I think the point of a lot of blockchain tech is not to actually solve a real-world problem. For most of these problems you don't need blockchain or there is little extra value to be derived from blockchain. Most of the time, the real-world problem solved by selling "something something blockchain" is that the person selling it needs to earn money somehow.

Honestly, if you pay me money for, I'd sell you "something something blockchain" if that's what you want me to do. Though shutting up about telling you my opinion ("fuck blockchain") will cost extra.
