Logistics and inventory tracking. There is a reason walmart and ebay are interested in blockchain.

you're mixing up bitcoin and blockchain.

the blockchain is a permanent and unhackable ledger of all transactions that have happened on the blockchain
everyone on the blockchain owns a complete record of the entire blockchain with every transaction that has ever happened on the blockchain
banks already use databases which are constantly changing with no record of changes except for backup snapshots and they get ripped off for billions by hackers every year

Anonimity DOES reduce transparency.
