EQTY and Ownables

How Standard · Pro · Ultra subscriptions, vehicle licenses, and fleet tokenization work in Yoou TAXI.

Ownables · EQTY · Base

Pay subscriptions and licenses with EQTY

Standard · Pro · Ultra plans are priced in euros. The fleet panel charges EQTY at the live rate on Base (Ethereum L2).

What are Ownables

Ownables are programmable digital assets: not just a blockchain record, but a contract with ownership, events, and a lifecycle. In Yoou TAXI, Ownables cover fleet licenses, vehicle tokenization, and share accounting.

  • The asset lives in the owner’s wallet (WASM contract + event chain), not only in the cloud.
  • Events: license purchase, vehicle tokenization, share sale, buyout from earnings, collateral.
  • Public event anchors on Base; private history in the EQTY event chain.
  • Yoou backend mirrors the registry for the fleet panel and platform analytics.

What is the EQTY token

EQTY is the Ownables ecosystem token (ERC-20 on Base). In Yoou TAXI, Standard / Pro / Ultra subscriptions and vehicle licenses are paid in EQTY at the euro-equivalent price.

  • Buy any amount on Base DEX — ETH, USDT, and other pairs.
  • Yoou prices are in EUR/mo; the panel charges EQTY at the live rate (not 1:1).
  • EQTY market gains do not raise your euro invoice — you pay the plan equivalent.
  • Connect your wallet in the fleet panel; verify transactions on BaseScan.

Asset types in the Yoou registry

Fleet license Yoou software subscription (Standard / Pro / Ultra).
Vehicle license €20/mo per vehicle above the free quota (paid in EQTY).
Tokenized vehicle EQTY shares per car: investors, driver buyout, collateral.

How payment works

  1. The fleet selects Standard, Pro, or Ultra (price in EUR/mo).
  2. The panel shows the EQTY equivalent at the current Base rate.
  3. Pay EQTY and create an Ownable license (fleet_license or vehicle_license).
  4. Term and amount appear under Subscription; events enter the EQTY registry.

Example: EUR → EQTY (Base rate, not 1:1)

Plan Fleet subscription Vehicle license Free on onboarding
Standard 70 €/ mo ≈ 70 ÷ EQTY rate 20 €/mo ≈ 20 ÷ EQTY rate 1 vehicles
Pro 95 €/ mo ≈ 95 ÷ EQTY rate 20 €/mo ≈ 20 ÷ EQTY rate 1 vehicles
Ultra 199 €/ mo ≈ 199 ÷ EQTY rate 20 €/mo ≈ 20 ÷ EQTY rate 5 vehicles

The exact EQTY amount is shown in the fleet panel when you purchase a license. Rate refreshes every ~5 minutes (Base DEX / CoinGecko).

EQTY · investment and payment

Buy the token on an exchange
Pay in Yoou at euro-denominated prices

Buy any amount of EQTY on a Base DEX — with ETH, USDT and other pairs. Yoou plans are fixed in euros: the fleet panel charges enough EQTY to match the plan at the current rate. If the token rises, you spend fewer coins for the same license.

Buy EQTY

Any amount on available Base DEX pairs: ETH, USDT and more. Move to your wallet — done.

Live rate

EQTY market price changes. Yoou pulls the Base rate (~5 min) only when you pay a license.

Invoice in euros

Subscription €70–199/mo, vehicle license €20/mo — in EQTY as EUR ÷ rate. Not arbitrary amounts — exactly the plan equivalent.

A simple illustration

Hypothetical example — numbers to explain mechanics, not a forecast.

Day 1 · exchange purchase

You buy 10,000 EQTY for $100 on a DEX.

Tokens sit in your wallet — hold, sell, or spend in Yoou.

Day 3 · rate went up

The same 10,000 EQTY might be worth $1,000 on the market — portfolio up.

Yoou still charges €20 for a vehicle license — not $1,000 and not a cut of your profit.

Payment in the fleet panel

Panel calculates: €20 ÷ today’s EQTY rate = N tokens to charge.

The higher EQTY vs euro — the lower N. You pay exactly €20 equivalent, not your entire gain.

