> No one is advocating putting medical records on the blockchain. That's crazy. The post I responded to seemed to be. It implied the data would be "distributed upon 5,000+ worldwide nodes in an immutable data ledger", and said it would: "be there forever"
"keep the data accurate and accessible" I think its legit to call this out.
Blockchain is a great technology, but its being hyped as if its the world's only distributed database. > This can be used to verify the integrity and approximate timestamp of the data. That may indeed be beneficial, but isn't the panacea that is being touted. |
