New mobility is estimated by some analysts to become a billion-dollar business by 2025. Data generated by the way we use means of transportation informs so much about the services and facilities that are more useful for us, and companies are very interested in owning them. This information, in fact, can come in handy for insurance, transportation, but also for advertising aims: being able to know where traffic is higher or where people spend most of their time is a great asset for companies who want to know, for example, where a billboard could be seen by as many people as possible.

This not only unlocks opportunities for businesses, such as data monetization and utilization, but also for individuals, who can be rewarded for their contributions to the mobility ecosystem. Blockchain can impact the future of mobility in many ways: companies and users can access and manage a trustworthy decentralized data collector system, having the chance to access, as a reward, to a tokenized marketplace where a community carries out maintenance and movement tasks and enabling consumers to access shared vehicles using a verified digital identity.

These companies have accepted the Blockchain challenge: read about how they aim to change the world of mobility.

ABE TOKEN

Abe Token Project is a transport and mobility cryptocurrency that aims to create a large reward ecosystem for the transport industry and generate value between people and those that benefit from their data or contributions. In a world of connected vehicles and trains, information-sharing infrastructure, traffic lights, and IoT enabled smart cities, data can be considered a real value that can be monetized. However, since data is generated by many platforms that use different information collecting regulations, people can’t really trust where their data is kept and how it will be used: with the ABE Platform people can control access to the data they share, and receive rewards of that data in return in the form of ABE Tokens.

Partners inside the ecosystem can define smart contracts to set conditions of use and the level of reward they are willing to offer to data owners, while owners have the total control to cancel the contracts, change and revoke permissions. Applications of ABE platform in real life includes a smartphone app which enables to track mobility performances: imagine being rewarded for walking, running or driving and being able to use these ABE token rewards to pay fuel, train journeys or bus rides. The future seems quite bright with ABE, doesn’t it?

CYCLEAN

CyClean is a project that combines mobility with clean energy: it promotes, in fact, clean energy through a rental system of electric vehicles based on blockchain technology and smart contracts to encourage people to use electric vehicles.

Users will be able to rent CyClean products that include not only bikes (in-door bikes, electric bicycles), but also electric motorbikes, electric cars and receive as an emission reward (which is a sort of mining) for using such products based on Meter travelled, or Watts produced. This is a reward for replacing exhaust fumes and previous ways of energy production. Of course, the weight of CyClean vehicles will vary: CyClean cars will mine more green emission compared to CyClean indoor bikes. This kind of mobility approach motivates a larger group of citizens to combat environmental problems, but also promote long term usages that will have real effect.

AMO

AMO is a blockchain infrastructure where car data can be shared and exchanged among car users, manufacturers, and relevant service providers. This means that data will no longer be under the centralized control of specific companies: they will become public assets that will enable the mobility market.

Participants in the AMO Market are all stakeholders within the automobile industry which can be car users, automobile manufacturers, or automotive service providers. Working simultaneously as data producers and consumers in a cycle of value sharing and creation. A technology-enabled economic system, AMO Market is built on the AMO Blockchain and supports the fair valuation of data and distribution of rewards. Accounting for adjustments in supply and demand, payouts and purchases are made with AMO Coin.
