Blockchains could help restore trust in the food we choose to eat
http://goo.gl/Q1RiI9 Yet another use case for blockchain technology. As security issues become ever more critical in our electronic systems, there are so many areas, other than finance, where this technology can be used. Cheers, Tony -- Tony White
Great catch Tony. At BitHub we recently judged a hackathon dubbed #Hack4Farming that was looking at using Blockchain for supply chain and we had some local teams develop solutions around this. It was great to see interest in blockchain for providing transparency and security in tracking various aspects of food supply. You can see the photos for the event here <http://bithub.co.ke/gallery/> blog post is coming soon. We will certainely see more interesting solutions in the space in the near future. regards, John On Wed, Aug 10, 2016 at 8:13 PM, Tony White via kictanet < kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> wrote:
