The blockchain craze is basically the atomic craze of the 1950s. Both are ridiculously bad ideas outside of some specific applications (and that’s debatable for blockchain), but are being incredibly hyped up by nerds.

The answer to the supply chain crisis is of course to take computational resources that could be used to manage logistics, and instead use them for nothing.
