From what I understand tell me if I’m wrong… But I don’t understand why blockchain gets separated from BTC so much… You can’t have one without the other. Like as applications for blockchain increases, so will BTC price. BTC has to have value if it’s blockchain will too. If btc price isn’t held high, there will be no value in mining, no incentive to make more blocks… now you have not much of a blockchain anymore. Like the only reason there are so many blocks, and btc is decentralized, is because of mining rewards… the blockchain can’t exist without btc.
The blockchain can be used for information contracts or records, 2.0 applications… but it can’t be used to transfer currency alone, that is what BTC is for. blockchain can’t do that alone, it needs BTC. When you say plumbing do mean things like Ripple using it’s own cyrpto to connect currencies all aroud the world? So how can you say blockchain not BTC, will do for fin neutrality? like you can’t transact money safety with just blockchain, you need BTC… unless you used ripple, is this what you mean? blockchain can’t be used to send money alone, it can be used alone to keep public records… You need BTC to transfer money. You also need BTC value to drive block development, to even a have a blockchain that grows.
Are you saying BTC will lose all it’s value, and the world will use the blockchain for contracts and records? plumbing for records as opposed to plumbing for currency?
Blockchain will always be the plumbing for BTC, and also the plumbing for 2.0 applications… You can’t have one without the other, the only reason the blockchain exists is because of BTC. Like people don’t mine blocks for fun. It’s for reward.
Why do you make it sound like blockchain will be worth everything, and BTC won’t?
