, there are many people who consume betel nut, and the one who really makes it an industry is Xiangtan.
Unlike other endemic foods in Xiangtan, betel nut was listed as a first-class carcinogen by the World Health Organization along with tobacco, alcohol and arsenic as early as 2003. In 2013, although the news of CCTV's "Betel Nut as a First-Class Carcinogen" had a certain impact on the betel nut industry, in 2014, there were still more than 30 large-scale enterprises engaged in betel nut processing in Xiangtan, with an annual output of more than 200,000 tons and an annual output value of nearly 10 billion yuan. In 2017, the total output value of The betel nut industry in Xiangtan exceeded 15 billion yuan, an increase of about 25% over the previous year. The local government also issued the "Opinions of the People's Government of Xiangtan County on Supporting the Development of the Betel Nut Industry", proposing to strive for the sales revenue of the betel nut industry to achieve 30 billion yuan in 3 years and 50 billion yuan in 5 years.

Today's betel nut, which starts at a retail price of 15/20, has long become a high-end consumer goods with financial attributes, and it is no longer a snack positioned by the xylitol brothers, but it is in the company of tobacco and alcohol, and it is getting closer and closer to hard currency (but there is no way to develop the function of value preservation and appreciation at present).
