"OriginTrail is enabling frictionless international trade.

Once the data is on our network, it can be harnessed for different shipping-related purposes. We have created four larger groups of use cases that are going being proposed and they fall within: Supply Chain Integrity (authenticity, brand protection), Supply Chain Management, Compliance/Certification, and Trade Finance." - Tomaž Levak explained in an interview[8]

When asked what steps blockchain-based service providers need to take to go mainstream, Tomaž Levak responded:

"If service providers wish to create mainstream applications, they need to start with small tangible steps creating value but have a vision on how to replicate that value at scale. At the same time, they should not look to entirely replace legacy systems."
