About this series

Global trade is a complex, interconnected system that involves a variety of actors, from businesses and governments to individuals. Over the years, commerce has evolved to become more efficient and secure, but there are still challenges to be overcome.
One of these challenges is the lack of transparency and trust in the trading system. Currently, information about business transactions is often fragmented and difficult to access. This can lead to fraud, corruption and other forms of misconduct.
Another challenge is the complexity and bureaucracy of trade. Business processes are often slow and inefficient, which can increase costs and harm companies' competitiveness.
Blockchain technology has the potential to solve these challenges and transform global trade. Blockchain is a decentralized ledger technology that uses cryptography to ensure data security and integrity .
How blockchain works
Blockchain is a network of computers that share a database of information. This information is stored in blocks, which are connected to each other using encryption.
When a new transaction occurs, it is recorded in a new block. That block is then added to the chain, which is a sequence of blocks that extends backwards in time.
Cryptography ensures that information on the blockchain cannot be altered or falsified. This is because each block contains a hash of the previous block. A hash is a unique code that is generated from the block data.
If a block is changed, the hash of the previous block will also be changed. This would cause the entire blockchain to be inconsistent, which would be detected by network participants.
Blockchain applications in commerce
Blockchain can be used for a variety of applications in commerce, including :
Product traceability: Blockchain can be used to track the origin and history of a product. This can help ensure the authenticity of products and reduce the risk of fraud.
Supply chain management: Blockchain can be used to improve supply chain visibility and efficiency. This can help reduce costs, improve customer service and increase sustainability.
Payment of transactions: Blockchain can be used to make payments securely and efficiently. This can reduce transaction costs and improve user experience.
Product traceability
Product traceability is a process that allows you to trace the origin and history of a product. This can be important to ensure product authenticity, prevent fraud and meet regulatory requirements.
Blockchain can be used to improve product traceability in several ways. For example, blockchain can be used to record information about the origin, production, transportation and distribution of a product. This information can be accessed by all participants in the supply chain, which improves transparency and visibility.
Supply chain management
Supply chain management is the process of planning, implementing and controlling the flow of products, services, information and finance from origin to consumption.
Blockchain can be used to improve supply chain management in several ways. For example, blockchain can be used to track order status, manage inventory, and automate processes. This can help reduce costs, improve customer service and increase efficiency.
Payment of transactions
Transaction payment is the process of transferring money from one person to another.
Blockchain can be used to make payments securely and efficiently. For example, blockchain can be used to create digital currencies such as Bitcoin. These digital currencies can be used to make payments without the need for intermediaries such as banks or financial institutions.
