Sharing Economy (Sharing Economy) is a nascent business, using the Internet to match up customers and service providers, and trade in the real world, such as apartment rent short car ride and services.
Someone shared economy as a new business model, it was also seen as a social movement. This both commercial and career patterns are not uncommon in the digital world. The Internet is to make human lives better, not just brought more richer content and tools, but also reshape society radically - If you do not let people now return to the era of the Internet and mobile phones, will feeling can not imagine. Because people's habits have been very different and original.
Share economy starting in a lot of good ideas, take a ride in private between friends, borrow a tool, take care of each other between neighbors. Then expand the scale through the power of the Internet, they can rely on each other between people, save some time, or the way to earn extra money. Sharing economy had aired a lot of good commitment to helping the powerless individuals to become "micro-entrepreneurs" so they can dominate their lives, freedom and flexibility to make use of idle assets or spare time, opened a new mode of operation.
Share your own economy is also committed to a sustainable model that can replace the mainstream business model. If we have spare tools, rather than take a place at home, you might as well get out of shared revenue. Travelers may not want to buy a car ride can reduce the number of private cars, reduce carbon emissions and contribute to a green city. From the social level, the optimization of resource allocation, adjusting production capacity. Share economy also advocates a concept, we chose to use the right to encourage, rather than tenure, we encourage the pursuit of enjoyment to enhance the experience.
But the reality is a shared economic upset the access rules in traditional industries. For the legitimate rights and interests of consumers, they do not provide any protection. Let the actual practitioners in constant fear of complaints, but there is no basic security, which practitioners can only select a greater risk of precarious and low-paid jobs. Instead, these companies shared economic investors and executives have made a fortune.
One of the first shared goal is to break the existing economic commercial monopoly against those poor quality service taxi companies and large hotel chains, want to achieve true free market economy. But now the situation is that these companies have a shared economy has become one of the industry monopoly.
To airbnb and uber, drops, represented by shared economic
airbnb originated in Silicon Valley, a very common story. A group of young design students want to go to San Francisco Design Conference, but can not afford the high rent. 3 airbnb the founder wanted to buy the inflatable and find cheap accommodations for these students, and found that receive a lot of applications for accommodation and there are also aware of the needs of the market, can be made into a business, then took Silicon Valley investors to invest, to build a successful, sustainable development of the company.
But airbnb gradually deviated from their original purpose. In its published data show that the platform on which the landlord 87% of the rent out of their own house. That the landlord only one set of listings, it looks really consistent with the concept of shared economic advocated idle assets will be shared with the whole world to get something in return. But airbnb in fact hidden part of the story - there are more than two listings that 13% of landlords occupied a large part airbnb business, airbnb 40% of the house they rented out, the number of tourists booking occupy 43 %the above. So nearly half of their business comes from multiple listing landlord. airbnb from these multiple listing landlord has earned a lot of money, the landlord can circumvent these provisions bed and breakfast and short-rent involved, to carry out their business.
airbnb listings There are three types, the first is to share a room, such as: hard floors, sleep sofa, and the second is a separate room. The last is the whole house. In order to raise the rent, but most of the listings are the whole house. This is in fact most of us and the hearts of "sharing" concept does not match.
We look at uber, initially did not mention that he is sharing economy, and its slogan is "Everyone's personal driver." Only later is the competition among competitors, and gradually introduced a preferred carpool program. Carpool mode is a "two-sided markets", uber manages the supply of passengers and the driver, the more favorable the more passengers on the platform of the driver, the driver more passengers also more favorable. And the cost of technology uber With the continuous expansion of the area can be apportioned out. Generally speaking, it is a very good business model. When uber enter a new city, it will provide subsidies and special offers to drivers and passengers to start the business. When a foothold, the ratio of it away from increasing the fare, but also often reduced prices. After May 2015, it started a pilot commission of 30%. One of the reasons why uber development is so rapid that the taxi standards more stringent than the uber such as carpool companies access standards. However, there occurred uber drivers and passengers have been cases of violations, except that the taxi companies need to fulfill their legal responsibilities, but uber shared economic and other companies, will decline, said the drivers are not employees uber, uber therefore to take place in the process It is not responsible for the accident. And uber very clear that he does not provide a public service, it is just a match drivers and passengers of technology companies, they have no legal or contractual duty to ask you to obey the law. In addition, uber nor is it an independent taxi companies, it is the business matching between the driver and passenger, China announced its drivers are independent contractors, so put the responsibility and obligation to completely pushed to the driver's body, which also eliminating the need for their own taxes.
