That article is technical nonsense. 'Blockchain' that has PoW consisting
of 1.6 second of handset CPU is trivial to fake. And where is the
consensus? Car does the same? Or is car running 500KW GPU cluster doing
hash verified by ... who? Cheap PoW ("Proof of Work") is contradiction
in terms.
This is actually a good illustration of utter bullshit that passes for
'technology'.
We need blockchain powered nettime! BLOCKTIME!
see for instance Porsche's one blockchain per car:
# distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission
# <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism,
# collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets
