Automotive Industries’ history, is the history of the auto sector. Founded in November 1895, it was initially called The Horseless Age. It was the first magazine to cover the world’s transition from horse-drawn conveyances to those powered by the internal combustion engine. In July 1909, in an era when gasoline, steam and electricity all vied for pre-eminence, the magazine changed its name to The Automobile. Its present avatar, Automotive Industries, was created in November 1917. The magazine was briefly called Automotive and Aviation Industries during World War II. This was because during the war, the magazine had expanded its coverage of technologies and production methods to include the aircraft industry, in which many automakers participated.

“If you go back and look at The Horseless Age, it’s sort of like the Byte Magazine of the PC industry, very hardcore, covers all the models in-depth, explains what’s going on inside……definitely part of getting things going,” said Bill Gates, Founder of Microsoft.

With the Automotive Industries NFTs, customers can buy a piece of the history of the grand old magazine, and its priceless library that has titles dating from the 19th century as well as getting access to future, exclusive titles. With Sportcash One, the NFTs will be protected by its expertise in blockchain technology. Blockchain is an incorruptible digital ledger of economic transactions that can be programmed to record not just financial transactions but virtually everything of value. Sportscash One uses the Waves platform – this allows its users to build applications, create and distribute new cryptocurrencies. Waves was founded by the physicist Alexander Ivanov in 2016. Today, Waves is believed to be one of the fastest blockchains and continues to serve as a transparent, fully decentralized and auditable platform for value transfer. The Waves platform heavily relies on fiat gateways administered by independent operators. These operators enable users to exchange fiat currencies for digital coins. However, the coins here are different from traditional cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. Fiat currencies like USD or EURO are converted to fiat tokens (wUSD or wEUR) and can now be transferred through blockchain. Anyone can run the Waves node software to work with and check the Waves blockchain for correctness.

The Switzerland-headquartered company, says that its ecosystem boasts a NFT marketplace, social sponsorship network, a digital wallet, tokenization-as-a-service (TAAS), NFT-based primitive for trading sporting assets, and a multi-vendor shop where brands, shops, customers, and athletes participate together in its vertically integrated ecosystem optimized for engagement and shared ownership.
