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.
