Abstract: Purchasing, maintaining, and deriving revenue from mobile autonomous units is facilitated by providing a mobile autonomous unit marketplace in which equity shares in mobile autonomous units can be bought, sold and traded. Valuation of mobile autonomous units within the marketplace can be a function of a variety of factors such as the mobile autonomous unit's primary geographic region, and the number, diversity, and time management of revenue streams available to the mobile autonomous units.

Abstract: Identity management is disclosed that allows authentication of a user for a third party by way of an encrypted token. A biometric signature can be requested for a user of a user device. In response, an encrypted token can be generated based at least in part on the biometric signature. The encrypted token can then be provided back to the user device, which can save the encrypted token to a secure location on the user device accessible by biometric authentication of the user on the user device. An authentication request can be provided from a third party which includes an encrypted token. A determination can be made regarding whether user identity can be confirmed based on the encrypted token. An indication of whether the user identity was confirmed or unconfirmed can then be communicated in response to the authentication request.
