Let's talk container shipments. Recently I started using chatgpt to quickly find companies in specific locations and industries. While it's certainly not robust and ideal like a ZoomInfo, I can say it's been a pleasant surprise to at least begin research. Beware, chatgpt does make errors. What are your favorite ways to prospect?

Hey Tonnie, i still go to LinkedIn or just research a particular industry. I'm excited for you going further into Drayage. 👏
Cryptocurrency in Freight Shipping
Has anyone in our group worked in a shipping environment where a cryptocurrency was utilized to pay for the shipping of their freight? I know in eCommerce there are a number of sites where you can purchase and pay for the shipping in Crypto. Overstock, Shopify, NewEgg and Rakuten all accept crypto payments for shipping services. I know in Maritime freight the "ccc" container crypto coin was launched on ethereum ledger all the way back in 2018 but never made it to full adoption. But currently in Freight Trucking Transportation is anyone operating in this space? Any carrier planning on accepting Bitcoin or Crypto for payment or having their freight moved on a Blockchain ledger? Anyone have any insight into these developments it would be great to discuss where this is headed in terms of freight settlements in the future.

Hello John, i am inquiring because i keep hearing or reading about rerouting carriers. I thought Brokers were not suppose to be involved with the routes carrier drive just track and trace.

Broker Bonds don't cover Intremodal Freight
I just found out the broker bonds don't cover Containers. So how do we go after brokers for our non payments?
