On Wednesday at the Texan Gaylord Resort and Convention Center, following MarketWaves18, members of the Blockchain in Transport Alliance (BiTA) met to receive updates on the organization’s progress toward data standards, hear announcements, share feedback, and learn about the work being done by BiTA’s think thanks.
The first round of technology demonstrations at Transparency18 shared a common theme of integrated disparate systems, data formats, and devices. It’s clear that the action in freight tech has shifted to aggregating and analyzing data, not simply generating it.
Learning Machine has developed an application for issuing and verifying official records using the blockchain as a secure encrypt of trust, which could help reduce driver identity fraud and loss of freight to theft.
With blockchain-based credentials, or Blockcerts (an open source standard developed by Learning Machine and the MIT Media Lab), risk management can now extend to the driver level.
Learning Machine Technologies, a leading global provider of blockchain-based records for institutions including MIT and the Republic of Malta, has joined the Blockchain in Transport Alliance (BiTA).
