Introduction
In this present age of high technology, the use of internet and the influx of people into the crypto space has made an astronomical rise in the aspect of global sharing and made high rise to the adoption of blockchain technology. Communities of people have shared the use of assets for many years and have allowed individuals and groups to make money from underused asset. Let take for instance car sharing services like UBER and LYFT. The concept of a sharing economy is inscribed in human instinct. The structure includes sharing, gifting and swapping; individual choices are basic part of any community. However sharing economy helps to transform the relationship between employer and contractor. The use of big data has made it easier for asset owners and those seeking to use those assets to find each other. This type of enterprising can also be referred to as collaborative consumption or peer economy.
Despite the enormous rise in the sharing ecosystem, there are still major barriers like lack of trust, data leakage and abuse, issue of competitors, lack of transparency, limited growth, high transaction fee, government policy and fraudulent activities.
EXISITNG BARRIERS FACED IN SHARING ECONOMY
DATA LEAKAGE AND ABUSE: Data leakage and abuse is one of the main barrier of sharing economy, Centralized data storage mechanism can easily lead to data leakage and misuse. Most companies prefer to store users’ data on a centralized database. If the server that contains the data is been hacked, a huge number of sensitive information or data would be at risk. Other centralized company often sells user data in exchange for money; this has caused a lot of brouhaha in the sharing economy ecosystem.
TRUST ISSUES: Trust is an important aspect to look out to in sharing economy. For a successful transaction to take place there must be mutual trust. The old technology has not been able to find befitting solutions to the problem of trust between people through technical means.
HIGH TRANSACTION COST: Excessive transaction costs have always been the norm in the centralized matchmaking business which is no different in the sharing economy. Banks and other financial institutions charges enormous fees when users initiate extra transaction if they are using fiat to pay.
