One of the biggest names in the auto industry says no one will own a car in 20 years Bob Lutz is a former Marine who worked for Ford, General Motors, Chrysler, and BMW, usually as the resident "car guy", says that the auto industry is on an accelerating change curve. "For hundreds of years, the horse was the prime mover of humans and for the past 120 years it has been the automobile," he said. "Now we are approaching the end of the line for the automobile because travel will be in standardized modules. The end state will be the fully autonomous module with no capability for the driver to exercise command." IT solutions based on blockchain platforms like VLB Tokens ( www.vlb.io) will help automate car maintenance, insurance claim processing, and after market spare parts management.

Today, at the Moscow Blockchain Conference we spoke with Marina Guryeva, the CEO of the cyber • Fund. She said that the most promising blockchain projects were those that help creating trust in the environments where no one trusts each other. For example, on the automotive market we have car dealers, repair shops, insurance companies and banks that have to verify information one after another. This creates inefficiency and redundancy in business processes and information. Blockchain database can store information for all market participants and eliminate the need to verify it every time, which will decrease transaction costs, reduce fraud and allow selling cars at a fair price. Buying a car is not a gamble anymore. Join the first vehicle lifecycle blockchain story with CarFix and VLB Token ( www.vlb.io)! |

6 applications for blockchain in the automotive industry. A US-based think-tank, Tractica, identified 6 ways how blockchain can be useful for the automotive industry. 1) Automotive/Internet of Things Interactions A future of autonomous cars, not to mention “millions or billions” of devices communicating with each other efficiently requires that their interactions and transactions exist on an immutable database of shared, secure, and highly permissioned access. VLB Tokens’ ( www.VLB.io) shared ledger between automotive OEMs, parts distributors, dealerships, service mechanics, insurance providers, and others can support the ability for parts or equipment within a car to autonomously sense its own needs. 2) Auto Financing Purchasing cars typically requires loans to finance the transaction. In the spring of 2017, Indian automotive OEM Mahindra, created a blockchain incubator focused specifically on the automotive financing use case. 3) Automotive Title Transfer The process of transferring ownership from buyer to seller of an asset – a car or other form of property – is one that requires numerous middlemen, phases, and reconciliations to execute. A company called BigChainDB is developing CarPass in an effort to centralize all information about a car to a shared immutable and transparent database, immune to fraud or tampering. 4) Insurance Claim Processing Automotive OEMs could potentially use blockchain technologies like smart contracts or private keys to streamline the filing of certain insurance claims, automatically deploy service technicians, or automate payout. 5) Supply Chain Management The automotive supply chain is incredibly complex, consisting of numerous types of parts, hardware, software, and firmware suppliers, distributors, dealers, regulatory agencies, insurance companies, and more. Blockchain technologies can be applied to each of the following phases of the supply chain: inception, development, distribution, trade financing, retail and use, recycling/aftermarket. 6) Loyalty-Based Microtransactions As businesses start leverage data for highly contextual marketing, companies like loyyal recognize the need for a shared database to manage high volumes of transactions and enable permissioned access and program execution Read more https://www.tractica.com/artificial-intelligence/six-applications-for-blockchain-in-automotive/ |

