Litmus tests for using blockchain vs. relational database
When should a business use blockchain despite its inefficiency? Honestly, I can't think of any reason to not just use a traditional relational database instead.
Instead of anecdotes I'm interested in any literature exploring this issue, ideally outlining specific features of a use-case that would make it a good fit for blockchain.
Here's an example, but it's far too vague IMO: https://dcicblog.umd.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/13/2017/06/Smith.pdf (clickable version in comments)
