3.It allows them to verify instead of solely relying on trust.

How does blockchain enable digital provenance?
Blockchain is the public ledger that is transparent for everyone to access and it can be traced and tracked that’s why it enables digital provenance. -
Why doesn’t a normal database bring the same provenance?
Because it is not tracible and transparent, you have to trust that the product is what it says on the label, but there is no other way of verifying it, or if there is other way it would cost you a lot of time and research to verify it. -
Why is digital provenance such a great benefit to many businesses?
Because you don’t have to trust anymore to what label says, you can verify yourself.

How does blockchain enable digital provenance?
You can upload information to the blockchain, but you can`t erase the information from it. Which means once an information is uploaded it will permanently stay there and going to be retraceable forever. -
Why doesn`t a normal database brings the same provenance?
Because the blockchain is decentralized and all the nodes supporting the blockchain keeps a public ledger of all the transactions in the past and verifies every future transaction, by checking if the data from the previous transactions allow your recent transaction. But a regular database is centralized, and you have to trust the company holding the database that they keep track of everything honestly.
- Why is digital provenance such a great benefit to many businesses?
Because it removes the trust factor towards the finance sector, they don’t have to trust a bank that they will verify their transactions or not and when will it happen. And also they can use the blockchain to keep track of their supply chain without trusting their supplier that the product is exactly what they are saying it is, the blockchain keeps track of everything that is happening to the product.

Financial transactions on the blockchain can be tracked and audited in real-time. -
Why doesn’t a normal database bring the same provenance?
Normal databases are usually controlled by an organisation which means the user has to put their trust in them. -
Why is digital provenance such a great benefit to many businesses?
It can save a lot of time and money as transactions and accounts are combined into one making it easier to verify.

Unlike the raditional system, the blockchain is not based on “trust”. It removes the “trust” factor and enables us to tract the process of any business instead of relying on the data provided by the authorities.
-
A normal database is controlled by an authority. The data provided is processed by the people who are in charge and this causes some risks as those people could find a way to adjust the data in a favourable way.
-
It saves time to the businesses, the auditing process is much faster and the results are more precise. It makes the business more trustworty because unlike the traditional system, noone is involved.

- Why doesn’t a normal database bring the same provenance?
- from a normal database you may remove data, and the data can be lost permanently.
- Why is digital provenance such a great benefit to many businesses?
- A sigital provenance is real-time audited. Trustless and verified. Ables to create complicated smartcontracts, informational supply chains and payment methods/systems which are verified in real-time…and much more.
- much faster than tradional methods

How does blockchain enable digital provenance?
Blockchain utilises an efficient and secure network of public ledgers to verify the process (be it transactional, supply chain, accounting, etc) from point A to point B instead of using "trust".
Why doesn’t a normal database bring the same provenance?
A normal database relies on human intervention and therefore needs trust to accomplish the same tasks. Verification of the process is therefore unreliable and insecure as a human can manipulate the database.
Why is digital provenance such a great benefit to many businesses?
Businesses are able to track all the processes of transactions, supply chain from point A to B and accounts, and know that everything will be secure and transparent.

How does blockchain enable digital provenance?
Blockchain enables digital provenance because it is a public ledger openly accessible to everyone.
Why doesn’t a normal database bring the same provenance?
A normal database wont bring the same provenance because it is not transparent and audited by an entire network on a real time basis.
Why is digital provenance such a great benefit to many businesses?
Digital provenance is such a great benefit to many businesses because it provides a trustless system to many different operations of the business.

- Through a digital public ledger that is visible by all.
- A normal database is generally only available at a single or only few locations and is not made available to everyone in the world at the same time
- Business can show their customers where their product are coming from and thus give them greater credibility in the market

1.) Blockchain enables digital provenance through a “public ledger” which is a network of computers that save all transactions (considered a digital stone because transactions cannot be removed).
2.) A normal database can easily be duplicated and cannot be verified.
3.) Digital provenance is all about tracking transactions. It enables audit efficiency and removes human intervention/error.

Blockchains decentralized ledger stores and records all data chronologically and the data then is replicated throughout all the nodes and can not be changed once accepted.
- Why doesn’t a normal database bring the same provenance?
Normal databases, data can be changed/deleted and/or manipulated by its database moderator(s)
- Why is digital provenance such a great benefit to many businesses?
Because provenance is super transparent making it more trustworthy, hence more attractable

A blockchain enables digital provenance by being trustless. Everything can be verified in real time, and it can’t be manipulated.
-
A normal database can be edited and manipulated by governments or banks. Unlike a blockchain which is public, and is unable to be removed from.

It’s great for alot of buisnesses because they can see exactly what is in their products. Everything can be traced, and we get rid of the trust involved in, for example, food products.

- Blockchain enables digital provenance through the connection of accounting and transactions. Since blockchain is like a digital stone where it holds data that cannot be erased and a network of computers that checks transactions, it is able to track everything to its place of origin. In other words, you don’t need to have someone physically come and check your receipts and be audited-- the blockchain can verify where anything came from.
- A normal database can be edited and is not always being verified, therefore not providing trust in where a certain transaction truly originated/occurred.
- Digital provenance is a great benefit to many businesses as they can provide customers the transparency of what materials were required in making the product/service they are providing. It also provides businesses trust in their suppliers for that same factor.

Most normal databases are owned by one entity, the entity can change data or delete.
