The finance industry and others are moving to a blockchain, it has not yet been adopted in full or implemented.
my personal suspicion is that the finance industry will never find a use for a public blockchain.
i've heard of people who've attended some of these professional conferences coming back with the impression that very few of the attendees knew anything about it and were there to look cool. but that's ok because real people will force them to deal with it whether they like it or not.
I work on finance industry, with IT at a Multinational Bank, directly with CEOs. I can confirm most people working on research and attending weekly conferences within banking corporation CEOs know NOTHING - I repat:
NOTHING about crypto and some top analysts don't even have had contact with Bitcoin or any other coin whatsoever. Such a shame.
As nearly a perfect implementation of a trustless blockchain as Bitcoin is, the Financial/banking industry has absolutely zero interest in using it, for ONE reason only:
Because they can't corner the Bitcoin market at this point. And a market that they can't
corner and/or
rig (in favor of the wealthy elite) is a market that they can't
control.
That should be telling us all something. That we should be using Bitcoin only, and use absolutely nothing that the Finance world would eventually promote.
