3月3日,來自Business Insider的報告顯示中國電子商務巨頭京東正在實施區(qū)塊鏈來追蹤其肉類銷售供應鏈。
京東表示,客戶將能監(jiān)控他們的肉類,從澳大利亞農(nóng)場一直到他們的家門口。當系統(tǒng)在今年春天晚些時候上線運行時,消費者將能夠檢查肉禽如何被飼養(yǎng),被屠殺和運輸。
跟蹤系統(tǒng)是與澳大利亞牛肉生產(chǎn)商HW Greenham&Sons Pty Ltd.合作打造的。
在中國,假冒商品總能逃過監(jiān)管。 2016年8月,中國東南地區(qū)發(fā)現(xiàn)319頭受禁毒藥物污染,包括沙丁胺醇和鹽酸克侖特羅的豬,食品安全問題總是出現(xiàn)也沒有根治。區(qū)塊鏈技術為提高消費者信心提供了一個解決方案,因為它可以在幾秒鐘內(nèi)驗證肉的來源。
京東首席技術官陳章表示,新的基于區(qū)塊鏈的系統(tǒng)將向消費者保證他們已經(jīng)為其家庭購買了安全可靠的產(chǎn)品。
“中國的消費者不僅想要優(yōu)質的進口產(chǎn)品,他們希望知道他們可以相信他們的食品來源和方式,而區(qū)塊鏈幫助我們實現(xiàn)這種愿望?!?陳章說。
區(qū)塊鏈也為食品供應商帶來了實惠,除了提高消費者信心外,還可以使用分布式賬本系統(tǒng)追蹤食源性疾?。ㄈ缟抽T氏菌)的來源。這種更準確的跟蹤方法可以使供應商快速找到受污染產(chǎn)品的來源,并可能在召回過程中減少食物浪費。
去年,美國零售巨頭沃爾瑪與IBM合作建立了一個區(qū)塊鏈平臺,他們可以從他們的產(chǎn)品清單中識別并移除召回的食物。據(jù)Business Insider透露,JD,Walmart和IBM、清華大學都是中國區(qū)塊鏈食品安全聯(lián)盟的成員。
The Vice-Minister of the?Russian?Ministry for Telecom and Mass Communications (Minkomsvyaz) has stated that, in order for?Blockchain?technology to be adopted at the government level, it will be necessary to create a platform which does not involve mining,?reports?local news source RNS on March 1.
Vice-Minister Alexei Kozyrev stated at the beginning of the “Kritposredsa” forum, that the implementation of a Blockchain system would help solve the problem of long-term storage and protection of documents and forms of identification. He added that in order to meet these requirements, the platform should be “unified and universal”.
Kozyrev further explained his position:
“The existing solutions in Blockchain from an organizational point of view are very, very unstable. According to data from Tokendata, more than 50% of Blockchain platforms created have already gone bankrupt or disappeared. ?If we’re talking about how the government will adopt Blockchain, then obviously we cannot count on platforms which were created by commercial organizations, because these platforms are very, very unreliable. In this way we understand, that we need to create our own platform for Blockchain technology.”
The Russian government has already moved forward with Blockchain initiatives late last year. In early December, the government of Moscow?began a pilot test?on using Blockchain to improve its local voting systems and improve transparency in its “Active Citizen” initiative.
On Dec. 19, 2017, Russia’s state-run bank,?Sberbank,?announced?a partnership with Russia’s Federal Antimonopoly Service (FAS) to implement document transfer and storage via Blockchain.
