Cool.
Name one successful example.
I mean, it's been, what, 15 years of hype? Surely there must be a successful deployment of a commercially viable and useful blockchain that isn't just a speculative cryptocurrency or derivative thereof, right?
Right?
I can't find the case study, but this blockchain project by IBM was implemented in Singapore and was shown to reduce customs processing times from several weeks to just several hours.
The general idea was that with a successful blockchain implementation, the Singapore government was able to expedite parts of their customs process which normally require intensive human labor, and the use of smart contracts removed the need for having documents sent and resent when all parties had access to the smart contract directly.
There are specific use cases where it can benefit existing processes, but people just think blockchain = crypto.
the real question is what part of this was specific to blockchain, something that would be difficult or impossible to do without it. if you want to put forward this argument you need to at least provide a simple, clear, coherent answer to that.
in this case, i could easily argue a sqlite db hosted on gitea would work better and theres no way to prove im wrong.
First thing I found when I searched for "Maersk IBM blockchain":
A.P. Moller - Maersk and IBM to discontinue TradeLens, a blockchain-enabled global trade platform

Matter Distributed Client Ledger. In use by Apple, Amazon, Google, Samsung, and many more.
Contains all the attestation information for on boarding Matter devices. Where once it was Google Home vs Apple HomeKit vs Amazon Echo / Alexa, supporting devices can now work cross ecosystem.
Since many of these companies are competitors working together. A distributed ledger makes sense to keep everyone honest and provide a level of tech supported governance.

Yes, both git and blockchain tech use merkle trees. No, that doesn't make git a blockchain
I mean... the original Bitcoin?
Blockchain never promised anything related to economic viability or stability. Only that it would ensure a P2P network would remain practically safe from malicious transactions by utilizing a system that rewards verification.
By that standard, every other crypto that people use happens to be a pretty successful blockchain use case.
If you want something stable and not a straight cryptocurrency then I'm pretty XRP qualifies because it also handles fiat and other commodities.
Otherwise, most DDBSs don't use blockchain because they don't need verification requirements relating to transactions and ownership. DHTs are way more common like IPFS.
Who are you? Go make bad arguments elsewhere.
In any case here is a bunch

I stand corrected. One project in Italy and two proofs of concept that never went anywhere.
Truly revolutionary.
Well I use Bitcoin everyday and I’m grateful for it.
Banks don’t support the transactions I need to make.
this gives off illegal vibes
