Any of the available stock, forex, merchant, payment APIs anywhere. You have zillions of options (stripe, etrade, paypal, a bunch of banks have APIs, soon you'll have a Venmo API, other payment applications are coming up). The notion of a scriptable transaction has literally nothing to do with a blockchain.

Those aren't as convenient for me as blockchain, and of course they all involve centralized counterparties with proprietary APIs. As far as I know there is no bank in my country with a usable API. Blockchain is just a nice and easy open source solution that works great worldwide.
