This Huge Bet on Blockchain Could Change A $50 Trillion Industry

Blockchain may one day eliminate inefficiencies and lack of transparency in supply chains. While slow in coming, this revolution would benefit not only customers and brands, but the “invisible" workers who power global trade.

"consumers willing to pay a premium for transparency" here's the kicker. That's why they're doing it.

[@falaicha]

Well every technology implementation cost money, and who will pay extra for extra cost of production.. of course that would be consumer. But If technology makes things efficient in production and delivery..that saving in cost is also passed to consumer due to competition. Now the point is will implementing Blockchain in supply chain system make the overall system more efficient, I don't think it will..as blockchain is just a different way of doing things we were already doing with traditional software. So only advantage I can see right now is transparency so there is additional cost which is gonna passed to consumer. Having said that if Blockchain in this scenario goes mainstream and every small farmer and producer gets their visibility, may be that will reduce cost somehow because we as a consumer know who to buy from as per our beliefs and more people's beliefs align, there is potential that cost will reduce for better product that goes with your belief.

[@giedrius2149]

I am not willing to pay a premium, but I am willing to cover the cost for it

04:20 "Blockchain is more resistant to tampering because of the sheer number of copies of the data." - That's not really why it's resistant to tampering.

If you're expecting that poor mother or miner or farmer to participate or be able to participate in blockchain at the end of supply chain, you're deluded. The case of the mama barley farmer mentioned is the utopian scenario. In real life in these places, cash is still used through and through. Even if you force the middlemen to use these, it's likely they will simply key whatever on behalf of the farmer. You can't use tech alone to fix real life societal problems. Companies ultimately still look for the best product at the best price, and will force their will down the supply chain if they can. They will opt-out of these blockchain solutions if they increase costs and inconvenient transparency.

[@yobroh0]

Great to see real world use of the tech. Would love to see more of this!

[@SoupTurtle16]

Sorry to break your bubble but there are very many issues with this tech being implemented the way it is. Blockchain is not new technology, it's the idea that it's a peer-to-peer network rather than a server-client relationship. It depends on both parties to be equal, in technology, and in education to utilize the blockchain and verify its authenticity. A private blockchain used by corporations is just a way for corporations to charge farmers and consumers more fees while being able to advertise that their company utilized a blockchain solution to show they are a step above their competition. Essentially what they're doing creating a fake solution to appease the consumers to upcharge them, because no one would actually go and personally go and ask people who are on the bottom of the supply chain to verify the transactions, so they can put fake transactions into the blockchain to show that they are paying the farmers more or they can actually pay more but also then reduce the payment by adding a "blockchain" cost, thus the farmers never made any more than they did before.

[@yobroh0]

@@SoupTurtle16 I hear your concern. I’m sure there are actors that would execute their businesses this way. Which naturally would be an awful thing to do. There seems to be many variants on company executions however, and to say that they’re all tyrants is probably a rash statement. I’m wondering how we could build secure/reliable digital networks for identifying and tracking malicious & benevolent behaviors in this regard…

[@SoupTurtle16]

@@yobroh0 I am not asuming that the business may act in this regard, but you never know if their employees will. As a programmer, the software is suppose to be fool-proof. We cannot expect the CEO of the company to fly around the world to personally make these transactions. If their employees decide to misbehave and pocket some money in the middle suggesting to the farmer that its the cost of using the new transaction platform, nobody would know. Thus private blockchain will not help in deterring corruption, when the blockchain is owned by the potential malicious party.

[@ewanjones9743]

What value does the blockchain actually provide? Sure - it's a ledger, but so is any spreadsheet or database which we've had for years and paper is still used. It's not about the tech it's about making people change/adopt it.

It might be possible to register original photographs as the UR-document, so referencing it to prove validity, to expose alterations.

or just look at the hash value.

just correcting what the men said, Africa doesn't feed the world, I'm afraid, I'd say is South America, more specifically Brazil that takes this role.

Blockchain is the future

[@deep.space.12]

Here's a bright idea: Let's have the poorest producers earning a couple USD per week track all their transactions with a smartphone and mobile data subscription and spend their down time to learn the technology or else they would be barred from participating in the supply chain! What could possibly go wrong?

[@martincireg3862]

So wait the coffee guy runs his array on a public network, or he has just an database with block chain tech that all runs on his servers. Making the work that could do one server run on lets say 100 that are checking each other, genius. XD Great for him selling a database. That he has full control over.

Supply chains post pandemic have become localised too. Still th usecase make sense.

[@DannyGan]

If only humans weren't greedy, then there would be no wars 🤣

[@jerrytalksaboutit9608]

promoting blockchain as a panacea for organizational supply chain issues is as nonsensical as promoting linked lists as a solution to NHS wait times, arrays as an identity management solution or tables as cyber security solution. The technology has absolutely nothing to do with the rampant organizational corruption in the supply chain.

BSV is the only blockchain that scales. Its patented also.

[@szabolcskanyo9411]

who are the people in the interviewees in the video? :)

[@nccamsc]

The entire world's GDP is 85 Trillion and supply chains alone are 50 Trillion?

[@Jicymi]

Wow the whole MCap for crypto around 1.75 trillion currently… 50 F’ing trillion 😵‍💫😳

[@trentclark2061]

$50 trillion bet?? Seriously you've gotta love the art of clickbait don't you? Interesting Video but yeesh how you came up with that title?
