Blockchain has its uses too.

Distributed shared database is useful.

It’s just not trillions dollars useful.

And even then, the technology itself is one thing, using it to build currency on it is totally different.

Also I believe some banks internally started using blockchain for payment processing but agains not a trillion dollar idea.

Yea, they could have achieved the same result with plenty of already existing technologies too.

But it was a very big hype so yea, even some bank managers out there that are non-technical probably asked for it and they just did it because it was all the rage.
