RE: Microsoft exploring blockchain and bitcoin for decentralized ID systems - by @voiceofreason
blockchain seems like it would be awesome for managing logistics and inventory and massive global shipping problems, maybe even dealing with things like customs more efficiently.
Yeah the integration network between each entity in the supply chain at the moment is complex and highly susceptible to malware attacks. With logistics being such a fluid entity its also hard to build automated systems that can adapt.
In controlled warehouses like Amazon it works like a dream.
Bridging between each company's preferred software application is doable, and it all talks to each other, but yeah I think industry can learn alot from current blockchain applications. ARK for one, and bridging. Getting code to talk to one another is one of the major hurdles right now.
Though I do think block chain and some form of adaptive learning machine intelligence will eventually supersede the systems we have in place right now. I don't think it will be decentralised tech, that is as per IBM no crypto currency tokens governing the staking process and securing the network. But its interesting to watch.
