Documented cause
BlockchainMX built supply chain blockchain for Mexican multinationals. SAP and EDI already handled supply chain tracking reliably. Blockchain added complexity without solving problems.
Lesson
“Blockchain for supply chain must target specific cross-border trust problems that SAP cannot solve — food safety traceability from Mexico to US buyers, or customs verification that requires non-repudiable records.”
