<div class="text-justify">  <center><sub>Image Made With Canva</sub></center> Cryptocurrencies and blockchain have indeed grown steadily and consistently since the birth of Bitcoin. Blockchain has disrupted a wide range of sectors. Blockchain technology is now being used in a variety of industries, including education, financial institutions, private equity, health, and insurance, to name a few. The future appears bright for blockchains, since recent steady growth has given skeptics a run for their money. Despite the advances made so far in blockchain technology, numerous design flaws have made reaching its full potential and mass adoption practically impossible. Here are three examples of these difficulties:  ### <center>Scalability</center>  The number of transactions that blockchains can process in a given length of time is quite limited. Ethereum can process about 20 transactions per second. Bitcoin is significantly slower, processing only roughly seven transactions per second. Blockchain technology is too slow to satisfy real-time data processing demands in today's fast-paced and modern environment. This obstructs the adoption of blockchain technology in mainstream industries and sectors.  ### <center>Universal Standards Of Operation </center>  Every technology invented today has industry standards. However, there appears to be none in blockchain technology. There are numerous different consensus algorithms in use among blockchains, for example. Proof-of-stake is used by some. Others use the acronym pob. Others, on the other hand, continue to blend algorithms. Considering the most of what each has to offer. It becomes much more resource demanding because there are no universal standards of operation among blockchains. New users, for example, must learn how to use each blockchain, which makes mainstream adoption more difficult. The same can be said for running and managing blockchain-based projects. Because there is no universally accepted standard for the technology each system is unique, therefore fees are spent.  ### <center>Security</center>  The majority of the time, blockchains are utilized to store valuables in the form of digital goods. Because of the high frequency of hacking and system invasions, storing values on a blockchain is becoming increasingly dangerous. Hacking has resulted in the theft of bitcoins worth millions or even billions of dollars in some circumstances. Furthermore, the risk of identity theft or the loss of sensitive human data has forced some organizations reconsider their use of blockchains. We have seen many situation whereby exchanges and DeFi products were hacked and funds were stolen. There is no such thing as a flawless system. However, before we can expect blockchains to replace mainstream technology, they must be made as secure as possible.  ### <center>Final Words<center>  Blockchain technology is one of humanity's greatest innovations, but there is nothing like flawless innovation. We all hope to see the day when blockchain technology completely replaces traditional systems. However, before that can happen, the issues outlined above, as well as a slew of others, must be thoroughly solved. Because I am a big fan of blockchain technology, I hope it happens in my lifetime. ***I'm a huge fan of this technology, but we must acknowledge its flaws. I'm sure that numerous solutions are being developed, and that with time, a large number of people will show up and adopt this technology.*** REFERENCES --- * [Hackernoon](https://hackernoon.com/transforming-the-flawed-models-of-international-aid-and-development-with-blockchain-lz8c2glc) * [Makeuseof.com](https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.makeuseof.com/problems-with-blockchain-technology/amp/) --- Thank you for stopping by, I hope you have learnt one or two things from my blog today, you can follow me to for more crypto-related articles check out [My Introduction Post To know More About Me](https://peakd.com/hive-174578/@mistural/my-introduction-to-hive-or-hey-everyone-meet-me) </div> Posted Using [LeoFinance <sup>Beta</sup>](https://leofinance.io/@mistural/some-blockchain-flaws-hindering-the-mass-the-mass-adoption-of-blockchain-technology)

Blockchain security is almost not hackable. Hacks are on the centralized ends. provided you don't give away your (personal) wallet's keys, your assets will be safe. So, I disagree with the last point.

Greetings, I hope all is well with you? Although you are correct in saying that **"Blockchain security is almost not hackable,"** But, we have seen numerous instances where exchanges have been compromised and money stolen. Moving on to the DeFi system, Poly Network, a decentralized finance platform, was hacked earlier this year, resulting in the theft of millions of dollars. >Hacks are on the centralized ends. There are some decentralized system that has been hacked before, in 2020 **Bisq** a DEX was hacked and funds were stolen.. **Remember all this platforms are built on the blockchain technology.** As I indicated in my piece, no innovation is without flaws, but if these flaws can be addressed, a large number of people will accept blockchain technology. Note: I'm a huge fan of this technology, but we must acknowledge its flaws. I'm sure that numerous solutions are being developed, and that with time, a large number of people will show up and adopt this technology. I adore you so much and I appreciate you for stopping by.

Considering that these hacks were exploitations of some holes in the algorithm's code, the blockchain itself is actually not harmed. So yeah, your points are valid, but the fact is that the blockchain isn't hacked in any of those cases. Regardless, hacks are very big headache for cryptocurrency, but there are no perfect systems.
