This amuses me

this comment section might be insane

well it is unless the blockchain is forked without that transaction, which doesn’t happen often at all so its mostly true with like two exceptions ever

impossible to edit as security against fraud.

Well security against monetary fraud, like faking coins or double spending. Especially double spending, at the time when bitcoin started pretty much all the other mathematical problems were figured out except that one.

this honestly doesn’t sound too bad (as long as the chips aren’t toxic)

using blockchains to track the movement of goods, like from ports or for cheese, is probably their only non-BS use case other than volatile currencies

the reason a Blockchain would be preferable to a traditional database is bc its effectively impossible to change the records on it
