A curated list of projects building non-financial blockchain applications across identity, IoT, energy, and media.
Awesome Non-Financial Blockchain is a curated GitHub repository listing projects that implement blockchain technology for applications outside the financial sector. It addresses the perception that most blockchain applications are financial by showcasing innovative uses in identity management, IoT, energy systems, and media. The collection demonstrates how blockchain can serve as an incorruptible digital ledger for virtually anything of value.
Blockchain researchers, developers exploring non-financial use cases, and technology enthusiasts interested in decentralized applications beyond cryptocurrencies. It's particularly valuable for those investigating blockchain's potential in specific industries like energy, IoT, or digital identity.
This resource saves time by aggregating quality non-financial blockchain projects in one place with clear categorization. Unlike general blockchain lists, it specifically filters out financial applications to highlight transformative uses in other sectors, providing industry-specific examples and supporting materials.
Curated list of projects that build non-financial applications of blockchain
Open-Awesome is built by the community, for the community. Submit a project, suggest an awesome list, or help improve the catalog on GitHub.
Specifically highlights non-financial applications in Identity, IoT, Energy, and Media, as clearly organized in the README's contents section, filtering out financial noise.
Includes a 'Talks and Books' section with resources like 'Blockchain Revolution' and TED talks, providing context beyond mere project listings.
Defines industries by the sector most transformed, explained in the introduction with the example of IoT startup 21, adding analytical depth.
Projects are grouped into meaningful categories with linked subsections, making it easy to browse specific use cases like identity or energy.
The README does not specify update frequency, risking inclusion of outdated projects like the discontinued IoT startup 21 mentioned in the classification example.
Simply lists projects without providing insights on their activity, reliability, or community support, leaving users to evaluate each individually.
Focuses only on Identity, IoT, Energy, and Media, potentially overlooking emerging non-financial areas like healthcare or supply chain not addressed in the README.
