Blockchain 2.0

The term u0022blockchain 2.0u0022 is used to distinguish between Bitcoin as an asset and the blockchain as a programmed distributed trust infrastructure, with extra scalable on-chain usefulness and expandable capabilities.

Blockchain 2.0 expands this technology’s capabilities to enable the decentralization of markets more generally, enabling the exchange of other types of assets like certificates, rights, and responsibilities in real estate, intellectual property, cars, and artworks. This shifts the focus away from the decentralization of money and payments.
