Could you give me a practical example of how you would use one to solve this problem that couldn't be just as easily solved without one?

- davidgerard 9y agoThere are none. The only practical example where a blockchain does things a centralised database doesn't is a Bitcoin-style cryptocurrency. (Even then, proof-of-work mining naturally recentralises, as we see with Bitcoin. Ethereum claims to be planning to move to proof-of-stake, but there's no working implementation or date for this.)