Blockchain will make cars safer and cheaper.The auto industry is often accused for being a slow mastodon that stubbornly resists the changes the world demands of it. However, here at VLB Tokens ( www.vlb.io), we see how quickly this industry can transform to a decentralized, efficient and transparent ecosystem thanks to only one innovation – the blockchain technology. In fact, the automotive market is going through the unprecedented changes that most of the people do not see yet. Car makers, IT giants, financial groups are already experimenting with disruptive blockchain applications for the auto market that promise to make everyone’s life simpler. The blockchain technology allows creating a single global database that contains information about every car, in a way that no data can be modified without consent of all parties involved. For example, if you get your car repaired at an official repair shop, this information will be available to an insurance company that can give you a cheaper insurance plan, because the official repair shop guarantees the authenticity and reliability of installed spare parts. The information recorded to a blockchain database is always authentic, unchangeable, and up-to-date, which creates trust between all parties and reduces transactions costs as there is no need to verify and manually enter information several times. Generally speaking, the benefits of using blockchain fall in one of three categories: driving safety, revenue growth and cost reduction. Driving safety: Every day, we get in our cars with our families, and we trust that the vehicle is safe to drive. We hope it will not break down and cause an accident, and even in case of an accident it will keep us reasonably safe. Unfortunately, some car manufacturers have a long history of incorporating known defects in their automobiles, defects they work hard to conceal. They may have designed a car with the defect or learned from early testing or in-the-field crash reports that the defect exists, but they will often continue to deny the existence of the defect. They may make payments to victims on condition of silence, quietly recalling cars for unrelated minor problems. Car manufacturers that deploy blockchain technology will prove that they are fully transparent and open for their customer communities, and their vehicles have no hidden defects. In case a new defect is found, it will be immediately assessed and fixed by independent repair shop or a car manufacturer. The blockchain technology transforms car manufacturing towards an open source software model, which allows everyone to test code and flag vulnerabilities. A subsequent effect on the market will be clear: every perspective car owner would prefer a reliable car tested and proved by a blockchain, not just by a marketing slogan. Revenue growth: Not only car manufacturers and dealers can expect their revenues grow as a result of blockchain deployment. Repair shops and insurance companies can increase their top line by offering personalized and customized solutions to clients. For example, with access to vehicle maintenance history, road incidents and driving-related information, insurance companies can design more efficient insurance plans, and repair shops can offer necessary preventive maintenance, recommended by car manufacturers. Connecting to the VLB infrastructure all market players will get additional clients from CarFix’s customer flow and cross-marketing activities. Cost reduction: Using smart-contracts the VLB platform will automate insurance claim processing, decrease fraudulent claims and the number of car recalls, ensure MSRP (manufacturer’s suggested retail price) adherence by repair shops and dealers. Transaction cost reduction comes as a result of increased trust between all market players, increased reliability of information that should not be manually entered and verified several times, and better inventory management due to availability of data that did not exist before. For example, car manufacturers will have access to real-time data about original spare part demand by region and by specific SKU# and will be able to plan geographic supply chains with greater precision, efficiency and granularity down to specific repair shops. The list of opportunities that each market participant gets from having access to the Vehicle Lifecycle Blockchain is endless. Here are most obvious examples of VLB benefits: · Vehicle manufacturers will get transparency in warranty claim repairs, more granular inventory management, safer and more reliable cars, and fewer vehicle recalls. · Car owners will enjoy improved car safety, lower car maintenance costs, and benefit from a smooth car purchase and maintenance processes. · Insurance companies can get the data to make their policy plans more efficient, decrease the costs of claim management and processing. · Repair shops will get more customers from the ecosystem, and can offer new preventive maintenance services, based on real-time driving data. · Auto dealers will set more fair prices in used car transactions and trade-ins and lower their transaction costs of car purchase and selling. · Auto lenders will benefit from more business opportunities to give loans for costly repairs or predictive maintenance, to provide working capital loans to repair shops. · Distributors and OEMs will get improve warranty claims management by checking the authenticity of installed spare parts and improve their inventory management. · Finally, government regulators will be able to monitor the adherence of vehicles’ technical parameters to regulatory norms Overall, the application of blockchain technology for the auto market will make cars safer and cheaper, and their maintenance will be less time consuming and stressful.

An interesting read on how blockchain reshapes the $1.8 trillion auto market. https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/carfix-reinventing-the-auto-industry_us_5a01fb2fe4b0b422a3c5ccecThe role of the blockchain is something that can be used throughout the entire lifecycle of auto ownership, from purchase to liquidation. When you buy a car, your title, bank loan, and your insurance can all be associated with the blockchain, confirmed and validated. The main idea is that by using blockchain, all the critical elements of a car history are confirmed and traceable: ownership rights, loans, maintenance works, changed parts, etc. |

