Today let’s try to talk about blockchain perspectives from an unexpected angle, namely, blockchain in the medical field. While in many areas, blockchain is not our future, but immediate reality, for healthcare, it is still believed to be a ten-year perspective to thrive.

The blockchain-for-everything believers foretell that this technology is excellent for EHR exchange (electronic health records). Data is securely encrypted, in sync between providers and patients and whatnot. On the other hand, it will slow down all the transactions, and currently, the cost is envisioned as massive.
