Half of the four startups working here use blockchain applications.

In agriculture, blockchain is also widely used. Mỹ Xương cooperative in the Mekong Delta province of Dong Thap is among the first to apply blockchain in tracing their mangoes’ origin. By scanning a QR code, all information on the product can be easily traced. With its transparent and high-security features, blockchain is a breakthrough example in the context of the emerging Industry 4.0.
