    The valuation of Bitcoin is a completely separate topic than practical use cases of blockchain.

        Once again, we are talking about blockchain, not Bitcoin

        You realize blockchain is used by many large companies for practical purposes, not just by hobbyists swapping magical internet money, right?

        Many large retailers (e.g. Walmart) and pharmaceutical companies use managed blockchain solutions (e.g. IBMs supply chain software) to track end to end process flow and see the pedigree of products at their end destination, because it means the end user doesn’t need to request unfettered access to 6 different companies ERP systems to know when the hell their purchase order is getting delivered
