Please explain why a website is the better solution for your project than existing technologies, and please no projects that exist solely for the purpose of reaching a browser-based audience, enabling webapps and so on!
I look forward to seeing your replies!

Repeat excercise with the Internet, the punch hole card, the steam machine, the landline telephone etc etc.
Even if some tech eventually fails, that doesn't mean it was pointless.
- codegeek 5y agoAre you seriously comparing Landline Phones/Steam machines to Blockchain ?
- quantified 5y agoIt’s potentially fair, see what the comparison comes up with. McKinsey told AT&T not to bother with cell phones, too small a market. And who would need more than 640K RAM in their PCs? (At the time, that question was widely discussed. BG did appear to say that.)
- doedoedoedoe 5y agoI can't quite tell if you're being serious or not, but just in case you are: Literally every technology you listed there was a massive step forward technologically and was a significantly better solution for the problems they addressed... You also skewed the question into a completely non-sensical argument - Obviously there are lots of websites that provide purpose beyond self-promotion. I'm looking for one example of blockchain technology that isn't circular or self-promoting, and solves any problem better than existing technologies. Not some theoretical future use case, just one existing project.
