BLOCKStrain Technology (TSX.V: DNAX) has developed a blockchain-based genetic registration process that provides verification security for growers and consumers in the cannabis industry. An article discussing the company reads: “BLOCKStrain has adapted the open-source ledger’s technology to provide a cannabis genome-to-sale genetic chain of evidence that provides proof of ownership to brand builders in the multibillion-dollar industry and allows consumers to verify where a product originated and where it has been before landing in their shopping carts. In between the two extremes of the pipeline, distributors, shipping companies and government agencies also have a stake in auditing a product’s wellbeing. Moreover, the platform forms the foundation for what could become IP protection for growers and producers who produce branded products.”
