What are the next generation Blockchain use cases?
The presentation of the question appears to cast a shade or two of confusion of what a 'dApp' really is. So, let's clear that up first before we go on to understand where we are headed in blockchain usecases. dApp stands for Decentralized Application or what I'd like to call, for the purpose of this write up, 'A Decentralized Userpoint' or, more aptly, 'A Decentralized Point-Of-Usage'. It goes without saying that any item or tool that helps us relate with (or express ourselves on) the blockchain can be referred to as a dApp. So, a DEX is a dApp, an Explorer is a dApp, so is a Coin or Token, and by extension, a Non-Fungible Token (NFT). Still in this same light, there are various categories of dApps depending on what they helps us achieve on (or with) the blockchain. There are Decentralized Finance (DeFi) dApps, Artificial Intelligence (AI) dApps, Machine Learning (ML) dApps, Wallet dApps, Gaming dApps, NFT dApps etc. And as in any other item or tool we use on planet earth, the use to which we put some basic dApps can overlapp to other areas, and form what I'd like to call "Composite dApps". Yes, we're heading for a 'Composite' future in blockchain applications. So, in trying to pin point the next big thing in the blockchain space, let's look out for that dApp that solves challenges in two or more aspects of our human existence as well as put more money in our pockets. Did I just mention 'DeFi' again? Well, yes, the dApp must include a good enough touch of finance for it to survive in the new paradigm that came with DeFi few months ago. As can be seen from this chart: https://postimg.cc/pm0nz4vw Smart money didn't take us seriously until DeFi broke out in 2020. Satoshi came out in the beginning with "Decentralized Peer-to-peer internet money", Ethereum extended that later on with Smart Contract and tokenization which could only take the Crypto industry to a max of $600B in market capitalization after 10 years of struggle. Then came DeFi dApps which weaved all those prior ideals and usecases into a tool that helped us make more money on top of our money on, even, rare compounded auto-pilot mode. This was what opened the floodgates that'd taken the cryptosphere to above $2T in less than 8 months. Here on out, therefore, any dApp that want to compete for user adoption in our crypto space must, in addition to being useful in one or more other industries, have a DeFi offering, and a good one at that. Sticking my neck out, I'd say the next big thing in blockchain is dApps with NFT+Gaming+DeFi offerings. And Twitter search remains my discovery channel of choice.

The number one is Defi which brings about freedom of knowing that you are directly in charge of your money without third party interference like centralized banks which can decide to freeze your bank account without your consent. Staking can be done and you earn extra crypto. Nfts in my opinion will almost totally remove plagiarism knowing that original authours can always be traced and get the benefits from their contents. People can directly make payment to musicians , authors and artist through their without necessary passing throgh third party and beaureacracy of managers. I see the blockchain technology totally revolutionizing the music and arts industry via nfts. Decentralized social media preserves information and third party social media do not need to store people's data without their permission and even use them to make ads while the user gets no benefits

I believe the next generation of blockchain ise cases are going to banks becoming decentralized themselves. I believe countries are going to come out with there very own crypto currencies soon enough. Think of the amount of money 1 country would save if they just built a smart contract. Instead of having machines do all the work and the expenses of making such machine. They could write up a few lines of code. You could then run everything with this currency. It would stop the armored trucks from going bank to bank. Stop people from have to dispose and shred old cash... i think the biggest downfall would be loss of jobs. I hope we one day all use virtual currencies. We just have to make them unhackable. Thats the biggest downfall of cryptocurrency today!

The Next Gen Blockchain use cases would be Blockchain games. Games are evolving like better than any other era. In this era of enriched games, Blockchain games come in handy. As players also get to know the awesomeness of NFT's, as they get more involved into the Blockchain gaming they find the platforms more enjoyable as they get rewarded by tokens or coins which they can actually redeem for real money. I really Blockchain Games should be the Next Gen Blockchain Use case in the near future or so.

maybe blockchain will be used by a state government to keep state money in order to minimize the occurrence of corruption committed by state officials, namely by using blockchain as a routine transaction for every fund that will be used for state needs, then we can clearly find out what assets sent and how much.
