Blockchain is making serious in-roads into Supply Chain.

One company working in this space is BlockApps. I invited Sid Siefken, their Director of Business Development to come on the podcast to talk a little about what they're up to.

We talked about some of the Blockchain-enabled solutions they're developing - TraceHarvest for seed tracking, Genesis for Beef, and TraceCarbon for tracking carbon emissions. We also talked about the energy requirements that blockchains can have, and why these solutions are more suited to a blockchain than a simple database.

As usual, I learned loads, and I hope you do too...
