Blockchain is the best thing in the current 4.0 industry. Without bitcoin, the blockchain will grow very well, which is reflected in many industries that are using blockchain technology and production and management.

Blockchain technology is the building block of bitcoin. Though bitcoin is just one of the many applications of blockchain and blockchain was made popular by bitcoin but it can surely without bitcoin. There are far too many applications of blockchain and with the projects coming up that use blockchain technology it surely will be the future of businesses.

Yes offcourse blockchain will survive without Bitcoin and blockchain technology is growing world widely. Bitcoin is the first gift of the blockchain technology invented by Satoshi Nakamoto. Blockchain technology will grow more and more in future with new versions. Following are the evolution of blockchain technology
1 Blockchain 1.0 - invented by Satoshi nakamoto in 2008 who also invented digital currency which is BITCOIN
2 Blockchain 2.0 -  Smart contract big example of this is ethereum blockchain which was invented by Vitalik Buterin which widely used by new ICOs
3 Blockchain 3.0 - Dapps , A dApp is a ‘blockchain enabled’ website, where the smart contract is what allows it to connect to the blockchain. Its a decentralized application avoiding centralized infrastructure. Big example of this EOS and IOTA
4 Blockchain 4.0 - Making blockchain usable in industry, this will be the advanced version of Blockchain 3.0  to build trust between the industry sectors and people. For example SKYCHAIN ICO based on medical sector will be upgrading to blockchain 4.0 technology in mid 2019. Also lots of banking sectors to are involving in adapting blockchain technology. There lots of thing we will going to see from blockchain technology in future without Bitcoin.

a blockchain is a database.. more specific a hash chain based database... a technology. u can also ask if mysql will die when some mysql based apps will die.. surely no. but there will be much development e.g. scaling, parallelization of mining etc.. so yes it will change but not die.

Most of the technology comes from Bit-Torrent and you sound like this Satoshi is jesus so thank him
the next time you see him for building a system that won't scale, mega high Tx fees and for starting
CPU-Wars and for helping to warm up the planet.

oh yes, Linked lists (Block chain navigation) was around 40 years ago and we even have double linked lists
these days but I admit these cannot walk on water.

Blockchain can entirely survive without relying on Bitcoin. The fact is that many businesses have adopted Blockchain technology in producing products in areas such as automotive, travel, e-commerce, and supply chain. Future Blockchain technology will replace people completely and become a revolution in the 4.0 industry; machines will replace the entire human.

Of course it can be . Blockchain doesn't depend on Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. Bitcoin and all other cryptocurrencies are just products created base on blockchain technology and crypto is not the only field that blockchain can be applied. People all over the world are trying to apply blockchain for so many other field but not only cryptocurrency.

For me, I buy bitcoin, and I just want it to go up, and then I'm going to switch to something I need, like the dollar. At this point, bitcoin and the block chain can be split up for me. I only have demand for bitcoins. I don't care what the blockchain is. In this case, there is no doubt that bitcoin is more valuable than the blockchain.

If bitcoin disappeared for some reason, a coin would be able to replace it as the leader of cryptocurrency.

Like most things related to Bitcoin, this question engenders passion from two opposing sides. The fervent supporters of the currency scoff and say that of course the blockchain can’t be separated from Bitcoin, while detractors are just as certain that it can be, and probably should be. As is often the case when disagreement is so stark, there is an element of truth to both positions.

If bitcoin dies tomorrow it will take years for the crypto market to recover, but it eventually will. This is not happening though, bitcoin is here to stay
