Sybil problem still remains. blockchain history can be rewritten relatively cheaply if defense is controlled by an army of nodes under obfuscated control of a single entity or clique. even worse when blind faith is put into authenticity of such information.
Crypto(graphy) already has plenty of use cases. I think you're probably referring to cryptocurrencies/blockchains.
Yes I was using that as shorthand, thanks for clarification.
