    Blockchain beyond cryptocurrencyIn 2017, the  Blockchain Technology had hit the market amid a storm of hype along with the introduction of cryptocurrency. But now many mainstream organizations are likely to explore the possibilities offered by the Blockchain technology apart from the bitcoins.

    Businesses are already aware of the offerings by the blockchain technology- cross-border payment facility, enhanced data safety, and the way that smart contracts can broaden functionality into the mainstream business world.

    Below mentioned are few industries that blockchain may soon revolutionize.

    •    Banking and Payments

    The banking industry has already demonstrated their interest in this ever-growing technology. Notably, people in developing countries and without standard banks promptly available can make utilization of blockchain to get to these administrations. Blockchain along with the digital currencies could allow for instant exchanges of cash amongst nations and without significant fees.

    •    Insurance

    Insurance as an industry is prepared for integration of blockchain innovation.  Insurance enterprises could independently verify information using the technology's unique verification procedure, within contracts to advance a smoother process at every phase.

    •   Voting

    Ensuring the voting process is fair, has always been a subject of concern. Blockchain can attempt to revolutionize this process as well by providing reliability and security. Blockchain can aid in improving everything from registration to vote count. Blockchain offers transparency to the people that means that the public can access these distributed ledgers.

    •   Forecasting

    Few companies have already made use of blockchain technology to develop a worldwide decentralized forecast market. There are other estimating applications for blockchain innovation other than these sorts of wager frameworks, though. Indeed, blockchain could help streamline information association in evaluating ranging from traffic models to the climate.

    •    Government

    Many aspects of government are neither efficient nor transparent, which concludes that it is susceptible to corruption. But with the introduction of the blockchain, numerous elements of the legal procedure can be streamlined, thereby improving data safety and transparency.

    •   Crowdfunding

    Crowdfunding, a method of raising capital from a large number of people, through the internet. It has become well-defined in the past several years as it helps in raising funds for all kinds of projects. Crowdfunding is a mutual relationship between those who are seeking help to raise funds and others who are willing to contribute to such goals. Here intermediaries can intervene and charge for their fees. Hence blockchain could help to avoid these mediators and directly connect the project managers and givers efficiently.

    •   Retail

    Individual Shoppers, either at a physical store or online, put their trust in retail frameworks. With blockchain, purchasers and dealers could meet up individually, eliminating the mediator and keeping costs competitive. Smart contracts could likewise be created to improve this procedure and increase safety as well.

    •   Real Estate

    Real Estate industry is prone to both bureaucracy and fraud because there is a lack of transparency and may have mistakes in the public record as well. Blockchain can aid in improving the real estate industry by keeping the record honest. Also by reducing the use of paper and helping the way towards tracking and verifying proprietorship, blockchain frameworks could enhance real estate in numerous ways.

    There are countless other industries where blockchain integration could be proved beneficial; therefore more and more organizations are opening their doors to welcome this technology.
