Is the problem of storing the history of product within a supply chain "solved"? Let me try an example. There is a company growing organic oranges. Do I need to research the regulations for organicness? The company growing the oranges adds a block to the blockchain containing information or pointers to information required to verify their authenticity. (what about all the products used for growing the oranges, not sure how all the details work here. I dont think that is in the scope) Then as the shipment travels through the supply chain, each step along the way a new "transaction" is added to the chain. These transactions are created by each of the companies handling the shipment. -what is the scope of "the blockchain". is there one chain per shipment, are all shipments tracked on one blockchain, is it separated by industry. wouldn't shipping companies operate across multiple industries? do they participate in several chains? are there several blockchains interacting (whatever that means)? Can two chains interact? does one shipping company have their own blockchain. \ No newline at end of file +what is the scope of "the blockchain". is there one chain per shipment, are all shipments tracked on one blockchain, is it separated by industry. wouldn't shipping companies operate across multiple industries? do they participate in several chains? are there several blockchains interacting (whatever that means)?

Is governance in this sense the same as within an open blockchain? within an open blockchain the goverance includes decisions about update and changes to the code of the blockchain. what is governance within a closed blockchain. Is the code closed source? is development distributed between participating parties, or one central group?
