Sadly, I don't think we will witness a working implementation of Hornet anytime soon. Hornet was designed to be implemented at the core Internet infrastructure in order to operate at the network level. It is practically -impossible- to achieve this level of migration (remember IPv6). Moreover, it requires the deployment of a PKI on an unprecedented scale, which may or may not be secure. However, it's true that some ideas might be extracted and used in other future projects.
