Blockchain’s Next Big Wave: Lightning Huang Reveals the Core Driving Future Growth
A new article shared by 吴说区块链 (@wublockchain12) breaks down the future potential of blockchain in depth. Authored by Lightning Huang Shiliang (streak lightning yellow world bright) the piece “How Much Room Does Blockchain Have to Grow?” A Fundamental Needs Analysis” looks at the driving force behind every major industry – its “kernel.
Huang said this kernel is not a product or a technology. It is the most genuine demand for explosive growth of an industry. In blockchain’s first few years, that demand was focused on circumventing traditional financial systems.
Financial Rebellion to Real Life Integration
During the first 10 years of blockchain (2009 to 2019), its main driving force was the wish to challenge traditional finance. Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum became a tool of freedom and decentralization. But the landscape has changed. After the speculative bubble burst the market began to look for real, lasting value. Huang says today’s “kernel” is combining the efficiency benefits of blockchain – instant transactions, global reach and low cost – with the stability of the real world.
Huang calls attention to how blockchain can change industries and make systems faster, cheaper and more transparent. Supply chains management and trade financing, sustainable energy systems – this is just the beginning of applications. Experts also point out that the potential of blockchain to ensure trust without intermediaries has potential to redefine banking, payments and even governance. In 2025, the emphasis is on integration of decentralized efficiency and regulatory trust – a balance needed for mainstream adoption.
Industry Ready for Expansion
The article, with the help of Wu Blockchain’s huge Chinese audience, marks a maturing stage in the evolution of blockchain. No longer concerned with speculative trading, the technology is entering an era of utility driven growth. By connecting digital innovation with physical stability, blockchain has the potential to open up new markets and build a sustainable global infrastructure. As Huang concludes, the future is for those who understand the “inner kernel” of blockchain – the fundamental human need for trust, efficiency and transparency.
