Introducing Machine NFTs
We touched on Machine NFTs when we unveiled the peaq network earlier this month. A Machine NFT is a non-fungible (unique) contract of ownership of a machine that anyone can independently verify.
Web3 and Why It Matters
Web3 has many aspects to it, but at its core is the return to decentralization as in Web1, the maintaining of the high functionality of Web2, and the addition of web-native value transaction and ownership.
Why Machines Need Self-Sovereign Identities
Giving machines Self-Sovereign Identities (SSIs) allows machines, vehicles and devices to move, trade and interact with minimal friction in terms of time, security risk and costs.
Use Case: Decentralized Charging
The Decentralized Charging solution uses blockchain to solve e-mobility’s biggest bottleneck - range anxiety - by giving electric vehicles decentralized identity, access and payment abilities.
What is Self-Sovereign Identity and how does it work?
The main principle behind SSIs is that identity information and associated data should be more easily accessible, secure and private in the digital world as it is in the physical world.
What is the Economy of Things?
If the Internet of Things refers to things becoming contextually aware and connected, then the Economy of Things refers to those devices now being able to autonomously monetise and trade the value they create.
