of course there is not. and there was no HN when the internet started. Scalability is not the issue, verifiable secure immutable records are where no admin from a third world participating country can alter records as an example. If you forget the bias for a bit you may start to love the possibilities.

And yet you bring it up as an example of how well Ethereum might work. And claim “there are hundreds of other examples”.
So what you claimed is false, and there are no other examples. And the avility of Ethereum to provide what you claim is yet to be proven (it was nearly crippled by a friggin kitties game which could fit in its entirety on a low-powered laptop eas it not for Ethereum/blockchain).
> If you forget bias
There’s no bias in calling out a lie

there is nothing in the world that there are no examples of what are you talking about. examples are theorhetical.
There’s no system built in Ethereum that provides what you cite as an example.
And all of the world’s real edtate records would probably easily fit into a non-optimized MySQL database (I’m not even talking about more powerful databases). Because there are at most a few hundred million such records. Even if there’s a billion, it’s nothing for a modern database (and would cripple any blockchain solution).
