- Blockchain enables digital provenance to be able to track the crypto to keep safe.
- The normal database may be keeping count but not as great as the provenance to keep all cryptos safe.
- The reason digital provenance is a great benefit is that some type of database is a jungle and needs to keep track and of attacks which is why blockchain provenance is important.

By providing a immutable public ledger, which is not only monetored by one single institution/governancy, but a network of people. The data can be accest by everyone.

Because it is monitored by a centrelised organisation which has to be trustworthy.It isn´t accesable by everyone. Data can be changed.

Especially in a time like this (2021), where there is so much information available, so much doubt, so much need for transparency, companies which base there data storage on a blockchain solutions might be able to match the demand of peoples doubt and uncertanty. I often hear my father say: How do you really know if this food is farmed organicly?

1.Information can be entered into the blockchain and cannot be removed or edited, it is publicly viewable .
2.Normal database doesnt bring the same provennace because it is almost certainly centralized and puts trust in people. Things can be edited ,removed or manipulated .
3.It is trustless, fast and can be real time audited .Your bussiness will not be at the mercy of a sofware system that is easily manipulated and controlled by one company.It can handle lots of information so can bring efficiencies across a bussiness.

1 All node has the blockchain on computer and every transaction can be retrievabe. You can add transactions but you cannot remove.
2 There are acconting and transaction layers that can not be applied in one place in other databases.
3 You don t have to trust in a third party, you have to only trust in math and technology.

How does blockchain enable digital provenance?
Provenance will bring acountability to players within a market and the supply chain. Certification can be gained at each stage and written into the blocks as an immutable records that is open to public view. Theoretically on could scan a QR code on your phone and back trace everything along each step.
- Why doesn’t a normal database bring the same provenance?
Databases are currently held on private servers with limited access and not open to public. Accountability is limited. Databases as a central point are also open to weakness. And who gives the authorizers the authority to certify something, as opposed to ‘in math we trust’
Why is digital provenance such a great benefit to many businesses?
Not just any digital provenance but specifically blockchain related. In the situation of an open ledger the digital record is open for audit and public viewing and analysis from anywhere

A1. Blockchain enables digital provenance through decentralisation by using a network of public ledgers also known as nodes to track and verify transactions across various industries i.e. audit of products, services, and respective supply chains for example in the finance industry, technology, agriculture, transport, etc. Please note that data in the blockchain can not be deleted nor edited.
A2. A normal database does not bring the same provenance as a result of centralised processes rendering data to tampering. Contrary to blockchain, a normal database does not deploy coding and scientific methods into the verification process. Therefore limiting traceability, transparency and accountability.
A3. Digital provenance is such a great benefit to many businesses as it removes human error and bias. The verification process is faster, flawless, efficient and effective. In the blockchain, provenance can be tracked in real-time auditing. Although data is kept in the public ledger, data can also be encrypted and not accessible to undesired parties. Blockchain allows the exclusion of the “middle-man” in the auditing process i.e. reduction of auditing costs.

1 - Data in the blockchain can only be added and not removed. Also all the information int he ledger is public and can be tracked.
2 - Because contrary to blockchain a normal database is centralised and information in it can be edited.
3 - Blockchain removes the need for trust and brings the possibility to verify the data.

How does blockchain enable digital provenance?
Blockchain enables digital provenance by being a public ledger/database where new data can be confirmed once and old data is immutable and permanent. This give blockchain the ability to track digital or digitized assets and items during any transaction or process. -
Why doesn’t a normal database bring the same provenance?
Data in normal databases can be edited and changed. Normal databases also don’t require data inputs in for transactions. -
Why is digital provenance such a great benefit to many businesses?
Digital provenance can be achieved by digitizing assets or items with QR codes. This enables business to know exactly where they are sourcing their supplies from and it also allows business to be fully transparent to their customers about how their goods and services are produced. This can increases customer satisfaction, business growth, and overall profitability.

- In a blockchain, all transactions can be tracked in real-time. Blockchain enables digital provenance with real-time auditing. It’s all about being able to track something (for ex. financial transactions, where your clothes coming from, or your ingredients for the food that you are making)
- Why doesn’t a normal database bring the same provenance?
- Normal data can not bring the same provenance because is centralized and data can be removed. Is corrupted and delayed basically.
- Why is digital provenance such a great benefit to many businesses?
- Digital provenance is a great benefit because it’s trustless and it fights cheating and data manipulation. The business simpy just can verify and trace data.

Blockchain enables provenance by tracking everything from the beginning. Also it is a public ledger meaning you will be able to see all the history of something, not just what the database owner allows you to see.
-
Normal databases are not always public, meaning the information distributed is controlled by a organization (human). Since humans are the ones controlling normal databases, there is a chance for information to be manipulated as we see pretty frequently in the news with some companies,cough, cough Luckin Coffee cough, cough.

Do not trust; Verify.
Zero chance of manipulation means low to zero chance of fraud. No fraud means more investors and a more stable product. Also, if all the “ingredients” are shown from the beginning then only the companies that deserve to rise to the top will rise to the top. No smoke and mirrors.

Why doesn’t a normal database bring the same provenance? A centralized database controls who can see what. Even if they fully opened up their database for anyone to explore the rules around reviewing what is actually open would still have to be audited. When a person has any power over a centralized system there is always a chance for failure/corruption.

Why is digital provenance such a great benefit to many businesses? Having data wide open allows for more collaboration and faster growth. It also removes the need to pay for centralized administrators. Being open and honest about your data and business provides your customers will a level of comport.

The ledger is publicly available and a transaction only enters the ledger when it is verified by others. The transaction layer can be combined with the auditing layer to perform instantaneous auditing. This way, the provenance of a transaction cannot be corrupted by one individual acting in bad faith.
- Why doesn’t a normal database bring the same provenance?
For example, if the accounting department at a large company wants to falsify their records for tax reporting, they can simply delete a few rows on a spreadsheet and their records are changed like magic. Nobody can see what happened; we just have to trust the accountant to tell the truth.

This would be a huge benefit to any company who needs to convey a sense of trust about the product’s provenance/origins. Food, fashion, all kinds of physical services, factories could use this to verify their quality.

- Because the data in the blockchain can not be altered or removed by anyone, therefore blockchains can confirm the chronology of the ownership, custody or location of a historical object.
- A centralized ledger does not provide immutability, this means it can be altered after its creation.
- Provenance in the digital space removes the need for auditing by third-parties, it can now be done in realtime on a public blockchain, for companies this means its more cost-effective and using a DLT ads to there integrity.

- How does blockchain enable digital provenance?
- Blockchain is a decentralized and unvoidable public ledger in which transactions are all tied to each other in chronological order. This means that anything that you want to track can be traced back to its origins using blockchain technology. In the example of a supply chain, you could trace back the origins of any product to its individual components and where they were assembled by consulting the ledger, and you can trust the information there is the truth since the blockchain network works with consensus, making the network more resistant to attack.
- Why doesn’t a normal database bring the same provenance?
- A normal database does not interconect transactions to one another in chronological order, therefore it can be edited after a transaction is completed. This makes it less reliable because you will have to trust the database has not been manipulated.
- Why is digital provenance such a great benefit to many businesses?
- It allows for trustless exchange of goods. The origin of the goods/services that are being transacted are verifiable, allowing businesses or individuals to weed out undesirables in their supply chain, or verify themselves the origins of the product/services they are purchasing. It is also infinetly accountable; it is easy to trace back any transaction to discern its date, amount, and destination.
