For the vast majority of people, the blockchain is an unknown entity. Most people who have heard the term may associate it with cryptocurrencies, but this is an extremely limited view. Blockchain technology has such huge potential. Thinking of blockchain in relation to cryptocurrency is like thinking of the Internet in comparison to email. Email was the first widespread use for the Internet like cryptocurrencies are the first use for blockchain.
