I always wished airline/hotel "point" programs were blockchain based. This would instantly create a valuable secondary market for people to transact points for things. This will never happen, of course, because I assume the business model for those programs factors into account that only a small % of the awarded points are ever redeemed. (I remember reading this many times over the years, but don't have a reference.)
