Couldn't agree more. We're using some blockchain technology to solve specific problems at my company. It's a part of our stack, but we don't mention blockchain unless someone specifically asks.
Blockchain is sensationalized beyond belief. I can't wait for the rose tinted glasses to fall off and we realize it's just a data management technology for specific use cases.
I think the biggest danger to the technology is that the community focuses on "blockchain will change the world" not "how can we make this better".
