VeChain’s Evearn App Partners With Smartcar to Reward 30+ EV Brands

Evearn and Smartcar integration brings B3TR token rewards to electric and hybrid vehicle drivers across Europe and North America via VeChain blockchain.

Evearn, a drive-to-earn application built on VeChain’s VeBetter platform, has partnered with connected vehicle data platform Smartcar to expand its B3TR token rewards program to drivers of more than 30 electric and hybrid vehicle brands across Europe and North America.

The integration allows Evearn users to connect their vehicles through Smartcar’s standardized data interface, which tracks odometer readings to calculate CO₂ savings compared to fuel-powered alternatives. VeChain’s blockchain then records reward allocations based on verified driving data.

How the System Works

Smartcar eliminates the need for additional hardware by providing API access to vehicle data from major automakers. Users grant consent through the Evearn app, which only accesses odometer information—not location or personal data. Each trip generates an on-chain record of emissions saved, with B3TR rewards distributed accordingly.

The B3TR token currently trades at $0.0152 with a market cap of $5.42 million, according to market data from January 21. The token powers VeChain’s broader VeBetter ecosystem, which hit 43 million verified sustainability actions as of January 12.

VeBetter’s Growing App Network

This partnership arrives just days after VeChain named its first VeFounders on January 20—developers selected to run applications within the VeBetter ecosystem. Evearn joins a roster of X-2-Earn apps designed to tokenize positive real-world behavior, from recycling to sustainable transportation.

VeChain reports over 5 million user accounts and 350+ applications on its network. The VeBetterDAO governs token distribution and app onboarding, with reward logic publicly auditable on-chain.

Market Implications

For B3TR holders, the Smartcar deal expands potential token utility by tapping into the EV market across two continents. Whether that translates to meaningful demand depends on driver adoption rates—a metric neither company has disclosed projections for.

The partnership represents VeChain’s continued push into sustainability-focused use cases, though B3TR’s modest trading volume suggests the token hasn’t yet captured significant speculative interest. Drivers interested in the program can access Evearn through the VeWorld wallet on iOS and Android.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…
