Volkswagen & IOTA, practically speaking?
Volkswagen & IOTA teaming up for future stuff, is big news i guess. But where's it all headed?
"Feeless micropayments, electric vehicle charging, parking, & more"
With crypto prices fluctuating so much, i really cant see IOTA being used for charging a vehicle.
I can see coin meters being replaced with digital crypto-meters, my car would automatically pay for the time.
Buses, Trains, Uber (Public Transport)... theoretically installing an IOTA wallet on my smartwatch & auto deduct when i exit.
My car paying for gas automatically.
Car running low on gas, pull up to the pump, refill and go... but with crypto being so volatile i dont see this happening. Same for Telsa-like charging.
Idk, what do you think IOT will do in the future?

IOTA could be a good thing, but many of us got burned setting up our IOTA wallets. Directed to an .io site, our seeds were hacked and many of us lost all our IOTA. Ironically, I moved mine from an exchange because I thought it was sketchy.
:( rough
i had some iota on an exchange as well, didnt like the "wallet" interface. Still on the sidelines with iota.
