DLT iterations have already witnessed use cases in the healthcare, supply chain, food, law, education, and journalism industry. In addition, and unlike cryptocurrencies, the blockchain technology has support pouring in from all the directions.
Countries including China and India have made considerable advancements in the DLT world in a relatively short span of time, despite respective regulatory clampdowns.
Governments of both the Asian countries are not holding back from riding the blockchain train either, as the technology has received massive backing from authorities who see its vast potential in the field of administrative services.
