it cost on average around $1 USD to perform an average blockchain transaction and millions of transaction are made a day, the demand is transparent and the data is available for everyone to see. If it was a solved problem I would expect the demand for decentralized ledgers to be a lot lower

You are confounding the demand for decentralized ledgers with the demand for currency that's recorded on the ledgers.
