Peer-to-Peer Carpooling/Ride-Sharing
Why Choose This Project?
Traditional carpooling and ride-sharing apps rely on centralized systems, controlling pricing, ride matching, and user data. This blockchain-based P2P carpooling platform allows direct connections between riders and drivers, ensuring transparent pricing, immutable ride records, and fair payments without intermediaries. It promotes cost-sharing, trust, and decentralization in everyday commuting.
