I wonder if they're just announcing this to see what it can do for their stock price. At the risk of saying something completely reductive, I feel like any technical person with a beginner's grasp of what blockchain technology can do is only going to say "but why", and the appeal here is going to be limited to speculators or people impressed by the social proof that blockchain is impressive to others.
