Do blockchain and IoT architecture create informedness to support provenance tracking in the product lifecycle?
Consumers often lack information about the origin and provenance of the products they buy. They may ask: Is a food product truly organic? Or, what is the origin of the gemstone in the ring I purchased? They also may have sustainability concerns about the footprint of a product at the end of its life...
