🔗 🚗100 Teslas available for car sharing on the streets of Vienna were tokenized. The co-founder of the company told Cointelegraph they call it “car sharing 2.0 because the community who owns the cars also rents it out.”
A Vienna-based car-sharing service company has outfitted nearly half of its 200+ fleet of cars with blockchain-based self-sovereign IDs for tokenization purposes.
Cointelegraph spoke with the co-founders of Eloop, Nico Prugger, and peaq, Leonard Dorloechter, in Vienna about decentralized car sharing, mass adoption of Web3 and the future of blockchain-based high-value assets.Prugger explained to Cointelegraph that as soon as a user owns a token, they own a fraction of the entire carsharing fleet, depending on how much they’ve invested into the token.
“For Web3 to go mainstream we need a connection between the digital and real worlds, which enable people to co-own assets that generate revenue based on actual services and goods.” He said, “This is possible because we outsource security to Polkadot. It brings a lot of product value.”Both Prugger and Dorloechter commented that carsharing is just the beginning, and many companies are interested in things such as decentralized electric vehicle charging, decentralized Uber and a decentralized camera network.
