VeChain
VeChain is a blockchain platform that focuses on supply chain management and smart contracts.[1] Its tokens are listed on crypto-trading platforms as VET and VTHO.[2] Unlike other blockchains, its reliability is based on the use of the proof of authority (PoA) consensus model.[3] Its enabler, the VeChain Foundation, has formed partnerships with highly prominent companies from various industries, e.g. DB Schenker, BMW, DNV GL, etc.[4] It has been used to provide retail and supply chain solutions in the fields of cold-chain logistics as well as luxury and fashion.[5] In December 2020, VeChain became the first 5-star blockchain service provider as rated by TÜV Saarland, a renowned German certification institution.[6] Since January 2021, VeChain has been used in Cyprus as a key element of the healthcare record system E-HCert used by the Mediterranean Hospital of Cyprus and Aretaeio Hospital.[7][8] In June 2021, it was reported that VeChain and DNV had enabled Renji Hospital, a high-level hospital in China, to launch the MyBaby app, the world’s first blockchain-based in vitro fertilisation (IVF) service application, providing for the verification of the most important steps in IVF for the prospective parents.[9][10]
