RE: What Tesla Robotaxi Day Can Teach Leo
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
I watched the Tesla thing Live last night on X. I thought it was pretty cool.
The thing that got me thinking was when Elon said people could be a "Shepherd" and buy a "flock" of these robotaxis which could then earn them money from autonomous ride shares as well as renting compute when the cars are idle.
Could someone go on hive-engine (or VSC?) and make a ROBOTAXI token, then buy robotaxis with the proceeds and give a dividend and/or do a token buyback with the car's earnings? The taxi could take HBD as ride payments. Might be good publicity for Hive if nothing else.

I haven't thought it through much. Might have obvious flaws.
But that's where I am now in my thought process on this.
Probably won't work with hive-engine due to no smart contracts, but VSC will have them. But might take a while for them to actually roll out on VSC?
It IS possible to make custom smart contracts on hive-engine.
This is on their FAQ:
Can I publish my own smart contract to the Hive Engine sidechain?
We are currently not allowing arbitrary smart contracts to be published to the sidechain, as you can do on platforms like Ethereum or EOS. Our goal is to be able to allow this at some point in the future, but for now if you are interested in deploying a custom smart contract please contact us on Discord and we can work with you on that.

That's all I got now. Feedback please? Trash it if it's a bad idea. :)
It was cool I agree. To me, the message was much bigger than people think.
As for your idea, I stated it for years. It is a completely possible process. Do not worry about HE, the token can be created on VSC. The vehicle wont be ready for 2-3 years.
The idea is valid except the the HBD aspect. Payments are dictated by Tesla. However, the payouts of the token share could be HBD. What you are starting is the future. Tokenization of new ideas, people get involved, and, if they work, it could expand out.
To take your idea further, there could be a token for each taxi (or group). You could have one in Houston.Tx for example, and then have another token relating to a taxi in Los Angeles.
