Are you going my way?

in #brainfeed5 years ago

Hitch hiking in the 21st century may be about to take a new turn of events.

The old fashioned and heavily regulated industry known as 'taxis' took a huge blow when Uber came on the scene.

The ability to call on someone in the area to give you a ride in their own car seemed like a boom industry.
However the costs of running a vehicle plus the huge overheads to run a centralised booking system out weigh the benefits for many drivers.

Now it seems that a decentralised model, based on blockchain may now be upon us.

Block chains are making in roads into many industries and P2P ride sharing is just the latest.

"GoingMyWay" could be a boon for those willing to provide a car service for others.
Passengers will still need to consider 'stranger danger' but a 5-star rating system based on passenger reviews may help passengers to choose their ride options.

Like all new concepts, there will probably be teething problems, but the big winner is decentralisation, and blockchains along with cryptos.

Time will tell
