You should've said besides AI and blockchain, lol.

Maybe more of a US-centric view for now, but I'm gonna say GLP-1 inhibitors like Ozempic.

Not making a judgment good or bad, I just think the impact they will have and already having will have ripple effects throughout the healthcare industry and society.

Blockchain, probably? Another quite obvious (and controversial indeed) option, but I think  it's really powerful.

@duffdevone 😂 You know... they used the first thing to create the answer mentioning the second thing :DDDDD Every new advancement overrules the other things. But I am quite amazed by rockets and spaceships as well

@busmark_w_nika Good question! :)

I think a lot of people are drawn to blockchain because it's really shaking things up in a lot of areas. For starters, it's super secure because of how it encrypts data and links transactions together. This makes it really hard for anyone to tamper with the information.

Then there's the transparency. Everyone in the network can see the same data, which builds a lot of trust. This is especially important in areas like finance and supply chains where trust is crucial.

Blockchain also makes things faster and cheaper by cutting out the middlemen and using smart contracts to automate processes. This is a huge deal for industries like real estate where things can get pretty slow and expensive.

It's also decentralized, meaning no single entity has control over everything. This makes the system more resilient and less prone to big failures.

And let's not forget about the cool new stuff like cryptocurrencies and decentralized finance (DeFi). These are changing the way we think about money, investments, and even how we run organizations.

So, in a nutshell, blockchain offers a lot of benefits that traditional systems struggle with, which is why so many people are excited about it.
