Why counterfeiting is the problem the Authentication Industry secretly needs
A reflection by Guri Dhillon, Founder, XRD Nano Ltd (UK) Most industries dream of solving their greatest problem. Ours quietly hopes it never does. Every year, billions are spent fighting fakes, yet the problem refuses to disappear. We design clever holograms, smarter inks, traceable codes, digital twins and new databases, while the counterfeiters continue to keep pace with astonishing agility. Perhaps this is not failure at all but balance, an unspoken understanding that kee
