Every investment has its own risks. People have made money and people have lost money. Whatever experience you get with any investment, you need to remember that people have experienced that before and have moved on. With investments, the goal is to keep on moving on whether times are good or bad. However, before any investment, studying the product or service you are going to invest in is important. Reviews and videos only show the opinions of others but what is your opinion, what is that one feature that would make you invest in a certain product? This analysis will focus on the decentralized autonomous vehicle platform which is based on blockchain.

DAV focuses on transport services performed by autonomous vehicles. Autonomous vehicles are the future of transportation and therefore investing in DAV may be a profitable venture. However, pros and cons have to be weighed out to determine whether it is worth the investment or not. Here’s a SWOT analysis of the DAV platform.

Addressing real world transport challenges. DAV takes on the transport industry addressing some of the major challenges that it faces. Delays caused by traffic jams can be solved through the DAV platform which seeks to help the autonomous vehicle industry grow.

Harmonizing the autonomous vehicle industry. DAV’s platform seeks to bring all these industry players together. They all have different projects that are great individually but can work better when combined. Bringing these players together will put DAV’s platform above other platforms that may want to offer autonomous transport services. Industry players will prefer a central source of getting all their services in a decentralized manner. DAV allows the peer-to-peer connections to take place through their platform. All services that autonomous vehicles may require will be made available in the platform. From charging to parking, these options will be available to those who need it.

Maintaining anonymity. Users in the platform will be able to request for services while still maintaining their anonymity. DAV will give each registered member a DAV identity that will keep things anonymous in the platform.

A favorable token system. DAV will host different service provider in their platform. Each of these providers will have a chance of gaining tokens from the use of the platform and from others using their services. Those providing their vehicles will earn DAV tokens from those hiring these vehicles. Maintenance services also provided by those registered in DAV will also earn from the services they provide. Basically, every service provider will gain tokens eventually.

Meeting future passenger demands. The DAV platform has taken a favorable position in terms of meeting passenger demands that are likely to rise in the future. By offering a platform with an easy user interface that hosts affordable transport services with a decent amount of comfort, DAV is likely to be popular with passengers. Online businesses may also find the DAV platform a necessary application for their business as DAV will also host drone delivery service providers in their platform.

Cost reductions. Transport takes up a huge chunk of the money we make. DAV will have different service providers offering affordable transport alternatives using autonomous vehicles. People stand to save a lot from these services. Owning a car won’t be a priority if a seamless transport application such as DAV exists, thereby helping more people to use this costs saved be able to diversify their investments..

Blockchain. Without blockchain, DAV would not be able to provide its services in a decentralized manner. Decentralization is a key feature of DAV.

✅ Relying on tech that is still under development. DAV’s platform rests on the development of autonomous vehicles, if they don’t reach fruition, then the platform could easily be destabilized. They seem not to have a plan B.

Emerging use cases. As more research and development occurs in the autonomous vehicle industry, more use cases are likely to pop up. Think of drones for example, they are popular with photography and epic videography; however, they can be tailor-made for other services such as delivery. More use cases are likely to come up in the near future and DAV will have the opportunity to offer these new services to their clients first.

Shaping legislation on autonomous vehicles. Hosting such a team of autonomous vehicles services providers will help DAV understand their needs. As it grows, DAV may be influential enough to promote laws that will favor the growth of this industry. Such moves may even lead to its own growth as it attracts more autonomous vehicle companies.

Growing other industries. The insurance industry and other related industries to autonomous cars such as car manufacturers can benefit greatly from the DAV platform. DAV has the chance to propagate the success of these industries by providing a platform that increase the need for the products they produce.

Skepticism by the public. People are still not used to the idea that cars can drive themselves. These trust issues can mess up the whole DAV system as it relies on people to make requests for autonomous vehicles.

Slow acceptance of the platform. It may take a while before people become comfortable with the technology hosted on the DAV platform. Before it goes mainstream, DAV may go through a hard time.

Slow development of autonomous vehicle technology. If delays continue being experienced in autonomous vehicle development, DAV may risk going a few years without profit as they wait for the technology to be available.

Conclusion

DAV is thinking into the future and its platform shows how it plans to revolutionize the transport industry. For DAV to be profitable, a lot of factors have to be considered.

The weaknesses and threats that you pointed out are what provide the opportunities for this one. If they can get in now before this industry is fully established they'll have a solid head start on the competition.
