4 Must read Blockchain Disadvantages for Consumers

-

Here are the disadvantages of Blockchain. Below, you will find the list of these.

Blockchain Disadvantages

  1. Lack of privacy
  2. Loss of personal responsibility
  3. Loss of jobs
  4. Reintermediation

These concerns are understandable when considering the level at which personal data are already collected and utilized by large corporations or intelligence agencies.




2. Loss of Responsibility



Loss of personal responsibility is often considered a consequence of disintermediation. Intermediaries not only bring different parties of a contract together but may also provide guarantees. They offer reconciliation in cases when transactions do not work out as intended, and they are also obliged to take responsibility for their actions.

The shift from trust in people and human organizations to trust in protocols and technology may lead to a loss of personal service and personal responsibility.

4. Reintermediation


The complexity and its open legal status discourage individuals and organizations from using Blockchain technology.
