During Bitcoin Wednesday on 3 April 2019, CEO of VMC, Jochem Verheul, will talk about the impact that blockchain tech could have in human mobility. He will also give a demo of his blockchain-based payment solution for the public transportation industry. If all goes according to plan, we may soon be paying for our bus rides with a stable token.
In the future, he writes, “Smart cities and countries will use a Smart City Mobility Operating System that connects all stakeholders in the mobility economy, from insurance companies to micro mobility services, public transport and energy providers. VMC is building this operating system, and the first release is operational.”
