Retailers face a myriad of steep macroeconomic challenges, from global competition and the growth of online shopping, to margin pressure. Blockchain – the technology underpinning the Bitcoin cryptocurrency – can help retailers overcome these challenges.
Not sure where or how blockchain might help your business? Here are five questions to ask.
- In what areas would assured, cost-efficient authenticity most increase sales or reduce costs?
- How much could our organization benefit from improved visibility in our supply chain? What areas in particular would benefit the most?
- How much would a tamper-proof digital transaction history drive value to our customers and our supply chain?
- How much could substantial automation of business decisions drive value to our company? (For example, if transactions A and B happen, then transaction C automatically happens.)
- How do we improve our current technological capabilities to take the earliest, and greatest, advantage of blockchain?
