Currently I’m working on a small project, where I want to explain blockchain use cases with just one chart.

I think, if we want to lift blockchain to the next level, it won’t be enough to only talk about money, but also about real ideas and how and where blockchains can work.

Maybe you guys can take a look, if this is useful and how it might be improved! It’s really work in progress... Thanks!

There are tons of charts that you can use to find ideas, see here  (https://www.google.com/search?q=blockchain+use+cases&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwizgNfXyYraAhWLQBQKHctmDqwQ_AUICygC&biw=1280&bih=615#imgrc=_)

The blockchain is such a powerful technology that we can not imagine all the possibilities to use it. I advise you to read the blog from IBM which is very great to follow

Good luck with your graphic. Also if you're new to this, create an account withcanva.com and use it with icons from flaticon and image from pixabay.

my favorites are (from other sources)

driverless uber gets a pickup pasenger request. funds are locked in multisig. pickup arrives. vehicle goes to destination.
part of paymnt goes to ubers vehicle owner part goes to cities road repair management based on distance travelled and part goes to any vehicles that negociated to give way to allow uber vehice to overtake and get to destination faster and safer

customer goes to dealership to order a new car. picks the style, engine capacity, battery capacity and color of vehicle and any other modifications (sporty spoilers and bumpers, alloys etc). the payment is made and the payment splits up and goes to all the different departments automatically to trigger the manufacturing robots on what to build and put togther.

schools have 'credits' if a pupil attends school they get 1 credit per day. for each homework/test if they get an A+ they get 10 credits per test/homework and less if their grade is less.. each semester/term their multisig with their teacher is closed and broadcast and the locked into the blockchain. where each school isthe pow miner/pos signer
each year they need xxx credits to graduate the year or do summer classes/evening classes to get extra credit. employers of the future can all see the pupils records

every law has a hash. that hash is locked in a blockchain and the corresponding law then becomes active. but the hash only gets into a blockchain by public/commitee/authority vote

I really like the car ordering use case!

This is a good one but what is the use of making payment to those vehicles who gave way to the uber car? While the distribution to the uber owner and related taxes is needed, the other one seems awkward.


I really like this usecase. It's mainly you are talking about a customized car purchase. But for factory ready car purchase, there are a number of taxes that needs to be paid. For one car purchase, there are road tax, Registration charges, tax for car and local body tax based on the location. So we should factor in those parameters. While the buyer makes a single payment and the funds are automatically distributed through the distribution ledger to various departments. The buyer gets the transaction hash for each distribution which acts as a proof of the payment.


That's a very nice idea! Basically the entire grading system to be imported to blockchain. This is what the current grading system majority of the schools use. Implementing it in a blockchain will make everything transparent. I will try to prepare an usecase for this once I have some time. Thanks for the idea!

imagine. a normal drivers insurance cost.. now imagine the higher insurance cost for a taxi/uber driver.. especially if you seen how crazy some taxi drivers drive..
so imagine a insurance policy can be cheaper if their is evidence that instead of peddle to the metal overtakeing at risk to other drivers. that the other drivers are given a few pennies to have their vehicle slow down by a few mph and be a little closer to the pavement to give more room to overtake safely. eg oncoming vehicles also get a few pennies too
thus avoiding accidents and avoiding insurance premium increases. EG people earn a few pennies for giving way at a junction, thus avoiding cars getting side swiped at junctions
some companies already give 'new' drivers a little black box that records the drivers speed and gives them discounts for not going to fast. its much the same. showing evidence that other vehicles give way and the taxi/uber overtakes/manuavers junctions safely can reduce their insurance
...would you pay an extra 10cents if it meant not having a heart attack because the driver compensated 10 cars for 1cent each for letting it pass safely, avoiding heart attack car races some taxi drivers used to do


yep you get the idea exactly



i could have gone one step further where the 'acedemic credit' is the bases of money creation in a future utopia where the acedemic credits have financial value that can be traded for school resources. EG (credits get unlocked/spendable if the highschool graduate goes onto university/employment). because knowing a high school student with XXX credits has more chance of getting a degree and thus the university will 'create' more credits for the university to spend if the now university student graduates. thus it makes the education system work better at trying to get students into further education/employment rather than just doing tests for the sake of it

I don't know how you would explain this, but in regards to hiring freelancers. You could hire them from a service, but then the payment is locked in HTLC and with multi-sig thus only allowing the payment after the job is completed. Currently sometimes freelancers take money, and don't provide the service. This will remedy that situation. Feel free to make an info graphic on it, cause I got no clue how to market that and make it look purdy. :P
