The greatest innovation?

[Juggy777]

Well there is no doubt blockchain is good but to say it's the best is a understatement. It's yet taking steps to glory. In few years it shall make its name in the history books. Though I wouldnt mind it if it's given in place in too. It's the best thing that has happened to humans, and it will be interesting to see the updates it will have in future. Maybe 2017 maybe the year when it will take up let's hope for the best.

I won't count blockchain among the greatest innivation, so far there is no large scale use of the tech. we are just hoping it will hit the real world use. Blockchain cannot be considered to have affected the world the way Electricity, Aircraft, Internet, Computer etc. have changed the world positively may be in future it will but not presently

That's true, we should wait until it proves itself. The Internet wasn't on the list in the 70s and 80s, when it was still used only by scientist and large corporations, and how many people use blockchain? Not even 1% of the population. To compare think how many people are using a fork or a spoon or a microwave? Also, like others have said, blockchain is only a tool for Bitcoin. Bitcoin is the one that deserves a place on that list.

Great comparison

Personal computers were invented in 70s and Internet in 90s. Can we put blockchains to the list of the greatest innovation of Technology which was innovated in recent years? What do you think?

Yes I think Bitcoin and also Blockchain in some certain ways, decentralized and immutable, are the next big move in the digital age.
Satoshi created something incredible which generations after us will use and can read about it's beginnings in the history books of technology and digital science. And I'm glad to be a part of this wonderful invention as an early adopter and user.

With a few knowledge of its history, i think its a greatest innovation on how they create and started it.It is quite inspiring that for now it gives a total package of changing the world on how to use digital currency.As it continues mostly are using bitcoins already ,i think this great innovation will take as far as it was now.

i agree that bitcoin and the technology it introduces to all of us has been a great thing. it is obvious because so many people, a lot of big financial groups, ... has been showing great interest in the blockchain technology. but things like these are never recognized as big in their early stages. it takes time before everybody realizes their potential, do lots of test runs and then in 10 years from now everybody say yeah it is a big deal.

Blockchain can surely be added to the list. It seems a worthy innovation which is gonna change the world in terms of technology. Now more and more firms have started to function on their own Blockchain which itself confirms it an innovation of all time.

[robiulawal]

No, not yet.
There is more to go
or much to go..
Because Bitcoin is a new invention now.
It has not spread the world yet.
Your country may know or use bitcoin in many ways with blockchain.
but you have to think about the whole world
not only your country.
It has to be as popular as facebook
for a great invention.
So think around the world.

Yet Blockchain is a great innovation..

blockchain is a smart innovation in my opinion. previously people did not consider it important. but in fact at this time that blockchain is an innovation that is severe and can not be removed from bitcoin's success to date. we should learn from how blockchain can be created.

Digital age has got existed in certain parts of every country, with everything completely digitized. The same need to grown in the currency network too. Over the past card system made a great change in the banking which has been liked much by the people. Now an alternative has come in the form of bitcoin as well trying hard get the attention of all class of people and go mainstream.

Blockchain is indeed a great innovation, but what I don't like is how some are trying to make it seem like that is the only good thing of bitcoin and they try to only take that part out of it, bitcoin in itself is even greater than the blockchain in my opinion but they don't want to recognize it out of fear.

Bitcoin and blockchain technology is a great financial innovation but to state as greatest innovation in 20s, bitcoin does not have a considerable contribution for people in worldwide.
I mean, it doesn't reach and affected everyone's life as much as computer or internet.

[twodrive01]

The rate of money flowing into blockchain tells the whole story.

[strasboug]

I think blockchain is a great innovation now people are finding more and more usage of it. From payment system, stock trading to housing market, basically anything with a contract can be done with blockchain which is more secure and tamper-proof.

[digaran]

Digital, virtual, blockchain, internet, gaming, all are leafs on the computer innovation tree and that wouldn't be possible if wasn't for TV and no TV without electricity etc, it goes all the way down and comes back up again just like a circle or chain, so actually blockchain represents the whole universe if you think of it that way.

I think , No.
because this system of blockchain was not a big things , at the time when it launch , because this technology was already developed , but to make big big profits the developer made third party like dealing system , which is known as bank , which holds our fiat money .
So it would be better if we things about its features that are going to day by day improving , which was earlier not fixed .

I think Bitcoin (public cryptographic blockchain) is the greatest innovation in the history of mankind.

The internet is really nothing compared to this.


Inflation was the sole reason why all wars have happened. The kings issued silver coins, and then lowered the composition of silver in them, to fund the wars.


Inflation = War.


Bitcoin = Peace.


Bitcoin will stop all wars.

Yes, bitcoin is the greatest invention in the history of mankind!

[angaper]

It is possible that it can be considered a great contribution in the field of digital technologies and economics, and that is why it came to think of the possibility  of nominating Satoshi Nakamoto to the Nobel prize in economics, but I am not so sure that this invention may be at the level of PCs and Internet.

[DOGE12321]

I would certainly put the Blockchin on such a list. It is a revolutionary innovation that has and still will continue to change transactions forever.

Many experts already consider blockchain technologies as one of the key innovations in existence, and that makes sense if we realize the impacts that this can bring on the economy and the way people see money. But this kind of awareness is not something that happens overnight, certainly Bitcoin will need a lot of promotion to gain more space in people's lives.

I think this too. Blockchain brought many innovations to make people's lifes easier, I think this can be considered a great advance in the humanity society without doubts, like computers and internet, as OP said.
But I don't think bitcoin needs only marketing and promotions to become the success all people here wants. Upgrades in blockchain are necessary too, very important...
