Hello everyone.
When I see there are too many ICO and shitcoins on novaexchange. I keep asking myself: do we really need blockchain technology?
In case of Bitcoin. Of course, I agree.
What about ETH? I agree too.
But, have a look at the others on the market. I don't even know why should people use their service. There is no real use in real life.
An ad management system on blockchain? - We already had Google Ads & Facebook Ads.
A social network on blockchain? (steem) - Do we? I don't see anything but a centralized forum hosted on a random hosting using its currency to pay for the writers.
There are too many projects that we don't really need it on blockchain.
Sometimes, I think there is a black swan (Blockchain is useless in real life) lurking around.
You perhaps might be thinking with the negative side of view. There might be no use of such projects in the decentralized world but do you really think, how can the decentralized currencies move forward without really developing such platforms. Even considering the examples you stated, there is something unique in each of those platforms which makes the peoples across the globe come for them.
They have the ability to pay their writers which any other platform like facebook, etc can't afford to. The opportunities to quickly make profits in least hardwork is really great in terms of the cryptocurrencies rather than the centralized systems.
