In Search of Blockchain’s Killer-Apps

Blockchain has yet to cross the chasm from technology enthusiasts to the wider marketplace and a major part of the reason is that we still don’t have the kind of easy-to-explain blockchain killer-apps that propelled the internet forward. Will we see this change in 2018?
