Thanks to blockchain technology, crypto, and the metaverse<\/a>, we will see a new era in which the consumer is put front and center. <\/span>One aspect that is being explored right now is P2P car buying.<\/p>\n

Remember when Elon announced many moons ago that you could buy Tesla<\/a> with Bitcoin? We were members. As it stands, decentralization will help us regain control of our lives and make the car-buying experience more fun and less stressful. <\/span><\/p>\n

Here are three ways crypto is being used in the car biz.<\/span><\/p>\n

Reason 1: The Tech Generations Are Growing Up With Blockchain<\/b><\/h2>\n

The next generation of adults \u2013 including yours truly \u2013\u00a0 are finally becoming free and independent people. We\u2019re graduating from college, paying bills (and loading them onto credit), buying our first cars\u2014all while juggling Snapchat stories of our mostly failed lives.\u00a0<\/span>We live in a wild, tech-dominated world. <\/span><\/p>\n

But we\u2019re increasingly getting used to it.\u00a0 It\u2019s why cryptocurrency has a future in auto and the metaverse has a place in car culture.<\/span><\/p>\n

This doesn\u2019t mean we\u2019ll have a full VR or crypto experience when purchasing or test-driving a car; rather, we\u2019ll begin to see more \u201cmixed reality\u201d events. Mixed reality means that some of the mundane parts of life (going to the DMV, office meetings, etc) can be integrated into the metaverse while other things are left to the fun of physical reality.<\/span><\/p>\n

Perfectly balanced, as everything should be.<\/span><\/p>\n

Reason #2:\u00a0Buying Cars with Cryptocurrency (Tesla\u2019s Experience)<\/h2>\n

Cryptocurrency is slowly but surely becoming more mainstream. We\u2019re seeing businesses large and small begin to accept crypto as payment. Tesla, for instance, allowed customers in 2021 to buy their cars with Bitcoin!<\/span><\/p>\n

The news was short-lived.<\/span><\/p>\n
