      It’s pretty useless. It’s proven too slow and inefficient for 99% of the promising use cases and despite having been out for like 15 years, no one has done anything particularly important (and also legal) with it. I’m not sure a typical person would miss anything if the whole ecosystem disappeared tomorrow.

        im curious about the slow and innefficient part. Its a ledger and I was under the impression it was perfect for following a supply chain to keep track of shipments. I have sorta been surprised it has not been used for this

          Why would you use blockchain to track shipments when you can easily do the same with a standard database? What would be the gain?
