Too Long; Didn't Read
Does blockchain have any genuine, value-add use cases? I recently asked a few developer friends about the potential real-world uses of blockchain tech. The deniers either said that blockchain tech doesn’t solve a need that cannot already be solved with existing tech. And then, I see the majority of applications as an addition to existing tech for security and authorisation rather than a complete replacement. I think the maximalists who think “blockchain will solve everything” are a little over enthusiastic - especially with blockchain solutions in their current state.
