Mass Vehicle Ledger (MVL) is an ecosystem that uses blockchain technology to improve and connect the vehicle industry. Find out more about it in this article.

around the world in 2022, and sales continue to remain strong. The automotive industry extends far beyond the sale of new and used vehicles, including vehicle maintenance services, repair centers, ride-hailing, auto insurance and more.

All of these various sectors have thus far been disconnected. In addition, many issues plague the vehicle industry, such as poor service from paid drivers, uncertainty when buying a used vehicle and complications booking a rental car. Now,

is resolving these issues and interconnecting all aspects of the vehicle industry. 

The MVL ecosystem encourages users to feed data by offering MVL Points, or MVP, as a reward. This data includes everything from the service of a professional driver to repair experiences and more. MVP can then be used in the ecosystem —specifically, by businesses for marketing opportunities. Users can also exchange MVP for MVL tokens. Participants can take advantage of

like TADA Driver, which offers a separate account that holds each user’s rewards and can be used for ride-hailing and other purposes.

MVL tokens are the native token of the MVL ecosystem, and can be used for mining, staking and making purchases in the app. MVP earned through participation in the ecosystem can be exchanged for the MVL Coin. In addition, they may be used to pay for car rentals, gas, car washes, parts and auto repairs. 

MVP is the primary driver of the ecosystem. It’s used to reward all participants in the ecosystem for their contributions. Specifically, those who provide input about services, products and more will receive MVP. These points are then used by business participants for marketing within the MVL ecosystem.

MVL was established by a mobility service provider with five years of industry experience. Through its owners’ activities and experiences in the industry, numerous pain points have been identified, which the ecosystem intends to resolve. The current MVL team includes CEO Kay Kyeongsik Woo, CTO Jaehwa Han and CSO Woosung Son. In January 2021, the project’s

MVL’s founders have identified a significant disconnect in the vehicle industry that’s detrimental to drivers, vehicle owners and other industry participants. Through its point-based system and its use of blockchain technology, MVL collects and maintains all records for a vehicle, including service and repairs, sales history and more. It also collects data about dealerships, auto repair facilities and others. 

Rather than having vehicle information maintained by third parties, MVL makes the collected information available to industry participants. More than that, it allows participants to share in the wealth generated by the ecosystem.

A vehicle enters the MVL ecosystem when it’s first sold by a dealership, requiring a user to input an account number and the vehicle’s serial number into the system. Dealers are incentivized for encouraging drivers to take this step. Throughout a vehicle’s life, information about auto services and accidents will be recorded. 

The ecosystem will also monitor transactions involving vehicles. For vehicles used for ride-hailing purposes, safe driving and great customer service will be tracked and rewarded. For rental cars, movement data and vehicle maintenance are tracked. Various information can be provided to auto insurance companies so that drivers receive a fair rate. The data can also be used later, when the vehicle is sold, to properly assess its true value. 

MVL is designed with three essential layers, each of which performs critical functions. The core layer is the basis for the entire ecosystem. It includes both the blockchain and the external distribution storage. The blockchain stores information such as encrypted owner information, and includes public info like the registration number, vehicle identification number, model, make and more. 

Information is added over a vehicle’s life, such as service history, sales history, accidents and other data.

’s network is used to store the data at this time. However, because of the volume of data that may be stored, an independent network is being created for this purpose. 

The service and component layer is where third parties and service providers connect to MVL. It also allows developers to create

layer plays a crucial role in fast transaction processing times and data categorization. A significant portion of the MVL ecosystem’s utility takes place on this layer.

On the application layer, users can interact with DApps and access public data that’s been inputted by other users. Many languages are supported in the application layer to facilitate functionality in markets around the world. 

MVL is a complex yet easy-to-use and beneficial ecosystem. Its many functions are rooted in several key features that include MVL Bridge, MVL Treasury, MVL Pool and MVP Exchange. 

allows for the wrapping and unwrapping of MVL tokens across BNB Chain and the Ethereum mainnet. The bridge generates fees that are attributed to the pool. 

is a pool of funds collected from bridge fees, DEX transaction fees and other related fees accumulated through the ecosystem’s usage. The pool is managed by MVL’s project team, and its funds are used to pay operational expenses and participants’ rewards. They’re also used for token buybacks and for the initial formation of the liquidity pool. 

MVL Pool supports the reward system. Contributions to the pool are made through fees, data sales, commerce revenue and sales from marketing ads. The pool’s funds are then used to cover rewards for miners. Additional funds cover MVL’s operational costs, and are contributed to the MVP Exchange. Currently, there are no plans to create a staking pool or offer staking rewards to users. All pool transactions are transparent and are recorded on MVL’s blockchain.

The conversion rate for MVP into MVL tokens is based on the circulating supply of tokens in the pool. Roughly 40% of the assets in the mining pool are attributed to the exchange of MVP for MVL tokens. The exchange rate is based on a complex formula that’s largely rooted in the coin supply in the pool. 

In 2018, MVL got off the ground with its initial coin offering (

ride-hailing and taxi services in Singapore and Cambodia. The availability of TADA then expanded to other markets. In 2019, MVL partnered with BNB Chain, released its mainnet code, raised funds, and launched its taxi driver app and the TADA Wallet. 

Some of the progress made in 2020 includes the conclusion of an

, additional fundraising, the introduction of a token swap feature, listing on the KRW and BTC exchanges and the launch of a Korea-based ride-hailing app. 

MVL published its white paper in January 2021. It also developed an E-station and the E-Powertrain, and

was mass produced for the first time. In January 2022, MVL Bridge launched. Looking forward, the MVL development team is focused on enhancing the usability of the ecosystem. Additionally, a focal point will be on expanding participation in the network. 

Mass Vehicle Ledger’s native MVL token has a maximum supply of 30 billion. This token is used to pay various fees in the ecosystem, including bridge fees and other transaction fees, and can be used to pay for various services and products, including car rentals, gas and more. 

A fixed number of MVL tokens have been issued, which supports and encourages growth in the price of MVL. The current MVL price is $0.00472793 (as of Apr 27, 2023), with a 24-hour trading volume of over $138 million. Its all-time high of $0.069730 was achieved on Apr 2, 2021. The current market cap is approximately $108 million, with a fully diluted market valuation of over $142 million, and the circulating supply is 22.85 billion tokens.

The true value of MVL is rooted in its functionality within the vehicle industry. However, earning and holding MVL tokens has the potential to be financially rewarding as well. According to

may hit $0.006 by the end of 2023, and by the end of 2025 may double to reach $0.013. Looking further ahead, with an expected increase in trading volume, MVL’s price could hit $0.078 by 2030.

MVL offers great benefits, not only enhancing the user experience throughout the life of a vehicle for all related parties, but also expanding to cover customer service by drivers, auto repair and more. The MVL team is confident that these functions can help users to make better buying decisions and choose reputable service providers. 

MVL also encourages businesses to provide better customer service, and facilitates marketing and operational decisions.
