Pharmaceuticals giant Merck is seeking a patent for a way to use blockchain in order to track goods as they move through the supply chain.
That distributed network could then be used to store information verifying the authenticity of the item.
Merck already maintains internal processes for eliminating fake goods that move through its systems, and the proposed patent seems as if it would fit into those wider efforts.
The pharmaceuritcals firm goes on to explain:
“Furthermore, the stored information can be accessed wherever access to the blockchain is available.
Whether Merck will move to “put pills on the blockchain” remains to be seen, but the company has pursued a number of initiatives to date within the technology space.
