VINchain is a blockchain-based database that records all information about vehicles. The platform aims to create a decentralized marketplace dedicated to car transfers and a database storage ecosystem for a complete vehicle history by keeping a record of the information relating to each vehicle. Consequently, drivers and dealers can trade, manage their vehicle information, and create an infrastructure that provides direct access to the database.
According to its whitepaper, the second-hand car industry faces major problems like bank insurance fraud, leasing company fraud, asymmetric information, no centralized update for registered cars, uncertain quality, etc. Thus, VINchain offers a solution to asymmetric information and other problems by creating a repository of the decentralized, immutable, transparent, secure, and reliable vehicle life cycle.
In addition, the team intends to offer solutions in three different forms:
The VINchain Data Marketplace aims to benefit the entire automotive industry by keeping data standards accepted by all in the automotive industry, providing trustworthy, quick, and comfortable data supply, a collective trading process for traders, and stipulating monetizing data tools. In fact, VINchain Data Marketplace is a guiding platform for the data-connected ecosystem that hosts data exchange.
VIN is the utility token used for performing the transaction on the VINchain dApp. VIN tokens serve as a real currency for tools like vehicle history, reports, live driver data tracking, in-app transactions, big data analytics, exploring VINchain BlockExplorer, etc., on the VINchain ecosystem. Besides, the platform compensates all data providers with a VIN token whenever their data is used for dealerships and customers.
