      Yes, exactly.

      Block chain would have been an amazing solution to most democratic vote validation processes.

        It can still be used that way. While most people talk about how corrupt politicians enrich themselves with fake currencies, more legal and legitimate uses can still use decentralized ledgers for useful things. Of course these won’t make headlines.
