If you Google "blockchain provenance" you'll see 5k hits. I didn't leaf
through, but there was at least one entry on the first page which appeared
to be what you're looking for.

I watched a tv programme the other evening where an advocate was waxing
enthusiastically for using the block chain method as a way of providing
indisputable provenance to works of art, intellectual property, patents,
diamonds, or origins of other precious stones and such like, much in theso
way
that we use fingerprinting and other data to establish ownership and
history
of an object. Does anyone on here know anything about this area, and if
would they care to share their knowledge please?

LEN "rabbi" SASSAMA
1980-2011
Len was our friend.
A brilliant mind,
a kind soul, and
a devious schemer;
husband to Meredith
brother to Calvin,
son to Jim and
Dana Hartshorn,
coauthor and
cofounder and
Shmoo and so much
more. We dedicate
this silly hack to
Len, who would have
found it absolutely
hilarious.

P.S. My apologies,
BitCoin people. He
also would have
LOL'd at BitCoin's
new dependency upon
ASCII BERNANKE
