Blockchain IP Is Hard
Building a blockchain product requires founders to navigate:
Interoperability challenges: integrating with various blockchain platforms is becoming a must
Intense competition: standing out in a crowded market requires unique value propositions and strong business execution
Scalability challenges: consensus mechanisms such as proof of work, and proof of stake often entail high transaction costs and slow processing times
Unique patent hurdles: Blockchain patents often face strict scrutiny under U.S. software patent guidelines, creating challenges in proving patentability under the Alice/Mayo framework.
