One thing we’ve been able to leverage with cryptocurrency is that the “wallets“ have standardized some public-private key cryptography.
So some aspects of our products dont “need a blockchain for this” but the proliferation of standardized signing tools and size of the niche has made it extremely viable to cater to that market.
PGP had 30 years to get anywhere, and all we have are some pretty bad, cumbersome businesses releasing poorly integrated signing software on modern OS’ that even privacy advocates can barely tolerate for their email and other messages. People want to try to say the same thing about cryptocurrency over half of a decade or a whole decade but they’ll just have to wait for the Ivy league business school case studies to start coming out about the rest of us that have already figured this out for business.
