The Era of the User-Friendly Blockchain Applications

The blockchain world has changed radically over the past year and is slowly coming into the mainstream.

Blockchain enthusiasts may be willing to endure unpredictable setbacks and fluctuating fees, but potential mainstream adopters may only embrace blockchain when it becomes faster and reliable.

Many startups are experimenting with next-generation blockchain protocols to solve the scalability crisis.

Blockchain's practical applications are becoming apparent but still suffers from a mainstream image problem.

In response, many companies are launching solutions to help newer blockchain users participate with confidence.

Denizens of the tech world with the expertise and resources have limited capacities to build blockchain tools that are user-friendly and responsive to the industry-specific needs of diverse sectors.

Most companies launching user-friendly blockchain building tools are heavy-hitters: Amazon Web Services, for example, recently started a blockchain template program for users of the popular cloud service to launch business-ready blockchain networks quickly.

IBM is launching a startup-friendly blockchain building and testing environment.

Startups are making some of the blockchain world's most innovative overtures to blockchain builders needing a user-friendly interface.

DAOs use the inherent reliability of blockchain smart contracts to redistribute hierarchal responsibilities, such as hiring or setting salary levels, across a community of participating free agents instead. DAOstack provides a user-friendly interface for newer DAO builders who want to use pre-vetted, reliable DAO governance modules.