[ICO] VLB – платформа для отслеживания жизненного цикла автомобилей на базе блокчейн 27.11 – 17.12.2017 Vehicle Lifecycle Blockchain (VLB) – децентрализованный реестр данных о транспортных средствах, истории владения, страхования, ремонте и техническом обслуживании. Работа с реестром ведется при помощи токенов VLB. Последние используются для внесения записей о транспортных средствах в блокчейн и финансирования работы PoS узлов, осуществляющих поддержку платформы. Для внесения записей в Vehicle Lifecycle Blockchain все участники рынка должны будут заплатить VLB. Когда количества данных достаточно для формирования нового блока, токены по транзакциям в нем перечисляются узлу, осуществившему проверку данного блока. Следовательно, чем сложнее сделка, чем больше в ней участников, тем выше комиссионный сбор. Изначально Vehicle Lifecycle Blockchain будет базироваться на сети CarFix, с которой работают страховые компании, дистрибьюторы запасных частей, ремонтные мастерские и компании по управлению автомобильными парками. Ключевое преимущество платформы заключается в ее полной децентрализации, достоверности данных, и с дальнейшим расширением за пределы экосистемы CarFix. Токен VLB может получить мировое распространение, благодаря активному использованию многими узлами (нодами). Производители автомобилей и OEM-производители будут выступать в качестве глобальных супер нодов, а страховые компании станут национальными супер нодами. Полагаясь на успешный опыт в экосистеме CarFix, они сформируют новую обширную базу данных на основе токенов VLB, которые сами же будут получать через алгоритм PoS. Участниками системы Vehicle Lifecycle Blockchain выступят: • владельцы автомобилей; • корпоративные компании по управлению автопарками; • авторемонтные мастерские; • производители запчастей; • дистрибьюторы запчастей; • производители и дистрибьюторы транспортных средств; • страховые компании; • кредитные организации и государственные учреждения. С помощью платформы можно будет получать весь комплекс данных о том или ином автомобиле. К примеру, эта информация будет важна для потенциальных покупателей, ремонтных мастерских, страховых агентств и других участников рынка. Система исключает ряд рисков при покупке и совершении других операций с транспортным средством. В рамках платформы будет работать инструмент InstaCar, предназначенный для упрощения взаимодействия между владельцами автомобилей и ремонтными мастерскими. Программное обеспечение будет моментально устанавливать фиксированную справедливую стоимость для тех или иных ремонтных работ. Автовладельцы смогут подписываться на услуги сервисных центров и заказывать доставку необходимых запчастей. Ремонтные мастерские и поставщики запчастей смогут взаимодействовать через сервис InstaFix, что позволит эффективно управлять мощностями автосервисов и оптимизировать их расходы. Токен VLB VLB – это токен, базирующийся на протоколе ERC20 сети Ethereum. Токены VLB будут использоваться страховыми компаниями, организациями автокредитования, автодилерами, сервисными центрами, OEM-производителями и покупателями автомобилей для записи информации в блокчейн платформы и получения доступа к ней. Будет выпущено 250 миллионов токенов VLB, из которых 200 миллионов выделяется для публичной продажи в ходе ICO. Последующих дополнительных выпусков не будет. Все токены VLB, не проданные на протяжении ICO, будут уничтожены. 20 миллионов токенов предназначено для закрытой продажи в рамках Pre-ICO. 20 миллионов VLB будут обслуживаться CarFix для упрощения развертывания блокчейна. Еще 10 миллионов токенов выделяется для консультантов проекта и на BOUNTY кампанию. Подробности ICO ICO проекта будет проходить с 27 ноября по 17 декабря 2017 года. Базовый курс токена составит 650 VLB за 1 ETH. При этом инвесторам будут предоставляться бонусные токены в зависимости от даты приобретения: • 1-е 5 дней - 30%. • 2-е 5 дней – 20%. • 3-е 5 дней – 10%. • Последние 5 дней – без бонуса. Максимальная сумма сборов, на которую ориентируются основатели проекта, составляет 300 000 ETH. К оплате, в ходе ICO, будет приниматься только криптовалюта ETH. Привлеченное финансирование распределяется следующим образом: • 75% - разработка и запуск платформы; • 15% - операционные расходы; • 10% - резерв. Контакты и ссылки: • Сайт проекта vlb.io. • WhitePaper.• Twitter.• Telegram.• Reddit.• Facebook.• Github.• Medium. |
