Abstract

DRIFE is redefining the ride-hailing paradigm by evolving into a decentralized mobility data protocol and financial infrastructure layer for the global gig economy. Rather than compete with incumbents like Uber and Lyft, DRIFE enables users,drivers and riders,to aggregate and own their mobility data across multiple platforms. This data is synced, verified, and anchored on-chain, forming a portable, decentralized identity and reputation layer.

Through token incentives, DRIFE rewards users for contributing verifiable trip data, creating a trustless ecosystem where reputation becomes a transferable, blockchain-native asset. This infrastructure unlocks previously inaccessible financial services,such as microloans, staking-based benefits, and proof-of-reputation mining,for millions of gig workers.

DRIFE is engineered for scale, leveraging the Sui blockchain to record millions of high-frequency micro-transactions. DRIFE is not a ride-hailing app,it is a protocol layer for mobility data, decentralized identity, and equitable finance. This whitepaper outlines the architecture, economics, and roadmap of a system built to return control to users, reward contribution, and catalyze financial inclusion from the ground up.
