Why Agrello makes for a compelling Blockchain Use Case?
Currently law and agreement/contract execution is mainly still carried out in an exhaustive, human resource intensive, expensive and manual way. What value do you get through computerising and automating in a blockchain over a traditional compute or centralised model? You gain the value of automation with both compute models. Indeed with cheap cloud compute some of what Agrello is doing is indeed possible. The problems you face with the centralised model are those of privacy, ownership, jurisdiction and consensus on the state of any given contract. If you centralise the process how can you be sure the central body cant be bought off or biased in some way? How can you be sure your contract wasnt tampered with or changed? Well this is exactly what blockchain was invented for, the distributed consensus across the decentralised peers who all own the picture without any centralised body being held accountable or able to skew the true state or picture.
Thanks Aneesh and Tonka!
