Building with it

Blue Concrete Powder comes from a cornflower or a piece of lapis lazuli, which means both a flower field and a mineshaft can supply it. Eight blocks per craft, gravity while it is powder, and a bucket of water to finish: that is the whole loop for filling a blue wall.

In practice

The powder falls like sand and hardens the moment it meets water, which builders use on purpose: drop a column of blue powder into a lake and it sets in place, filling a shaft nobody wants to swim down and place blocks in by hand.
