Twytch乘车应用程序已正式在南非启动，引入了使用区块链可验证的证书来解决困扰该行业的安全问题。

Twytch is the first e-hailing platform in Africa to integrate blockchain technology into its identity verification process. The move is aimed at ensuring user safety and security.

Twytch是非洲第一个将区块链技术集成到其身份验证过程中的电子出租平台。此举旨在确保用户安全和保障。

According to Twytch, the focus on safety is paramount:

根据Twytch的说法，对安全的关注至关重要：

“The e-hailing company has partnered exclusively with Secure Citizen to implement a Verifiable Credential (VC) system for all users.

“电子出租公司已与安全公民专门合作，为所有用户实施可验证的凭证（VC）系统。

“Through the power of blockchain technology and verifiable credentials, we are not just enhancing safety and security; we are redefining what trust means in the e-hailing service industry. Every ride is a safe space, every interaction is verified, and every user is protected,” said Denvin Naidoo, Safety and Security Lead for Twytch Africa.

“通过区块链技术和可验证的凭证的力量，我们不仅可以增强安全性和安全性；我们正在重新定义对电子出租服务行业的信任意味着什么。每次骑行都是一个安全的空间，每次互动都经过验证，并且每个用户都受到保护。” Twytch Africa的安全和安全负责人Denvin Naidoo说。

Twytch explains that verifiable credentials (VCs) are essentially secure digital versions of identity information, stored cryptographically on a decentralized blockchain, making them nearly impossible to forge or modify.

Twytch解释说，可验证的凭据（VC）本质上是确定性信息的确保数字版本，在分散的区块链上存储了密码，使其几乎无法伪造或修改。

“Unlike traditional identification methods, VCs are digital, tamper-proof, and ensure that only verified users can access the platform. The e-hailing industry in South Africa has long grappled with safety concerns, including incidents of identity fraud and crimes involving unverified users.”

“与传统的识别方法不同，VC是数字化的，防篡改的，并确保只有经过验证的用户才能访问该平台。南非的电子出租行业长期以来一直困扰着安全问题，包括身份欺诈和涉及未经证实用户的犯罪事件。”

In addition to ride-hailing services, Twytch will also provide drivers with banking and financial solutions.

除了乘车服务外，Twytch还将为驾驶员提供银行和金融解决方案。

“This includes vehicle insurance, retirement, death and disability benefits, wills, estate planning and financial wellness programmes. Drivers will also receive subsidised data and access to smart devices.”

“这包括车辆保险，退休，死亡和残疾福利，遗嘱，房地产计划和财务健康计划。驾驶员还将接收补贴的数据并访问智能设备。”

Rodney Douglas, Twytch’s Operations Lead for Africa, announced that the platform will launch city by city starting in February 2025, beginning with Johannesburg.

Twytch在非洲的业务负责人Rodney Douglas宣布，该平台将从2025年2月开始，从约翰内斯堡开始，纽约市推出。

“It will then expand to Durban, Cape Town, and Pretoria,” he said.

他说：“然后将扩展到德班，开普敦和比勒陀利亚。”

The company’s long-term goal is to grow across South Africa and into the broader African market. Driver recruitment is already underway, with 12,500 drivers being onboarded nationwide.

该公司的长期目标是在整个南非发展并进入更广泛的非洲市场。驾驶员招募已经在进行中，全国12,500名驾驶员正在登上。
