" There is no central administrator who approves transactions, no intermediary connects participants to the network (for example, a charging station to with a vehicle), "said John Frazer, communications manager of DAV in an e-mail. & nbsp; " Instead, it is vehicles that communicate with charging stations or other infrastructure providers. Or, if several companies have their own fleets of vehicles going on board, they can use the infrastructure on the network without interfering with each other, which is beneficial for vehicle suppliers, as they no longer need to develop their own infrastructure. for the fleet but can rather join the network and use the services already existing within the network. "
The secret sauce of the non-profit efforts based in Switzerland is creating the DAV network using the blockchain technology of Wikipedia in transactions where instead of a series of transactions all maintained and managed by a single financial institution, the participants in these transactions maintain their own records, communicating directly with each other.The Blockchain first entered awareness as a platform for Bitcoin cryptocurrency. & nbsp; DAV's encrypted currency of the kingdom is called DAV Token
In July the DAV Foundation took a big step forward Non-profit Consortium Mobility Open Blockchain Initiative ( MOBI) which already has among its members car manufacturers such as General Motors, Ford Motor Co., BMW and Groupe Renault along with major suppliers that include Bosch and Den I know. & nbsp;
In a joint statement Tal Ater, CTO and co-founder of the DAV Foundation said: "Decentralization is the key to the future of transport globally, MOBI has a fantastic network covering a range of skills that will make This is a reality. "
Chris Ballinger, CEO of MOBI, commented:" Our approach is open and inclusive and we welcome stakeholders from across the mobility value chain to help build our network. " rapid and scalable adoption of technologies by companies in autonomous space and mobility and partnership with the DAV Foundation will help guide this. "
Australian Shipping and Logistics Company, Slipstream Advantage & nbsp; & nbsp; He joined the DAV Network in June.
In addition to carrying out an aggressive attack in promoting trade within the AV industry, John Frazer of DAV admits that the strategy also includes a good deal of defense, saying: "The implementation of a decentralized network It's a critical step to make sure that Tesla, Uber, or any other single entity does not control the growing transport Internet – the industry is already getting too big for such an old-fashioned vertical integration model to have much hope for success, but to expand further faster, a decentralized network is needed to encourage small businesses and developers to integrate their solutions into a larger one. "
As expected, there is some degree of skepticism about the blockchain. Writing for the Project Syndicate website, Nouriel Roubini, a professor at the NYU Stern School of Business and CEO of Roubini Macro Associates, & nbsp; Senior economist for international affairs at the Council of Economic Consultants of the White House during the Clinton administration, and Preston Byrne, a member of the Adam Smith Institute and sole shareholder of Tomram Consulting, clashed with everyone the hosanna that the blockchain has enjoyed. The two economists write: "In reality, blockchain is one of the most overhyped technologies of all time To begin with, blockchains are less efficient than existing databases, when someone says they are doing something ; "on a blockchain" what it usually means is that they are executing an instance of a software application that is replicated on many other devices. "
But the DAV team firmly believes that the their blockchain model offers the simplified B2B type and peer-to-peer trade mechanism that will reduce costly duplication of effort, transactions slowed by third parties and allow entry of smaller and less capitalized companies into the growing industry autonomous car.

The secret sauce of Switzerland – non-profit efforts based on the creation of the DAV network using blockchain technology. Think of the blockchain as a sort of Wikipedia of transactions in which, instead of a series of transactions all maintained and managed by a single financial institution, the participants in these transactions keep their records, communicating directly with each other. The Blockchain entered for the first time in awareness as a Bitcoin cryptocurrency platform. The cryptographic coin of DAV of the kingdom is called DAV Token.
