#Vechain X What is it (not)
$VET is not a supplychain (SC) coin. VeChain is a public blockchain (like $ETH) on-which you can build anything you want.

This rapid expansion is due to the consensus algorithm called Proof of Authority whereby 101 companies put their reputation at stake. This results in a decentralized IaaS, existing of 101 companies with 101 different business models, services and client networks.

You could see VeChain as a decentralized IaaS whereby you pay $VTHO to use that IaaS (store data / run smartcontracts). The same way you pay AWS credits to pay for Amazon Web Services, a centralized IaaS.

You could put Toolchain in column 3 / 4.
