About DriveDeal
The blockchain is a distributed ledger technology that underlies cryptocurrencies like bitcoin and platforms like Ethereum. It provides a way to record and transfer data that is transparent, safe, auditable, and resistant to outages. This technology has the ability to make the organizations that use it transparent, democratic, decentralized, efficient, and secure. It will likely to disrupt many industries in the coming 5 to 10 years.
From dispute resolution to administrative efficiency and order tracking, blockchain has the answer to the the problems that have been plaguing the transportation industry for decades. The blockchain can be used to create decentralized versions of peer-to-peer ridesharing apps, allowing both car owners and users to arrange terms and conditions in a secure way without third party providers.
DriveDeal will be the first platform for these interactions and will provide the required infrastructure and technology to enable decentralized peer2peer sharing. Every application built on top of DriveDeal will combine all possible mobility sharing use cases and make the market supply be decided by the customers. Participants will be able to provide cars for sharing, rent vehicles from others, develop applications or offer mobility-related services for everyone in the community. This not only will help to utilize unused resources, but also will make transportation more efficient and less expensive.
By incorporating car sharing, ride sharing and logistic dApps on top of the platform immediate utility will be created, and any implementation of these use cases will be decentralized and open-source. In that way, everyone can request mobility on demand and participants of the community are invited to provide suitable solutions to satisfy these needs.
DriveDeal is arranging first collaboration agreements with leading research institutes, universities, manufacturers, rental firms and car dealerships to catalyse the buildup of the platform and ensure first aligned applications. This will help to engage the community from the start and increase the value of the ecosystem as outlined in the following chapter.
Blockchain Smart contracts are responsible for intermediating all interactions between peers in the network. One crucial smart contract will be the token smart contract. It will connect elements on the platform and also regulate incentives and governance of the network.

- Monetary Function: Store of Value, Consistent Medium of Exchange, Unit of Account
