10. The device of claim 9, wherein the sensor captures driver behavior.

11. The device of claim 9, wherein the sensor monitors behavioral data over a period of time.

12. The device of claim 9, wherein the sensor gathers vehicle data during operation and during parking or at rest.

13. The device of claim 9, wherein driver and vehicle behavior is are used to determining an expense or a charge.

14. The device of claim 9, wherein driver and vehicle behavior is are provided as feedback to reduce an expense or a charge.

15. The device of claim 1, wherein the processor verifies a loan contract for the body using the blockchain.

16. The device of claim 15, wherein the loan contract is issued by a lender, a rotating credit association or a social network lending group using the blockchain.

17. The device of claim 1, wherein the processor verifies a purchase contract for the body using the blockchain.

18. The device of claim 17, wherein the purchase contract is issued by a lender, a rotating credit association or a social network lending group using the blockchain.

19. The device of claim 1, wherein the body comprises a lock or an access control device for a real property and wherein the processor verifies a purchase contract, a mortgage contract or a rental contract for the real property using the blockchain.

20. The device of claim 19, wherein the contract is issued by a lender, a rotating credit association or a social network lending group using the blockchain.
