It's all about the cryptocoins
One of the biggest names in the auto industry says no one will own a car in 20 years
Bob Lutz is a former Marine who worked for Ford, General Motors, Chrysler, and BMW, usually as the resident "car guy", says that the auto industry is on an accelerating change curve.
"For hundreds of years, the horse was the prime mover of humans and for the past 120 years it has been the automobile," he said. "Now we are approaching the end of the line for the automobile because travel will be in standardized modules. The end state will be the fully autonomous module with no capability for the driver to exercise command."
IT solutions based on blockchain platforms like VLB Tokens (www.vlb.io) will help automate car maintenance, insurance claim processing, and after market spare parts management.

Thanx I had a look at the article, very interesting: The end of the automobile could arrive in 20 years. How could VLB profit from this?
Well, this was the last part of Almir's quote
"IT solutions based on blockchain platforms like VLB Tokens (www.vlb.io) will help automate car maintenance, insurance claim processing, and after market spare parts management. "
I think this does answer your question no?

Very nice article about VLB in Forbes, it’s so nice for the visibility of the project. The more visibility the project has and the more investors would come, and with that kind of review and with some events, the hype around VLB will be incredible.

@trrrt, do you have an url link?
Nice article and it's good to read that, here's the link for you mate https://www.forbes.com/sites/montymunford/2017/11/16/carfix-drives-auto-repair-prices-down-with-ethereum-blockchain/

Forbes is one of the most prestigious websites.

It is a very good publication to be on it. Also a very good article.

Any publicity is good for the project especially if its from well known source as Forbes. Community is starting to realize the potential value of VLB which is always good for investors and devs.

Well this sentence says it all imo. There is still huge room for improvement in streamlining the approach to relationships in the auto sales, auto repair, auto insurance and auto finance industries.

Have you planned to hold an AMA session with the user/Investor Community in the near future?

What is an AMA session?

I assume it involves communication with the user/investors? I am a big fan of frequent communication between an ICO and its users/investors

AMA stands for “Ask Me Anything,” which is basically just a trendy internet term used to describe an interview that occurs between one user who hosts it and all the other users who want to ask questions.

Thank you. All these abbreviations is difficult for a non native English speaker.

Is there any AMA session planned by VLB?

So its even better than an AMA, is an ever lasting AMA. Ill make sure to pop in and ask you something in there as it's a bit faster than in here

According to the whitepaper, the biggest cost savings comes from warranty costs due to poor dealer / repair shop management and processes. It refers to this web page:

http://www.warrantyweek.com/archive/ww20160107.html

That is quite a puzzling article, at least for me as an outsider of the automotive warranty industry. How does it explain customers are overpaying for warranty due to poor dealer / repair shop management and processes?

I don't understand it too, however it's true that there's no trasparency about the spare parts market, as far as we know a repair shop can put in your car second handed spare parts and you can do nothing about it
This is our blockchain about, you will definitely know that the part installed in your car wasn't in use. If it was it will be written in the blockchain.

oh... 100 ETH its to much for most of investors..
On main sale you also will have bonuses?
ICO (minimum investment 1ETH)
Nov 27 noon UTC - Dec 2 noon UTC: 1ETH = 845VLB (30% bonus)
Dec 2 noon UTC - Dec 7 noon UTC: 1ETH = 780VLB (20% bonus)
Dec 7 noon UTC - Dec 12 noon UTC: 1ETH = 715VLB (10% bonus)
Dec 12 noon UTC - Dec 17 noon UTC: 1ETH = 650VLB (no bonus)

The sale will not last very long, which is good and give me more confidence you are up to something good indeed  Smiley

Ok presale Bonus is 40% and fist day ico Bonus is 30%
thats fair Smiley
Not only the first day, whole 1st period (27 Nov - 02 Dec) has 30% bonus.

Luckily there's that 30%, since i couldn't afford 100eth minimum contribution in presale. I am wondering that are those groups of people who participate in these huge presales, or just some whales?
Yep at current prices this is almost 35 000 dollars but if someone is convinced to buy this tokens this is very good opportunity to do this5
I think the bonus is too big, i guess there will be a dump if the pre-sale is sold out.
Cheesy that is reward for people take the risk. so I think that is normal. but in my idea 20% is better.
