Naviaddress is a new blockchain project that is entirely different from most projects that daily spring up on the blockchian. It is a unique project that pertains to digital identification for people, objects, and businesses around the world.
To be precise, Naviaddress is a unified addressing system where people from around the globe will be able to create addresses for themselves and their businesses. In a few words, this is a project that is set to revolutionize the present addressing systems globally.
But why this project? One might ask. Why Naviaddress?
Well, we all know the essence of addresses, be it home, office, or even email addresses. Addresses are indispensable in our present world. They define locations/destinations for persons, businesses, transactions, etc. In other words, addresses enhance access to locations that would hitherto be impossible to access.
However, despite the fact that postal services came with modernization to ease the difficulties associated with local delivery, it has been proven to be not totally effective.
Reason?
A common problem we face especially in developing nations is that most people are without valid home and business addresses. As a result, ordering goods especially online is really difficult as the courier agents would find it difficult delivering the goods ordered. Inevitably, this often lead to frustration for both parties.
On another lane, the current postal systems pose problems in the sense that the postal codes used are not uniform with respect to formats, mapping algorithms, insufficient data, and also differences in language which might pose a barrier to foreigners.
Additionaly, the fact that a large number of the delivery addresses are not verified to ensure their validity often lead to last minute problems of delivery which could otherwise be averted had the precaution been taken.
All these are loopholes that have continually led to many attempts being made overtime to draw up a comprehensive module tha would efficientl solve the problems with addressing systems/identification – albeit without much success.
Naviaddress emerges as one of those attempts to fix this global issue by utilizing the blockchain trend in its addressing system. I must say the case is bound to be entirely different with this project. It has good prospects given the fantastic ideas in its whitepaper.
So why is the Naviaddress system peculiar?
Well, it is more than the obvious fact that it is set up on the blockchain which is the prevailing technology trend. Naviaddress is an initiative that seeks to redress the challenges with the present addressing systems by building a decentralized and unified system of address for both virtual and real world. It offers postal and delivery addresses to its users across the world at an absolute zero cost.
This entails that anyone willing can log on the platform any time and set up his/her own delivery address. These addresses would be in the form of smart contracts and would be duly authenticated by the system.
Naviaddress is a digital address system for person and objects, entities, etc both in virtual and real world such as hotels, restaurants delivery agencies, taxis, governments, cities, e-commerce agencies, real estate, vehicles, advertisement agents/agencies, etc
The Naviaddress initiative began since the year 2015. Though it is yet to be fully launched, its key features include internet search, create, find, and share addresses. Categories of addresses in the system would include personal, business, etc. In creating their addreses, users would have the liberty of including descriptions to their addresses such as landmarks, etc for easy identification.
With these, anyone from any part of the world would have easy access to and information of locations anywhere. In other words, the system will not only be built for postal addresses, but will also have geographical coordinates, and fashioned to reflect the cultural peculiarities and histories of places
Why you should use the naviaddress?
Well, here are some valid reasons:
The Naviaddress sytem is unique with respect to the following properties it has which include
- The ability of individuals, (not only governments) to create addresses for themselves
- Simple, and standard format for addresses.
- It will reflect geopositions and digital descriptions of places.
- The addresses will be flexible, can be used for international transactions and delivery (both online and in real time)
- It will be unified and easy to access and reference.
- It is simple and secure.
- It has a broader coverage, being a global system which makes it a go-to place especially for busineses
- Empowers individuals to create, own, and control their addresses.
So in a nutshell, the Naviaddress system has great advantage and potentials over the present addressing system.It is very flexible and convenient in the sense that you can use same address whenever you relocate from a particular place. The only thing you’d probably need change would be the part of the code that indicates your actual place, whereas the rest would remain constant.
More importantly, this system would empower individuals without official (government-assigned) addresses with the right to create one for themselves and their businesses.
What a privilege!
The Naviaddress platform is built on the ethereum blockchain which means its token is erc-20 compatible. The token sale for this project just recently came to an end. Funds were raised during the period to set up this awesome platform among other things. Hopefully, you would be able to lay hold of them in some exchanges soon. You know of course this is a way of offering your support for this great project. A total of NAVI tokens issued are 1bn out of which 400m were allocated for sale.
