Edit: Oh wait, this gets even better. This dumbass was the creative director for Assassin's Creed 3 (you know, the shitty one that tanked the series for a while), and once said that "women are too hard to animate" as a justification for only having male protagonists: https://twitter.com/GenePark/status/1319363853021569025

I'm sure, but nothing off the top of my head.
The examples I'm thinking of that are neat have been the attempts to use it as a way to vote.
Sierra Leone somewhat famously attempted it in 2018, at the time I was writing for some tech news outlets and I covered a bit of it (no I will not link this for it is my great shame to have been involved with that scene).
But the general concept seemed pretty cool, as each citizen was basically given a an encrypted key for their vote. Can't spoof it, so there's basically zero way to fraud it, and you'd be able to check to see that your vote was added to the chain without giving up anonymity.
It didn't work out great, because Sierra Leone, but I always thought it was a very cool idea that could make voting really really easy to do without any risk of fraud.
Basically it can guarantee good faith on every end, so long as that specific chain was created to suit that need.
Oh wow. Now I have to do research. That could create a true democracy. Not that we need democracy to implement communism, but most people also support our ideas so it could be an effective avenue.
Yeah, a well set-up blockchain with a truly unbiased ruleset could be used as the new standard of unbiased elections pretty easily.
There's zero way anything like that would be used under the current system without it being imposed on a government though lol
I'm sure there's other use cases for the tech as well, but that's usually where my mind goes to.
But it's a really fucking dumb currency concept, it's just where our monkey mind went to the first time we got our paws on the new tech.
