Under this plan, devs will develop a decentralised autonomous organisation (DAO) tool on the Astar network. That tool will be available for the employees of Toyota. The Astar Network-based solution will help to push yield management.

This is not the first time for Astar network to go with practical-level development work, earlier Astar collaborated with Japanese largest phone network company NTT Docomo.

Astar network founder Sota Watanabe said that the team is focussing to develop a unique Proof-of-concept tool for Toyota employees and that tool will be a good product because Toyota employees will interact with that tool daily.

“If a good tool is produced, Toyota employees will interact daily with Astar Network.”
