- olalonde 4y agoThe thing is you can't have a decentralized ledger without a native currency. Without a native currency, you lose the mechanism that secures the ledger (mining).
- soco 4y agoAll those international companies already using internal blockchains for all kinds of stuff tend to disagree.
- tirpen 4y agoThere are. There are however extremely few use cases for an immutable distributed ledger, which is sadly the other property blockchains have. There are simply too many cases when there are legal requirements to be able to delete data. DMCA, GDPR, Right-to-be-forgotten, anti-terror-laws, anti-libel laws, and so on.
