What is VeChain (VET)?
VeChain (VET) is a type of cryptocurrency that was created to decentralize the supply chain industry; its main purpose is to serve a decentralized application (dApp) ecosystem to help businesses and companies in the supply chain industry to efficiently transfer and verify supply chain data using the immutable and transparent nature of blockchain technology. The function of VeChain has now been broadened following the launch of the VeChain Thor mainnet in 2018. This made VET to not only serve the supply chain industry alone but also the broader scope of general data solution dApps.
VeChain works with companies such as BMW to prevent automobile odometer fraud during the transfer of data in the supply chain. It also works with LVMH to use VeChain in order to track luxury goods.
Other uses of VeChain include streamlining data transfers across the consumer goods industries as well as the automotive, agriculture, food safety, and carbon footprint tracking.
