Imagine the blockchain tech (which wasn't even named like that at first).
Now remove ICOs, remoe the vast amount of money that are gambled daily (I do it also).
Would companies/startups/fanatics still use it?
Would the blockchain had such an adoption without ICOs or gambling?

#3Blockchains provide solutions to problems that require one (or more) of the following- 1)an immutable, transparent record of transactions 2) trust between parties that don't trust each other 3) optional anonymity 4) decentralization. Any one of these use cases could be a reason to use blockchain beyond the ICO use case.
