From a supply chain perspective I feel it will be revolutionary from the decentralized nature and all parties sharing a unified data set for let's say a shipment. Right now a shipment transfers from party to party to party all in their proprietary databases. Working off a shipment from one central point will drastically alter the way things work. As well with the coming wave of IoT, robotics and automation in/on everything automatically fulfilling and queuing the next party/parties in the chain will be a radical improvement. It is mind boggling how much manual, paper based work goes into putting that t-shirt on your back today. :)
I didn't see them or may have missed them - this will destroy you, if these trees could talk, russian circles, john frusciante and my fave would probably be clouddead but what do I know :)
ive owned and sold a 3pl back in 2007 and now run a global fulfillment platform - http://goodmove.xyz
we have hooks into multiple warehouses all around the world - mostly in California but a couple in Hong Kong which greatly reduces costs (assuming your manufacturing there).
