Abstract: Blockchain traceability is the very usability that is the proponent of quick blockchain adoption throughout the world and now an expert has given way to the question; Is blockchain traceability a myth? Blockchain has widely been accepted due to the security of data and the swift transfer of data without delays on top of lower chances of a breach. Now a leading agriculture business consultant at the famed PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) , Craig Heraghty was recently on air and told the Australian news that Blockchain only gives the deception of trackability. Craig Heraghty explained that scammers only require the QR code used to check the product legitimacy, and copying the QR code on the blockchain would render the blockchain useless.
