Can you please give a more specific example to illustrate the case?

From my perspective, blockchains are suitable for two things: People who want to misbehave(therefore they don't have legal recourse, independent of the morality of the extralegal actions) and people at war with each other that still need to have a relationship with each other.

It's kind of the perfect technology for a collapsed civilization or the revolutionaries and criminals in the current world order.

So Wall Street banks?

No, not really :) More like Iran and Israel when they want to resolve a difficult situation in Syria where fighting is not preferred by both of the parties but they don't have a trusted 3rd party to handle the orderly resolution.
