Neither of those systems would scale. Have you ever heard of a paxos/raft scaled beyond ~9 odd members in production? Blockchain's also provide data redundancy

Neither of those systems would scale. Have you ever heard of a paxos/raft scaled beyond ~9 odd members in production? Blockchain's also provide data redundancy and security between entities. It'd be way more effective way to communicate commodities, medical records, etc as the security, data model, and system API are all integrated into the blockchain model. Having the "database" be the API would be great for those of us dealing with supply chain. Want information from your supplier in Shenzhen? Good luck with current systems! Paxos/raft do nothing to resolve data access and verification.
