Carnomaly to Bridge the Gap Between the Automotive Marketplace and the DeFi World

Carnomaly links its global network of users to the DeFi World, leveraging its automotive marketplace as a common playground for everyone.

Amidst mainstream adoption, it is almost impossible to build a blockchain project withoutย including a decentralized finance (DeFi) component. The reason for this can be attributed toย various factors, one of which is the fact that most blockchain initiatives are community-driven.

As a result, most blockchain initiatives require the implementation of a native token which, in theย possession of a community member, guarantees voting rights. In other words, communityย members who own a share of a projectโ€™s native tokens can participate in the decision-makingย process, as well as enjoy unlimited access to a suite of DeFi tools.

The same can also be said in the case of Carnomaly, a blockchain-based protocol thatย facilitates the sales and management of vehicles in the most secure, decentralized, andย transparent way possible. If you would like to learn more about the primary purpose Carnomalyย was built for, you can read about it in our previous publication here (insert link to article 1*).

A major reason for the existence of Carnomaly is to bridge the gap between the automotiveย marketplace and the DeFi world in general. Thankfully, DailyCoin was lucky to have anย exclusive chat with the COO of Carnomaly Josh Taylor, to discuss the methods behind theย decentralized protocol.

As you may imagine, Taylor had a lot of insight to share as to how the team at Carnomaly linksย its global network of users to the DeFi World, leveraging its automotive marketplace as aย common playground for everyone.

To begin with, Carnomaly incentivizes its users to provide data about their vehicleโ€™s history in aย bid to ensure trust and transparency amongst all stakeholders (i.e car owners, potential buyers,ย and dealers) involved in the end-to-end transactions on the platform.

While the incentives are paid out as a form of encouragement, members can further maximizeย their profits by leveraging the networkโ€™s suite of DeFi tools, including lending andย collateralization for car loans, among other benefits.

Car DeFi and Everything it Entails

Being one of the components of Carnomaly, CarrDeFi, as the name implies, enables membersย to use the incentives received during maintenance (i.e, from providing data of car managementย history) to earn more tokens.

โ€œEssentially, CarrDeFi is a form of staking, where you earn interest on the amount ofย tokens youโ€™ve locked up. The difference here is you'll be lending your crypto out forย people to receive auto loans. In this way, you're not just receiving an incentive, butย you're also able to use tokens earned through CarrDeFi for further financial gain,โ€

Taylorย noted.

According to Taylor, members can use both the native crypto asset as well as other top cryptosย to earn interest on auto loans through CarrDeFi.

In addition to lending and borrowing, members will also be able to make use of the native tokenย on the Carnomaly marketplace, which is still under development, when making purchases ofย new vehicles.

Car DeFi Still Leverages Components of the Centralized System

Carnomaly isn’t completely void of the old system. According to Taylor, the company has filedย CarrDeFi with the SEC, and has established a partnership with the National Motor Vehicle Titleย Information System (NMVTIS), which is the same system that Carfax employs.

Just like Carfax, the decentralized protocol also uses the NMVTIS system to retrieve data fromย the network, as well as to classify it into various VZW categories. For instance, the system is able toย provide relevant vehicle history such as whether an incident was accidental, or if a part hasย been replaced, among other things.

Ultimately, Carnomaly has positioned itself to be at the forefront of the automobile industry’sย imminent evolution, and is doing so by leveraging its proprietary blockchain solution.

On The Flipside

  • CarrDeFi, being a component of the Carnomaly protocol, is still in its Beta stage, implying that the rate of adoption may be slow at the onset.ย 
  • The DeFi space is a mess, with major regulatory enforcement pushing in on all sides, this, as well as learning how things operate, not to mention the fear of the unknown, make adoption challenging to justify for newcomers.

Why You Should Care?

Carnomaly affords members the opportunity not only to navigate the automotive industry seamlessly and transparently, but to also maximize the range of benefits that come with doing whatโ€™s right. By leveraging the decentralized protocol, every stakeholder gains the benefits of having access to the best car deals in the industry.
