One vault, one recipe, few witnesses. That's how a chicken empire guards its most precious asset—a sauce formula locked away with more security than most people get for their crypto wallets. It's fascinating when you think about it: physical assets need safes and silence, but what if there was a way to prove ownership and authenticity without revealing the secret itself? Blockchain verification, digital fingerprinting, immutable records... the same principles we use to secure digital assets could revolutionize how businesses protect their intellectual property. Whether it's a legendary sauce or a digital creation, the fundamental question stays the same—how do we verify what's ours without compromising the mystery? That's where the real innovation lies.
