well first off, to be clear, the money use case is most important (what Bitcoin went after in the early days)
and this is a commentary on what we use that decentralized money for
do we use it for finance? lending/borrowing/payments rails?
that's the popular answer and also the obvious answer, just apply new money to the most popular use cases for old money
but the problem is finance has had hundreds of years of permissionless innovation and largely works
on the other hand, human coordination (governance) is still primarily stuck in the same forms of representative democracy we used in the 1800s
it's a harder problem because there aren't popular use cases to copy, but it's a much more attractive problem because it's an area where almost everyone is disenchanted with the existing tech
