The Role of Blockchain in Digital Product Passports
The greatest vulnerability of a digital record is database manipulation. Blockchain ledger technology neutralizes this risk by establishing immutable cryptographic anchors.
1. Immutable Data Guarantees
Once supply chain milestones or environmental coefficients are hashed onto a public or consortium ledger, they cannot be backdated or falsified. End users achieve math-backed certainty.
2. Traceability in Secondary Markets
From luxury timepieces to heavy industrial assets, blockchain facilitates flawless secondary market provenance tracking, neutralizing fraud and structural asset theft.
