Or pivot to "we're a blockchain-based database". And when that fails, "we're a blockchain stored in a database". After that, you'll have to get creative with the neologisms: "we're the first ever datachain backed by a Baseblock".

Hasn't the blockchain hype subsided a little by now?

Atleast in India its gone completely, Here they started with a blockchain( just a database stored on a central government servers) for everything. After crytpo currency got banned here and now i don't even hear blockchain anymore. People can't even differentiate between blockchain and Bitcoin lol.

Thankfully yes. I work in the space and we're starting to see projects/products roll out, without the high number of scams we saw in 2017/18. Hopefully by the next time the hype-train starts there's something there to be hyped about!
