>For most use cases, blockchains seem like a really inefficient database. While blockchains are are neat data structure and might have some great uses in the future, most of the proposed use cases seem better served by a normal DB. Would love to be proven wrong. As a corollary to this, a lot of blockchain "solutions" don't seem to even understand the problems they're purporting to solve. They're shoehorning blockchain into issues where it's absolutely inappropriate and claiming victory. Elections come to mind.
