[2015-12-05] Wired: Bitcoin May Never Make It to Wall Street, But Its Tech Will

[Bitware]

None of those I listed require bitcoins.

Have you not seen all the altcoins, none of which are bitcoin?

Anyone with the ability can also code a custom blockchain client and use private tokens in place of any coins, completely hidden from all users except administration.

They all require tokens or coins for transactions, but they don't have to be Bitcoins.

That's really the point here. Using blockchain technology without Bitcoins. Blockchain can drive unlimited apps without the need of bitcoins, but without the blockchain technology, Bitcoin can drive nothing..
