I don't think you know what you are talking about and I don't have the time to detail it for you. There is a ton of material out there for you to read. #1 Security is not one thing. It is separated between various domains - Authentication, Authorization, Accounting, Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability. No security scheme is great at all of these because they inherently conflict with one another (e.g. Confidentiality vs Availability) - just ask NSA or the White House how hard it is to meet all of these requirements. Blockchain is great in some and problematic in others, which is why it is an area of active research. Once those problem areas cross over into acceptable risks, you will see mass adaption. #2 Bitcoin is not blockchain. And the blockchain that most people know is not the only blockchain. You can have public blockchains like bitcoin, or private ones, or hybrid, etc. Go educate yourself before making wisecracks.
