Blockchain heating up or just warming up ? !!

Block chain is here and moving through the industry at a pace that stands to disrupt various professions. As a technology, it will push out the middle men, provide more visibility and tracking..

I have met recently with at-least two people running companies delivering blockchain solutions without looking for them. I then looked around and found hundreds of startups in this space. This was a surprise as i assumed its in nascent stages.

Each service provider will have to come up with their differentiating value proposition as unlike most apps, Blockchain requires strong industry skills to be able to deploy. It also requires an evangelist in the client organization who can orchestrate and build a business around it.

The friends I met are focused on everything other than ICO. So making niches is key to survival. Clients will have to make their choices carefully. Experience, industry knowledge and passion for ones solution are all key. We have to wait and watch how this market evolves.

This is also a warning sign for a lot of people and time for them to introspect and look back at their roles and how soon they have to transform. An article by By Nathan Reiff on the industries that will be disrupted is a good starting point. Am sure since it was written a few months back, things have changed further.
