VeChain (VET) is a blockchain enabled platform that enhances the supply chain management processes. It uses a mix of blockchain technology and the in-house smart chip to track items throughout their lifecycle. This smart chip or VeChain Identity (VID) can be used in a variety of IoT items such as NFC chips, RFID trackers or QR codes. This blockchain is an immutable ledger that provides accurate information on the products. VeChain also improves logistics systems through simplified product tracking. It utilizes the tamper-proof and distributed ledger technology to provide the retailers and consumers the ability to determine the quality and authenticity of products that are purchased. The use of VeChain Identity (VID) technology helps in marking and tracking the products. These VIDs are created using the SHA256 hash function, which generates a random hash value that corresponds to a vid.
Security on the platform is maintained using network nodes which can be controlled by the businesses and organizations participating in the ecosystem. These network nodes provide key services such as quality inspection and wallet services and also work as a private key management service provider. Its native tokens- VEN is used as GAS which will enable the execution of the smart contract.
