Can Blockchain Survive Without Bitcoin

[Charles Avilaa]

As far as I know, Blockchain has been known even before Bitcoin appears. Although now it is mostly known for securing Bitcoin but its potential uses are undeniable.
In addition, Blockchain is harnessed to its fullest and considered a booming technology while Bitcoin hasn't been warmly welcomed and even banned in many countries. This demonstrates the idea that Blockchain will survive whether or not Bitcoin exists.

A blockchain is a linked list.They’ve existed before without being a cryptocurrency.
Whole of github integrity checks is a blockchain where each block amounts to changes in code, but it has existed all this while and will continue to do so.Github is just one example, there are tons more where linked lists are superficialized into blockchains.

blockchain is enhancing the transparency for the world business, like how it exchange resources and copyrights more efficiently in the world now. Definitely bringing our world better.

Of course Blockchain can survive without Bitcoin , The two are not dependent on each other, in fact BTC depends more on the the Blockchain ledger than Blockchain depends on Bitcoin, Bitcoin however introduced Blockchain to the world, and now Blockchain can be applied in various sectors of the economy

Yes, I think it will. Because, Bitcoin needed the Blockchain while Blockchain can stand by itself. As days passes by, there are many coins that are being created. And that might just replace Bitcoin. Bitcoin only became the stepping stone to the success of Blockchain. So, if Bitcoin fails in the future (which I doubt, by the way) Blockchain will still live.

Controversial issue as opinions are divided, ardent supporters of cryptocurrencies talk about the impossibility of separating the blockchain from bitcoin, while others claim and declare the need for such separation. As is often the case in serious disputes, both are partly right. The essence is that the blockchain technology can be implemented in isolation from bitcoin, but it will still require a token or any other tool tied to a decentralized register. However, there is a problem. The entire value of a distributed accounting network is in the multiplicity of its nodes, which are responsible for checking and recording each transaction. In the case of bitcoin, this role is performed by miners who receive a reward for their work.

Blockchain Technology was driven to fame by its application on Bitcoin Gold due to its encryption that has been considered hacker proof. Bitcoin has been used as a reference to its success, providing a secure network for users.

The question however is, can blockchain succeed without bitcoin?

Blockchain technology's essentially a Digital Transcript created to avoid fraud, while at the same time allowing access to third parties as necessary.
The use of blockchain technology is not limited to bitcoin activity alone. The first sector to explore this blockchain, of course is the financial sector such as banking, and some of the world's banks have tested it by transferring some money from country A to state B which proved to take only 5 minutes only.

Blockchains have no advantage over cryptocurrencies and are even more beneficial to governments around the world. With such a blockchain technology, blockchain technology can be fully applied without using any unmonitored coins.

Bitcoin is the most popular cryptocurrency in these days. To seeing  this  market tread we can tell Blockchain  technology  can't  survive  without  BTC. Block chain is like a data base management system of bitcoin technology which contains all the bitcoin transaction records all over the world.

[Rubble898zaitO]

Of course, from what I know, block chain is the technology where Bitcoin is running, so it is one of the best reason why people love Bitcoin. Although Bitcoin has played a vital role for block chains introduction to people, it is not dependent opn Bitcoin. I believe that it is a great technology that can stand on its own if the time comes.

Of course it will, bitcoin is more like the marketing for blockchain technology which exist even before bitcoin was founded. Although bitcoin did a lot of promotion for the achievement right now, blockchain will still exist and thrive even without bitcoin in the first place, its more like a car will still exist even without any advertisement to promote it as long as the car serve a purpose for the mass.

blockchain is already much bigger than bitcoin. If you saw the headlines and crypto conferences back in 2012, you would only hear about bitcoin. Now no one is inviting you to bitcoin conference, it's always blockchain that comes first.

First of all, Bitcoin is a kind of virtual currency. His birth came from the support of blockchain technology. Bitcoin will no longer exist without blockchain technology. Blockchain technology will not disappear without Bitcoin because he is the only one. The biggest core behind Bitcoin.

[judyphillips]

yes it will...

[Ashliel]

Bitcoin and Blockchain tech are two separate entities in terms of the Crypto world. Bitcoin introduced the world to the idea of Blockchain tech but Blockchain tech has metaphorically gone from being the student to being the master. Blockchain has more of a long term implementation in solving real world problems and recording data through history in an encrypted format that can not be altered. The level of innovation in Blockchain tech has all sorts of theoretical implementations in the future (look at the potential of coins such as ETH and their Blockchain tech etc) to solve real world problems.

I could go on and on about the possibilities of Blockchain tech and its incredible potential that everyone can see within the tech world. Blockchain tech will be able to run long past the eventual expiration of Bitcoin as a sustainable currency in the future.

I think that bitcoin and the blocking system can safely exist without each other, but at the stage of bitcoin generation, it was hard to imagine how it would look, after years we can say with confidence that it is possible.

[alex_gr_cc]

Bitcoin helped make the Blockchain more popular. People first learned about Bitcoin, and then about the Blockchain. But Bitcoin is just a cryptocurrency. And the Blockchain is a technology. For the Blockchain - the future. And the fate Bitcoin - very doubtful.

[GhostMixer]

Yes, absolutely! Since Block chain is distributed ledger technology for digital assets, it is not limited to bitcoins. It supports other alternative coin transactions as well and therefore is not only dependent on bitcoin. Hence, block chain can survive without bitcoins.

[gathingbrus]

After the decline in bitcoin by the end of 2017 until now, the blockchain is increasingly being noticed by various parties, especially banks (which prohibit bitcoin) it seems that blockchain will be able to survive without bitcoin. Although so far the blockchain has become increasingly notorious for the rising popularity of bitcoin. But we do not know what will happen in the future.

[torres99]

Blockchain has survived without bitcoin before now. Blockchain technology is only created as a solution to solve bitcoin issues. Infact bitcoin need blockchain to survive rather blockchain surviving because of bitcoin
