Pimp your ride Peer to Peer Vehicle sharing - Helbiz
Helbiz is a peer to peer marketplace that makes renting a car, motorcycle or bicycle convenient, affordable, instant and rewarding. The rental process will be instantaneous and launching in Q2 2018! No communication is needed, upon confirmation the renters phone is turned into a key to both the car and ignition, and they also offer full insurance keeping both parties secure at all times.
The 1.2 Billion cars in the world are on average only being used 4% of the time. Helbiz is creating a seamless way of renting out your private parked car, bike or motorcycle to your peers without having to deal with communication or keys.
The key (pun intended) is there is no key, you can manage your vehicle and rental using your smartphone. You get rewarded not only for renting out your vehicle, but also for sharing driving data you are already creating on a day to day basis. Helbiz is the seamless blockchain child of AirBnB, Hertz and Uber. Blockchain technology authorises the registration of all services provided through the platform and validates transactions between owners, operators, and external services automatically through a single payment system.
Vehicle owners and their customers will verify their identities on the blockchain. Terms and conditions, such as fare and duration of rental, and purchase of an insurance policy covering the trip will be recorded on an immutable contract on the blockchain. Payment and fees will also be handled by you guessed it, the blockchain. You are probably wondering will all this data sharing make stealing your identity, vehicle or payments easy?
Excerpts Taken from the Whitepaper
By using Blockchain to map virtual identities, you can create a trusted community of users. Smart contracts add an additional layer of privacy by tokenizing recorded data and personal information. This personal information could be encrypted and viewable only by parties that have either the legal right to do so or are participating in the transactions. The system can also provide connectivity to vehicle functions for remote lock / unlock doors and engine start / stop.

I like your work @cryptofunk
Great information from this blog I recently followed. Thanks @cryptofunk fr sharing
The key determinant of how successful a businessman will be is his capacity for risk... I'm sure many people wouldn't have taken steemit serious when it started, but now its becoming more and more popular. . . I might consider investing early and not come in late like i did for steemit
Excellent information my friend, many thanks
I like the sound of this but am a bit baffled as to how it can unlock lock the doors etc. My car, a nissan takes three hours to get a key recoded to it if you lose it. Sadly I know this because it happened to me!
Didn't see the specifics of how it will be done in the Whitepaper, but my guess is that it will need some kind of device fitting into it, or only cars that already have remote app overrides pre built, will allow it.
Ah a device would make sense!
Sounds good!
Cryptoworld is moving fast and giving solutions and aplications for the real life.