An early EQTY stack can grow on the market while **lowering** monthly fleet license cost — if token and ecosystem demand grows.

Why holding EQTY alongside your fleet can make sense

Yoou TAXI scales

Every new fleet — subscription and vehicle licenses. EQTY demand for payment grows with the network.

Ownables and fleet

Vehicle tokenization, collateral, driver buyout — EQTY operations inside the Ownables registry.

Utility, not an empty token

Operator staking, record fees, rental escrow — EQTY is required for the protocol.

Ecosystem beyond taxi

Ownables on Base — licenses, warranties, equipment. Yoou is a major utility consumer.

Where to buy

Trade EQTY on Base DEX — pairs with ETH, USDC/USDT, etc. Any size: from a test buy to a fleet-sized pack. Verify the contract on BaseScan.

EQTY is a volatile asset. The example illustrates payment mechanics, not guaranteed price growth. Assess risks yourself. Yoou TAXI is not investment advice.

EQTY DAO — Ownables on Base

Where Ownables solve real problems today

Six focused scenarios where a single Ownable replaces fragmented paper systems — each can launch in weeks, with no EU mandate required.

6 scenarios
No EU mandate
Base network
EQTY token
Immutable history Append-only: records cannot be quietly rewritten retroactively.
Object for its full lifecycle One Ownable — all events, owners, and status changes.
Role-based writes Issuer, inspector, insurer, owner — each writes only their part.
No central registry Operators stake EQTY; fraud triggers slashing.

Use Cases

Six problems worth starting with

Each scenario has a market today, a clear state machine, and real EQTY utility — no government integration at launch.

★ Recommended start

Professional licence and certificate passport

A doctor, electrician, or truck driver in Europe accumulates dozens of documents from different authorities and countries. When changing jobs or relocating, the same papers are notarised and submitted manually again.

Why Ownables

A nurse moving from Germany to Sweden waits 3–6 months for qualification recognition. An Ownable with issuer staking enables instant verification. No new EU law is needed: mutual recognition already exists — what is missing is the technology.

  • Issuer stakes EQTY for signing rights — a forged certificate means slashing
  • Revocation is instant and visible to all authorised readers
  • The professional controls who sees each document
  • MVP: one profession (e.g. CPC driver) in one country
MVP

6–8 weeks — one Ownable schema, issuer role, employer integration

Industrial IoT

High-value equipment maintenance passport

CNC machines, MRI scanners, or aircraft engines are serviced by different companies over decades. History lives in paper logs and closed OEM portals — invisible to insurers and buyers.

Why Ownables

The certified equipment resale market is worth billions of €. Buyers pay for audits because they do not trust paper. An Ownable is a verifiable log with IPFS and technician signatures.

  • Manufacturer creates a genesis Ownable at production
  • Service centres stake EQTY for maintenance records
  • On sale, the full history transfers with the equipment
MVP

4–6 weeks — partnership with one OEM or service network

Art & collectibles

Physical art and collectibles provenance

A painting, signed guitar, or limited-edition sneakers: forged certificates cost the art market ~€6B per year. Paper COAs are easy to forge and lost on resale.

Why Ownables

Unlike a standard NFT, an Ownable tracks the chain of physical ownership — galleries, auctions, and restorers add events. The gallery stakes EQTY; transfer requires the holder's signature.

  • Gallery/artist creates genesis — NFC or QR links the item to the Ownable
  • Auction records the sale with a price hash
  • Restorer adds reports with photos to IPFS
MVP

3–4 weeks — one gallery or auction platform

Rental & leasing

Leased asset lifecycle

A leasing company manages thousands of vehicles, medical devices, and tools. Disputes over damage, missed maintenance, and return inspections are constant costs and litigation.

Why Ownables

An Ownable is an enforceable lease contract. Deposit held in stake. Damage recorded with photo hashes. Return comparison is cryptographic; disputes are rare.

  • Lessee stakes deposit in EQTY; lessor records condition at handover
  • Damage is logged immediately — no retrospective disputes
  • Automatic partial deposit return on clean return

In Yoou TAXI: fleet vehicle tokenisation, collateral, and driver buyout — the same Ownable + EQTY pattern.

