The current reaction to blockchain is indicative of all that most people know about the technology. Like the internet back in its infancy, it is just another buzz word thrown around generate hype and seem in the times without doing anything.

I suspect this is just the beginning, even if bitcoin loses half its value the news has talked about the revolutionary new tech, 'the blockchain', want some of that pie? Talk to your doctor if blockchain is right for you, then ignore him.
