https://www.blockchainresearchinstitute.org/project/the-innovation-dilemma-of-distributed-ledger-technology/
Feb 17, 2022 - The value of blockchain innovation comes from outward-looking strategies that benefit from broad collaboration across an ecosystem, especially around standards. But the legacy systems and processes of the automotive industry tend to favor incremental change over bold transformation. Without reliable estimates of eventual returns, many automakers have hesitated to invest in open experimentation. This new paper provides a framework for understanding the potential of distributed ledger technologies in mobility and transportation. It presents two dozen of most important blockchain use cases for automotive in three categories—enterprise operatio...
