What Hacker News says?
That's a proposal, one, and, two, it doesn't mention anything about diamonds being tracked that way, only other ores. An important thing to do, but not entirely relevant to the discussion at hand. My knowledge comes from my knowledge of what people have said about Brilliant Earth, which charges a premium based on the notion that its diamonds come from Canada. https://iwantwhatitsworth.com/blog/brilliant-earth-diamon…

HN discussionIn the meantime, I have to wonder if companies like Diamond Foundry: http://diamondfoundry.com/ and others are going to take over the overall diamond trade. (Or, for a different perspective: http://iwantwhatitsworth.com/blog/diamond-foundry-lab-made-d... )
