Blockshipping Announces Platform Development and Public Token Sale on May 14th

The seaborne freight industry accounts for 60 percent of trades conducted by sea, making it one of the most valuable water-based industry. However, the enormous potentials of this industry keeps getting frustrated by security threats, overcapacity, increasing environmental regulations, and low freight rates.

At any given moment, there are over 27 million containers either being freighted from one destination to the other or waiting to be picked up. Intermodal freight containers have become the most favoured mode of transporting goods across distances, setting the precedence for the revolution of the shipping industry and the modern global trade.

The Trouble with Shipping

Despite the benefits that intermodal delivery systems have brought to the shipping industry, the system continues to be plagued by both efficiency and optimization problems. Up to 20% of all containers shipped remain unaccounted for when it comes to exact location, precise destination, and current ownership. To exacerbate this problem, no one can tell if these containers are empty or loaded, resulting in time mismanagement and inefficiency. To solve these challenges, what is need is a neutral, global platform uniting all industry players to keep real time tracking of all containers, ownership, location, and destination. A solution like Blockshipping.

Blockshipping addresses the challenges facing the shipping industry through an enterprising  Global Shared Container Platform (GSCP). GSCP is the world’s first real-time registry shipping containers on the blockchain and a unifying ecosystem for all stakeholders in the industry, enabling them to cooperate and communicate efficiently and effectively.

Blockshipping’s CEO, Peter Ludvigsen, had this to say:

“Traditionally, the shipping industry has a reputation for being rather conservative, but what I have experienced since the announcement of our GSCP project is anything but the traditional pushback on new business ideas. It has been like one unbroken series of positive dialogues with key players of all areas in the container shipping industry.”
