BLOCKNIT LLC Launches Revolutionary Anti-Counterfeit System for Luxury Handbags, Starting with Bottega Veneta Crossbody Bags

BELLEVUE, WA – October 26, 2023 – BLOCKNIT LLC, a cutting-edge technology firm based in Bellevue, Washington, today announced the launch of its innovative anti-counterfeit solution, initially focused on authenticating high-end luxury handbags, with a first-of-its-kind application specifically for Bottega Veneta crossbody bags. This isn’t just some sticker or tag; BLOCKNIT is weaving security into the product lifecycle, helping consumers and brands fight the growing problem of fake goods. “We’ve been watching the counterfeit market explode, and it's hitting luxury brands, and especially handbags like Bottega Veneta, hard,” says John Smith, CEO of BLOCKNIT LLC. “Consumers are getting ripped off, brands are losing revenue and reputation, and it's a mess. We built BLOCKNIT to actually solve this, not just put a band-aid on it.” The Problem with Fakes: Why Bottega Veneta Crossbody Bags Are a Prime Target Bottega Veneta’s iconic crossbody bags – known for their Intrecciato woven leather and understated elegance – are consistently ranked among the most coveted luxury accessories. Their high resale value and popularity make them a major target for counterfeiters. Online marketplaces and social media are flooded with convincing fakes that can be difficult, even for experienced buyers, to identify. “These aren’t the obviously fake bags anymore,” explains Sarah Lee, BLOCKNIT's Head of Product. “Counterfeiters are getting really good. They’re copying materials, stitching, even the little details. That's where we come in.” How BLOCKNIT Works: Beyond Tags and Serial Numbers BLOCKNIT isn’t relying on traditional methods like serial numbers or RFID tags, which are easily copied or removed. Instead, BLOCKNIT uses a multi-layered approach integrating microscopic, secure markers directly into the materials used in the production of Bottega Veneta crossbody bags. These markers are: Invisible to the Naked Eye: The markers are microscopic and embedded within the leather and lining, ensuring they don't affect the bag’s aesthetic or feel. Unique and Traceable: Each marker contains a unique identifier linked to the bag’s production details – where it was made, when, and the specific materials used. Think of it like a digital fingerprint. Authenticated with a Smartphone App: Consumers can easily verify a bag’s authenticity using the BLOCKNIT app. Simply scan a designated area of the bag with the app, and it confirms whether the markers are present and match the bag’s registered profile. No special equipment needed. Blockchain-Backed Security: The data associated with each marker is securely stored on a blockchain, making it tamper-proof and incredibly difficult for counterfeiters to manipulate. This ensures long-term verification and builds trust. What This Means for Bottega Veneta Owners & Buyers For current Bottega Veneta crossbody bag owners, BLOCKNIT offers peace of mind. The system allows you to confidently prove the authenticity of your investment, particularly valuable for resale or insurance purposes. For those looking to purchase a Bottega Veneta crossbody bag, BLOCKNIT offers a simple and reliable way to avoid falling victim to fraud. “Imagine you’re buying a pre-owned bag online,” says Smith. “You can ask the seller to scan it with the BLOCKNIT app before you hand over your money. It takes seconds, and it gives you rock-solid confirmation.” BLOCKNIT’s Partnership with Authenticators and Resale Platforms BLOCKNIT isn’t just targeting individual consumers. The company is actively partnering with luxury authenticators and resale platforms to integrate its technology into their existing processes. “We’re working to make authentication seamless for everyone involved in the luxury resale market,” explains Lee. “This means faster, more accurate verification and increased trust for buyers and sellers.” Beyond Bottega Veneta: The Future of BLOCKNIT While the initial launch focuses on Bottega Veneta crossbody bags, BLOCKNIT’s technology is scalable and adaptable to a wide range of luxury goods. The company plans to expand its coverage to other handbag brands, apparel, footwear, and accessories in the coming months. “This is about protecting brands and consumers across the entire luxury market,” says Smith. “We believe BLOCKNIT can become the gold standard for anti-counterfeit technology, giving people the confidence to buy and sell luxury goods with peace of mind.” About BLOCKNIT LLC BLOCKNIT LLC, headquartered in Bellevue, Washington, is a technology company dedicated to combating the growing problem of counterfeit goods.
