In terms of small international betting it is, you try find a site that lets you bet between the US and the UK.

As far as I can tell, the only useful application for the blockchain seems to be gambling with sanctioned Russian oligarchs without the annoying trip to Russia that you'd need to do without the blockchain.

Doesn't really sound that appealing since I don't think gambling is an useful application of anything, blockchain or not.

Come on man, don't strawman discussions or why would I bother continuing to talk to you? If you have decided that you dislike a tech for whatever reason fine, but do something more productive with your time than just chatting crap on the internet.
