Good for you, unfortunately the number of good use cases for blockchain are few and far between.

Thanks for reading it. I would like to understand why do you says so? There is AT LEAST: banking + supply chains + online identity. Which is already a significant percentage from all businesses out there.
What type of blockchain is the important question?

Am I going to trust my money and identity to a little project that hasn't caught on and puts this on a public ledger? For me, the answer is absolutely no

I will trust the government to run private blockchains and update their IT using the hype factor (if there is still any). Money and identity control are the purview of govt. Blockchain in finance will be largely unnoticed by the populace.

The only good public chain use case this far is https://handshake.org

The use cases are very narrow and you can use a normal database system to do the same thing.
