Hi guys, saw, a lot of confusion yesterday about @DNVGL and their Carbon Bank and Bright Code announcement, so hope this clears it up a bit… This talks a little bit about the project, and tries to approach the subject from an unbiased viewpointhttps://t.co/oumUOOkfxj — Ben Yorke (@BenYorke) November 8, 2018

Picked this bottle up today from D.I.G wines. This bottle has an #NFC anti-counterfeiting tag. The antennas must be cut to open the bottle and the tag cannot be removed without destroying it. Anti-counterfeiting and traceability together. #AdoptionIsHere #Blockchain $VET $VTHO pic.twitter.com/biNUPpOgKQ — DontShowMeTheMemelines (@DMemelines) November 12, 2018