The so-called shared economic uber here in the real vested interests is the company's executives and venture capitalists, once the market suffered a monopoly (such as: drops), drivers and passengers will become the object of strife.
To mobike and ofo cycling as the representative of the lease, shared-economic
In China to Morocco thanks to cycling and bike sharing ofo as the representative of the economy is not really shared, so do not think of the name of the shared banner is a shared economy. Share Although the economy is not clearly defined, but we have a consensus that we put idle assets out, then quickly matched by demand-side platform to trade in the real world. What we call bilateral market, but thanks to friction and ofo are typical of the single market, you spend money to rent a bicycle side of the road, then riding some distance, stop to another place, they just automated low the short-term rental business. Let me look at sharing economy advocated "full use of idle resources", Mount worship and ofo clearly does not like this a bit. For policy delivery in major cities, although in a way convenient for users, but the wanton confusion parked, damaged vehicles littered everywhere, became a municipal solid waste, resulting in a large waste of resources. This is actually a way to promote economic and shared principles of mutual violated.
Some also say that the economy is actually shared rental economy. The difference is that the economy is actually advocating is shared right to use and possession of the separation, as an individual or occupancy rights for the company, it does not matter. So although, like Mount worship and ofo have bikes can be called shared ownership of a bicycle. But the biggest problem is that there is a supply side friction worship and ofo itself, so that their fixed costs and each additional car is much higher than the marginal cost sharing platform. One can imagine that once formed the market monopoly pricing power falls into the hands of Mount ofo and worship, then in order to maximize the benefits, consumers will inevitably become weaker party.
Decentralized sharing economy
Shared economic nature is to allow both sides to quickly establish mechanisms strange mutual trust and sharing resources and information via point to point the way. However, due to the trust between the two sides unable to establish an unfamiliar transaction, so it appears airbnb and such intermediate platform uber, they secured transactions both parties promised to honor each other. But by the above analysis, we found that this fact did not honor their commitment to the platform for the sharing economy, which control the market, charge exorbitant fees, and no real help optimize the allocation of resources. What are the root causes of these phenomena is it? We can be attributed to a large extent to the center is not enough. We wanted a platform and property owners deal directly. But this has to return if there is no middleman, strange how trust on both sides of this seemingly unsolvable problem of each other. If there is no middleman, who will ensure the transfer of security, who brokered party property and leasing people?
These problems can be solved by intelligent contract on the block chain. Block chain is a trusted machine, which uses game theory and economics on encryption technology to ensure the safety and effectiveness of trade, anyone can access. Transactions conducted on the block chain, is not tampered with, transparent traceable features. And the block chain with a 2.0 "self-realization" features intelligent contracts, can help traders quickly encode contractual commitments on both sides. Once reached the preset conditions of the contract, will be able to automatically execute, do not worry about the other party breach of contract. The reason can be reached in accordance with the contract is smart technology on the block chain such commitment, it carries the role of middlemen original guarantee trust, as well as we often say, "disintermediation" and "to trust" the origin.
Achieve decentralized intelligent lock contracts
In many scenes shared among economy, in fact, a "smart" locks to be competent. This is why we have the idea to the center of the intelligent lock. Overall implementation logic is as follows:
- The landlord contract by intelligent Smart Lock Contract Registration locks and housing rents.
- Find an address by the tenant contracts for the transfer of contracts to rent houses
- Tenant came home in front of the show (two-dimensional code by the self-signed messages turn into) two-dimensional code
- Two-dimensional code recognition camera on the door, and to verify the authenticity and legality of the contract of tenant rent time signature, a door opening
