Shameless plug: I've tried to articulate what Bitcoin is, and hence why the blockchain data structure was invented, in this article (hint: it's all related to proof-of-work)[1]. I think a lot of people see that 1) Bitcoin uses a blockchain and 2) Bitcoin creates digital money seemingly out of nowhere, and feel fascinated with the technology without being able to explain exactly why. So we're left with a lot of people using blockchains without really understanding the reasoning behind it. [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14553146 |
