Uses for Blockchain

Decentralised Internet

Programmers are currently working on decentralised internet platforms to distribute all the functions of the internet over distributed nodes which will increase the resiliency of the world wide web.

Smart Contracts

Smart contracts can be built on top of a ledger and operate as decentralised applications. These programs can run functions which are becoming more sophisticated and may diminish the need for standard legal contracts.

Decentralised Markets

One challenge with cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin is the need to trade on centralised exchanges which can be shut down or hacked. Decentralised markets allow trading without having to trust a third party

Stock exchange

In traditional stock market there is typically a delay of 2–3 days for settlement of stocks and bonds. Trading stocks on a block chain is more cost effective and provides instant settlement

Real Estate

Property titles, transactions and historic value can be built onto the block chain providing transparency and reducing the time and cost associated with real estate transactions

Authenticated Voting

While digital voting can be susceptible to tampering, blockchain voting technology is verifiable and would allow anybody to audit the blockchain to confirm votes are time stamped and legitimate

Distributed Cloud Storage

Distributed cloud storage avoids the need to place faith in large centralised companies where personal data is vulnerable and pricing may escalate to cover the expanding number of data servers

Decentralised Social Networking Sites

Social networking sites are centralised and are prone to censorship of information. Decentralised social media platforms such as Steemit mitigate this and financially reward the content creators

Proof of Ownership

Items that are purchased could be tracked on the blockchain to demonstrate proof of ownership and to prevent the sale of stolen goods which may eventually help to reduce crime

Overview

These are just some of the possibilities that come with the new technology. The biggest one, however, is missing on the list and that’s advanced profiling and customized websites
