the problem many praising blockchain minus bitcoin people forget, is that blockchain strength (distributed reconciliation) is possible only because of incentive (sth you get in exchange for doing all the etahashes per second).

The moment you take incentive (bitcoin) out of the equation, whole blockchain will lose its strenght.

You can not take out greed^H^H^Hincentive out of the picture.

p.s. this is black and white written in bitcoin whitepaper.
