    Blockchain is a horribly inefficient, wasteful implementation of a distributed ledger which can be created in many other ways.

    The novelty with blockchain is related to a paradigm shift. Instead of having a centralised entity controlling the servers for instance, blockchains provides a transparent and decentralised alternative. Transparency comes from the open source community, and thanks to transparency the open source community can verify the claims of decentralisation.

    If a blockchain is not 100% open source, it’s just another centralised thing.
