The need for projects with real-life use cases has been a major topic for discussion in the blockchain ecosystem.

An example of such is EcoCashew, a fast-rising project combining the world of charity, blockchain, and mechanization to impact the life of Cashew farmers in Africa.
The BSV Blockchain Association says that decentralization is not the purpose of Bitcoin. "Decentralization," or rather, "node distribution" is simply a means to an end, which is to provide some of Bitcoin's security toward achieving the main purpose of the technology. That main purpose is to give the world a frictionless electronic cash system by way of a distributed network of nodes which validate and record transactions made directly between individuals. To that end, the BSV Blockchain Association welcomes the examination of claims regarding blockchain technology's assumed decentralization by way of nodes and distributed governance, as seen in the recent report from Trail of Bits, "Are Blockchains Decentralized?"

Hippo has announced the launch of its crypto wallet, which is already fully functional with new innovative features. The non-custodial and completely private wallet is designed to offer seamless crypto transactions, maximum security and anonymity to users. To ensure that the privacy of its users is completely secured, Hippo Wallet doesn’t request any personal information from users. Furthermore, it does not store or have access to the personal data of its users. The only identifier issued to a user is the mnemonic code which must be kept safe by the users as the wallet has no way of identifying a user outside that code. And if the code is lost, the system has no record of it for recovery. This measure helps ensure that only the unique wallet owner can access the assets stored in it.
