The field of transportation from the beginning of time has never been one that is known for stagnation. In our modern era, Taxis for over a century have been the go-to mode of transportation that we all choose for our daily commutes. This commute industry grew so big it was worth tens of billions of dollars every year, that it until Uber came to the scene and caused one of the greatest disruptions in history.

The birth of Ridesharing heralded a new beginning for commuting and daily transport in our lives. Now you and I can go from one point to another within our cities or even hitch a ride to another using better vehicles that would have otherwise never been on offer for public transport and at what was supposed to be competitive prices. But sadly, the euphoria that greeted the birth of Uber and the ridesharing industry was a short-lived one. A lot of problems surfaced in the way Uber takes the industry that makes it tens of billions of dollars in revenue since its inception.
In today’s world, the name Uber, as well as other ridesharing platforms, are synonymous with a don’t give a damn attitude of a company to its customers and getting away with it. Controversy after controversy, which at one time saw the ridesharing platform forced to change its CEO has bedeviled the industry. From very low and unfair wages for drivers to terribly lax security measures on customer data, it is safe to say that everyone using Uber and most other ridesharing platforms is doing so out of the lack of better alternatives. Well… not anymore, as Bitdrive is here and it is about to disrupt the disruptor.
The Bitdrive Solution; Blockchain Solution
We all have heard how the blockchain technology is set to change the very way we do things, conduct business, create and distribute value. This is the single biggest human invention in history as it is the one human creation that has proven to be completely sabotage and counterfeit resistant. Bitdrive is a platform that harnesses on the unlimited possibilities provided by the blockchain technology as it seeks to rescue the world from the unhealthy bondage it is in, with Uber and the rest of the present ridesharing industry.
Let’s make a distinction here, Ridesharing is an amazing innovation that has brought untold good to us as a people. Making transportation as easy and as affordable as possible has ramifications beyond what one’s mind can encompass in a hurry. Bitdrive is pro-ridesharing, but ridesharing in its purest form, devoid of the arrogance that the present ridesharing platforms treat both riders and drivers, and ridesharing that is accountable to all that hold a stake in it.
Bitdrive is a platform that is set to use the pervading penetration of the blockchain technology to finally make ridesharing a truly global phenomenon, one that is made accessible to all those that need it. Some of the very key reasons why Bitdrive is set to make Uber obsolete, and unlock the full potential of the ridesharing industry for the good of all include:
- Unfettered Global Access: The blockchain technology has been described as an unstoppable force by the likes of Bill Gates, and for good reason. The present ridesharing industry despite its enormous potential remains a stuff of nightmare for users all over the world. Uber, for example, has been a platform that abruptly withdraws its services from whole cities without prior notice, and with no explanation, putting the livelihood of drivers, and the comfort of riders in those cities in jeopardy. Bitdrive for riders and drivers worldwide will be a breath of fresh air, as it is set to do away with the uncertainty that hangs over the neck of drivers and riders all over the world. With the aid of the blockchain technology, every country and every city will have coverage, and drivers will have the unlimited possibility of working wherever they might be located.
- A Real Deal for Everyone: With the publishing of the recent MIT studies into Uber driver’s income, the open secret that drivers on the platform always get a raw deal was finally given global exposure. Bitdrive like the blockchain technology that powers it is a platform that offers fairness to all stakeholders. By eliminating expensive and opaque practices of Uber, drivers will gain the maximum possible revenue share from their hard work, while riders get a better deal when commuting than they presently have. All transactions are open and transparent on the Bitdrive blockchain, as such no longer do riders have to blindly trust their ridesharing company, as all is made accountable. Ridesharing should be all about the riders and drivers, and Bitdrive is set to make so.
- Safety and Security: Since the beginning of time, there has been no manmade creation except that it is easily sabotaged or corrupted by another man. The blockchain technology is the single human creation that bucks this trend, as it has been proven time and again to be absolutely immune to any sabotage once put into play. Bitdrive is a platform that will use this immutability of the blockchain technology to give customers the absolute assurance that their data will be kept safe from the corrupt hands of hackers. No one will have any access whatsoever to their data except with their express consent. Users don’t have to worry about identity theft or hacking of sensitive credit card details as transactions are carried out using crypto assets.
The days when the world has to contend with bad service and the bad attitude of companies is set to be behind us in a very short time ahead. The blockchain technology has already caused upsets in diverse industries, and with the entry of Bitdrive into the ridesharing industry, freedom, equality, quality service and accountability will be the mantra of the ridesharing industry in the times ahead.
