FedEx, the shipping kingdom has announced yesterday that the organization would begin utilizing emerging Blockchain technology to track bulky and costly shipments in the near future, the CEO Fred Smith confirms.

By some means, they could benefit from using a blockchain technology, for instance: by tracking consignments on a blockchain platform, FedEx can instantaneously resolve any disputes about deferrals, misappropriations, and other glitches that would be persisting through the lifecycle of the shipments. Decentralized ledger system (DLT), which is vibrantly visible on the network, can’t be altered by any party, subsequently, the information on this platform mechanically shared with all authenticated users.

“If you are not operating at the edge of new technologies, you will surely be disrupted,” said Smith on Monday at Consensus 2018, the massive blockchain conference currently being held in New York. “If you are not willing to embrace new technologies like the internet of things and blockchain to face those new threats, you are, maybe subtly, at some point... going to extinction.”

Well, to wrap up this post, we reckon that FedEx is encouraging the deployment of blockchain technology that would likely optimize the cost factors and assist end-to-end operations that would flow smoothly simultaneously leveraging the organization as more up-to-date than any counterparts.
