Anyone familiar with the blockchain industry knows that decentralized finance (DeFi) is one of the sector’s most prominent use cases with the most substantial adoption. Recent issues in the banking sector, like those surrounding Silicon Valley Bank and Credit Suisse, have caused many to take a second look at Bitcoin (BTC) and crypto as an alternative to the traditional banking system. And while the further expansion of DeFi bodes well for the rest of the crypto industry, is blockchain technology expanding and being utilized in other ways as well?
That’s the question Cointelegraph Research dives into in its latest report, “Blockchain Use Cases and Adoption.” It does cover some financial use cases for Bitcoin and crypto but also explores data management, cloud storage, supply chain, smart sensors, carbon credits, decentralized autonomous organizations, digital identities and more. The report focuses on real-world use cases rather than theoretical applications and highlights projects in each area.
