7 unexpected uses
for blockchain
Yes, blockchain is the technology behind Bitcoin. But just like
the internet is more than email, blockchain is more than
cryptocurrency. Check out these seven examples of how
blockchain is changing the world.
Product tracking
Track a single item – such as an
apple – throughout the entire supply
chain process. The benefit? Easier
inventory management.
Legal agreements
Trace intellectual property rights and
payments. If you sign a contract for
digital photos, you can verify the
seller has the authority and right to
sell them.
Elections
Encrypt votes and allow private
individuals not only to confirm who
they voted for, but also to verify that
all votes were properly counted.
Government-issued documents
Identify information such as ID
cards, Social Security Numbers and
medical information. This could help
homeless individuals who may not
have easy access to items that
prove identity.
Stock market trades
Reduce costs for trading on the
stock market by virtually eliminating
manual errors.
Medical records
Store medical records securely so
medical professionals can access
vital health data, no matter where
you are.
Financial Transactions
Increase compliance and combat
fraud by tracking assets and debt.
Employers could automatically
manage and track payroll and
benefit expenses.
