starbucks coin blockchain

Our favorite coffee franchise Starbucks will implement blockchain technology with Microsoft's Azure blockchain service. The goal is to track coffee production all the way back to the farmers in Costa Rica, Rwanda or Colombia.

GeekWire reported the "Bean to cup" project will allow customers to follow the process of their favorite coffees. So as you order your tall, Non-Fat Latte With Caramel Drizzle, you can actually see who produced the coffee beans.

In addition, the pilot program provides the farmers with financial opportunities that our beloved blockchain technology creates.

As of today, there is no announcement of a "Starbucks coin" yet.

The news doesn't come as a total surprise, as we see multiple established giant companies implementing blockchain in their future plans. As we previously reported on BMW, Facebook, Airbnb & Samsung.
