A comprehensive picture of the various applications that are being explored with blockchain.
It is now a known fact that the use cases of blockchain have been increasing by the day. There have increasingly been many ways in which real-world assets could be linked to the blockchain and traded digitally. For example, a proof-of-concept is being run for trading commodities (like physical bars of gold, silver, and diamond) after being authenticated via blockchain, establishing ownership of real-estate properties to provide election voting, etc.
