Decline of Blockchain hype and rise of a common sense

There is a problem of perception which stems from the fact that people mean different things when they say the word “blockchain”.

• particular Bitcoin blockchain
• blockchain as a technology (I would rather say it is an approach)
• private blockchain as an implementation of an approach

If you mix these things you will probably think something like that:

• “blockchain can guarantee that certain information can be trusted”
• “blockchain will validate our transactions”
• “blockchain can help us to get rid of our servers”
