Guardtime claim to invent blockchain technology in 2007:@Norway
I think most of the blockchain tech solutions are in early PoC/prototype stage, but there is no doubt that we will see them arrive in this year.
For instance Guardtime has deployed a number of solutions across security-critical industries based on their keyless signature infrastructure, and blockchain plays a big role on their system. Other non-financial applications include managing of supply chain, and music industry property managemement (Ujo).
Things are moving in such fast pace that the entire cryptocurrency scene, Bitcoin included, stands in danger of becoming a curious geek ghetto or just a footnote in the relentless emergence and spread of the blockchain tech industry.
"In 2007 we invented Keyless Signature Infrastructure, the first and only blockchain platform for ensuring the integrity of systems, networks and data at industrial scale."
I don't think cryptography, P2P, network or distributed databases qualify as "Blockchain tech". It's such a buzz word these days. Almost like people just invented computer technology.
Any other examples of Blockchain technology in real use today? The technology has been around for many years now...
