I am lining up the key characteristics/enablers that I believe make blockchain valuable to supply chain and trade. Next step will be to map these characteristics/enablers with supply chain and trade processes to appreciate whether blockchain-based solutions are the right fit.

Perhaps you may want to comments/ amend/ add?

These are the characteristics/enablers:

Notarization
Title transfer
Chain of possession
Smart contracts
Irrevocability
Ownership and uniqueness of separately held documents (e.g., documents associated with an LC)
History if transactions/ time-stamping

Hope to hear soon from those of you who want to keep the conversation ongoing.
