Let’s be honest - there is not a single usecase which requires blockchain. If somebody has such there is absolutely no reason why they would use existing crypto currency instead of developing blockchain from scratch, which doesn’t need the “currency” aspect at all btw. Do you think companies like Google, Amazon etc haven’t research the blockchain “technology” in depth already? Do you think that these companies who employ literally geniuses can’t build their own blockchain technology but will have to use something like Ethereum or Chainlink? If they had the need for it at all they would have developed it and put it in production by now. Crypto has one use only - speculate, gamble and earn real money by riding the next wave of USDT pumping. Which is ironically what Bitcoin was trying not to be in first place.

>> No.25667398

>>25667060
you are missing the point of blockchain which is trust minimization with a public database and hence automation thanks to an incentive system that are coins/tokens that can be traded for something else, you're a literal normie without any remote kind of insight on technology
