# Assessment 7

#### How does blockchain prevent wine counterfeiting and enable premium pricing? (Select all that apply)

* [ ] Blockchain makes physical wine bottles harder to copy
* [x] Each bottle gets a digital identity with complete provenance recorded on blockchain
* [x] Consumers can scan QR codes to verify authenticity and production history
* [ ] Blockchain automatically increases wine prices
* [x] Producers can prove vintage, origin, and storage conditions immutably
* [ ] Counterfeiters can't access blockchain technology|<br>

**Notes to Learners**

In premium wine markets where **10-20%+ may be counterfeit** (dVIN Labs), blockchain authentication protects both consumers and producers. When consumers can verify they're buying authentic premium wine through systems like dVIN's Digital Cork, they'll pay premium prices. When counterfeiters can't create convincing fakes because they can't replicate blockchain history, **the counterfeit market collapses**. The result is producers capturing full premium pricing.
