I saw a telemarketing advertisement today featuring this scissor knife. Basically you can chop lettuce and veggies in a fancy way without putting them down to a board, using a knife. It looks good but any good chef would still stick to the old way of chopping veggies. Part of the reason is that you can have more control of the angles and sizes. Another reason is that the surface of the board is more sturdy and in the long run, if you are chopping enough veggies, it is more efficient.
I believe that some people will use this knife/scissor thingy and in fact it might replace the old knife/board combo. It will be useful for some people but definitely it won't be that useful for most people in a way that will replace the knife and board.
Blockchain technologies, are much like those pair of scissors. It might look fancy and useful and revolutionary at first glance but in reality very few businesses will find it useful — even if its usage for those companies might prove to be revolutionary.
Blockchain technologies are the future, no doubt. Thing is, not all future screams "blockchain". This is not exactly Internet 2.0 but rather a small upgrade of some part of the internet. For some industries like fintech is going to be revolutionary but for most others is rather redundant.
