Blockchain is an adequate solution to a problem that already has other, cheaper solutions.

There is no other solution for creating a shared, permissionless database.

Yes and no one but crypto needs that. Everyone else is much better served with traditional databases.

Supply chains need that. Traditional databases can't be used because there would be hundreds.
