Have you not heard of Monero? Untraceable value transfer.

Because blockchains can't scale

>>11607020
IF XMR isnt the killer app Crypto was a mistake. Also blockchain is a dumb buzzword that wasn't even in the BTC whitepaper.

>>11607020
Blockchain as a whole has probably caused at least hundreds if not thousands of suicides, doesn't that count?

blackpill: there's dozens of blockchain killer apps, the first of which being bitcoin (core, pre-2015). blockchain is so revolutionary most of the world will lag behind for a long time. count at least a full generation before a decent number of educated people even grasp use cases

>blockchain is a dumb buzzword
pretty much this. the whole
>blockchain is the real value not bitcoin
is a retarded boomer meme. the real value is decentralisation and censorship resistance.

Killer apps are: bitcoin, monero, proof-of -existance like opentimestamps.
But the latter only needs to include a few dozen merkleroots into the bitcoin blockchain per day and it doesn't need a useless token, so nobody talks about it.

Augur is highly fascinating

>>11607020

zoom out, you can be your own bank

>>11607020
Because killer apps don't need to run on blockchain. It's a solution looking for a problem to solve.

>>11607020
Bitcoin is hard money. That is a killer app

>opentimestamps
Thanks anon, first useful thing I've seen here for weeks. Thought I'd have to somehow roll my own solution for a side project but this will help bigly.

>>11607020

It does, it's the privacy currencies(Monero, Nerva etc etc). Everything else is pretty much just useless hype at this point.

>>11607053
I heard the wallet is shit

>>11608004
Guess you hang around brainlets. Try monerujo or mymonero if you're similarly mentally challenged.

You can create timestamps with your normal transactions without op_return.

The killer app has been there since the white paper. You haven"t realized it yet, but you will soon

>>11607020
id love to see blockchain uber

>>11607053
but that's just a digital currency
sure technically the dollar bill was a 'killer app',
but its just a way to transfer value back and forth

>>11607069
same point as above

>>11607075
only if you believe in overpopulation

>>11607450
yes but at a cost of a massive amount of convenience

>>11607458
sure they don't, but still, when's a blockchain killer app going to exist?

>>11607991
same point as first

>>11608231
help me realize

>>11608402
I don't even know what this means

>>11608591
>I don't even know what this means
uber but without a single entity owning all the data
"duber" will use chainlink to feed in car and user position

>>11608591
Zoom out, faggot

>>11608634
seems like a hindrance

first, you need the data to optimize and refine the algos that handle everything about rides

second, does it really give a big enough benefit to users to the point where they want to ditch uber?

>>11608670
>seems like a hindrance
which part of my post gave that away? just having to install a different app on your mobile?

>big enough benefit to users
1. privacy of data, some people will care
2. no middleman to get a slice of the money, more money to drivers and better price for users
