The blockchain technology is gathering increasing interest from many fields. This is due to its many properties, which make it suitable for many different applications. In particular, the blockchain technology could offer an high level of data security, redundancy and distribution and guarantee at the same time its immutability and authenticity, which could make guarantors and other third parties superfluous and thus have disruptive implication in the financial world, as proved by the Bitcoin blockchain. However, the technology application can be easily extended to other fields, and in particular to the supply chain. In fact, one of the main limit the supply chain companies have to face is the lack of a standard interface to exchange information and a way to authenticate it: data gets corrupted or simply lost in translation when exchanged between different information systems.
