Announcing MOBI’s First Standard: Vehicle Identity
|
|
|
MOBI is proud to announce the official release of the first blockchain standard coming from the Vehicle Identity (VID) Working Group. Thank you to the entire VID team for your hard work over the past year and congratulations on achieving this milestone. Accompanying this technical document, the working group has produced a business review document that outlines the importance of DLT- enabled vehicle identity. This analysis reviews the non-exhaustive set of use cases that are dependent on the foundation of identity in the mobility ecosystem and goes into most detail on the near term applications.
If you have any questions regarding the VID Standard, reach out to Lucy Hakobyan, MOBI's Head of Program, at lucy@dlt.mobi.
