Use DNA and a blockchain to track the wood from plantation to store. This would be more transparent and harder to circumvent. Still potential for corruption at the first stage where it is entered into the ledger but then it should be reasonably resilient.
- yodsanklai 2y agoHow would a blockchain help compared to a regular db maintained by a trusted party?
- ok_computer 2y agoLol and the blockchain NFTs were encoded urls because a compressed image is too heavy for the chain, but millions of DNA samples, logged into perpetuity. I don’t see how the original comment provides a sincere evaluation of the goodness of fit for that played out solution. Then what about running the wood genetic sequencing labs in source countries. Explain how these developing countries are going to undertake a DNA based quality system for a highly fungible commodity so we can feel good about wood flooring.
