IOTA proves logistics evidence without publishing private operations.
The deep link opens the traceability step because this layer is about custody, Merkle roots and public verification. It connects directly with Proof Verify so an auditor can test a hash.
Public proofVisible: event hash, Merkle root, tx/explorer and inclusion status.
Private in nexIDPrivate: customer, route manifest, QA docs and commercial contract.
