Sorry if this has already been asked or mentioned and I missed it. But will the platform only accept RMC or will other crypto currencies be available for use?

Erm, seriously would you feel comfortable sitting in somebody's car who you don't know the name of? Sure you have his reg, but even then how would you know it's not some crook who stole the car and is about to kidnap you?

That's where all the fun is though..

Err no thanks, I'd rather have them do some id checks n what not before I use it. I know crypto is all about being free and anonymous but that doesn't work here.

Would you trust your wife to use this knowing absolutely anybody could be behind the wheel?


sure Wink

I'm not so interested in another Uber honestly. But for the sake of discussion, I would say that another model might work in regular bookings of trips.

Think about it, when someone needs to make the same journey regularly, they would normally take public transport, or drive their own car.  Now you can find someone who takes the same journey and book them regularly.

Yeah OP seens to be taking another route with some sustainable ideas. Hopefully will be able to build rapport with other commuters. Maybe a social platform or forum would be cool??

social platform and community participation will be the key to this project. Trusted rating system to ensure safe travel

I think feedback is key here. Perhaps some sort of mechanism to track feedback is needed? It would be pretty cool to be able to do this via a wallet!

Here, having attestation on the chain would be very useful. Making things like rating / identity immutable on the chain will help a great deal.

Now we're talking.

How about going back to the idea someone else mentioned about a rental market for cars. Smart property, QR Codes to unlock etc.  That would be awesome.

I wouldn't be comfortable having to do any form of KYC verification honestly, but I can see how this might be a necessity. Accountability is something really hard to tackle, as is anonymity, which go hand in hand. I've seen these car rental services called 'DriveNow', usually its a BMW i3 parked up and i assume you can use an app to unlock it. I think it's a service made by BMW, not tried it myself but it's definitely interesting seeing all these connected services now.

in the US they have Zip Car. You use app to reserve car, then you can find one on the street near you and use your app to unlock.

I would say success depends on a lot of things but hard work is the one constant across all the other important attributes.

Just because you don't make a lot of money at the end of the day shouldn't put you off from achieving your goals.
