The secondary market for mobile phones is enormous, and Flavio believes that putting that market on a blockchain-based open platform is the future.  We discuss his thoughts on deploying a permissionless blockchain not only for his own company’s business, but to allow an entire ecosystem to develop that offers all manner of goods and services on a B2B, B2C, and C2C basis.  If mobile phones – the most successful consumer electronics device in history – are any indication, the possibilities seem endless with platforms that leverage the right tech and have the right features.

Flavio Mansi, Part 2:  The Vision of an Open Platform and New Marketplaces Using Blockchain

Flavio’s vision is a peer-to-peer open platform for buying and selling used mobile phones – of which there are millions around the globe.  Flavio shares his take on the mobile phone industry, including existing inefficiencies in how used phones are graded, priced, sold, and delivered to the next owner, all of which he’s hoping to disrupt with blockchain technology.  His plan is to use blockchain to fix informational asymmetries, reduce transaction costs, and promote pricing efficiencies.  Flavio’s ultimate goal is for a platform that fosters a marketplace that is open to everyone and not limited to mobile phones.