MVP

5–7 weeks — one car rental or equipment leasing provider

MedTech

Medical device traceability and recall passport

EU MDR already requires UDI for implants and critical devices. But registries are fragmented across EUDAMED, with no real-time status or patient-side verification.

Why Ownables

MDR is already law. The regulation defines the data, but not a good storage system. An Ownable on UDI enables instant recall, hospitals read status, patients verify implants.

  • Manufacturer creates an Ownable when issuing UDI
  • Hospital records implantation with a patient pseudonym
  • Recall propagates to all affected Ownables
MVP

8–10 weeks — harder due to MDR; requires a MedTech partner

B2C

Portable warranty and service contract

Electronics and appliances: warranties are non-transferable, paper-based, and easily lost. Duplicate claims and backdating cost manufacturers hundreds of millions.

Why Ownables

Mass-market entry point: QR at purchase — Ownable created. Transfers on resale. Service logs repairs. Manufacturer pays gas in EQTY — no app install required.

  • Activation at purchase — no paper card
  • Warranty transfers on used sale via ownership transfer
  • Manufacturer sponsors gas — frictionless for the buyer
MVP

3–4 weeks — fastest launch, minimal regulation

Decision matrix

Where to start

Scenario Regulation No gov. EQTY GDPR Effort Market
🏆 Professional licences ✓ Directive 2005/36 ✓ Private sector first Stake + fees Medium Medium €50M+
Equipment maintenance ✓ Partially ISO 9001 ✓ B2B only Stake + fees Low Low €200M+
Art provenance — No mandate ✓ Fully private Fees + stake Low Low €10M+
Leased asset ✓ Contract law ✓ B2B only Escrow + fees Medium Medium €100M+
Medical devices ✓ EU MDR — Regulator required Stake + fees High High €500M+
Product warranty ✓ Consumer protection law ✓ OEM-driven Gas sponsorship Low Low €1B+

EQTY Token

Real utility, not token-washing

Each scenario drives EQTY demand as economic collateral for data integrity.

Operator staking

Issuers, inspectors, galleries, and service providers stake EQTY for write access. Fraud triggers slashing. Economic collateral for data integrity.

Gas sponsorship

For B2C (warranty, professional ID) the manufacturer pre-pays EQTY for gas. No wallet required for the user on the first step.

Write fees

Every Ownable state change carries a micro-fee in EQTY. Large operators (fleets, service networks) provide steady protocol revenue.

Escrow and deposit

In leasing, the lessee deposit sits in EQTY inside the Ownable. Clean return triggers automatic release; damage is settled via state hashes.

DAO governance

EQTY holders vote on field schemas, operator onboarding, and fee parameters — the standard for each vertical.

Fractional ownership

High-value equipment or fleets: fractional ownership via EQTY without full transfer of the physical object.

Strategy

From proof of concept to platform

EDVP is the goal. These scenarios prove value without government sign-off at start.

  1. Phase 1 — now (0–3 mo.) MVP: warranty or art provenance

    Minimal regulation, fast live Ownable with real transfers. Validate CosmWasm, IPFS, and staking on Base.

  2. Phase 2 — (3–6 mo.) Equipment maintenance + leasing

    B2B with an OEM and leasing company. Recurring write-fees in EQTY, escrow under real contracts.

  3. Phase 3 — (6–12 mo.) Professional passport — one profession, one country

    CPC driver in DE or nurse in LV. Private certifier, not a government registry. EDVP architecture at smaller scale.

  4. Phase 4 — (12–24 mo.) EDVP pilot — genesis from manufacturer only

    OEM issues a VehiclePassport Ownable from the factory. No government write — but live data from three verticals for regulator dialogue.

Yoou and Ownables: responsibilities

Ownables (wallet)

Source of truth: WASM contract, event chain, on-device asset ownership. Public events anchor on Base.

Yoou backend

Registry for panels: asset sync, event history, aggregates for fleet-panel and platform-panel. Fleet data still on your PC.

EQTY token on Base

ERC-20 for license payment. EUR rate from the Base market — not a fixed 1:1. Contract: 0xc71f37d9bf4c5d1e7fe4bccb97e6f30b11b37d29
