Abstract: Abstract Extensive and closed traditional economies are constrained by resources and the environment. There are a series of problems in the market configuration such as single entity, limited resources, asymmetric information, high costs, and low efficiency, all of these are no longer suitable for the requirements of diversification, individualization and differentiation of subjects. How to break the shackles of resources and environment, improve the efficiency of resource utilization, and realize the optimal allocation of social resources have become the focus of the whole society. With the rapid development of modern information and communication technologies and network technologies, sharing economy, as a new economic form, gradually presents alternative relationships, supplementary relationships, and even competitive relationships with traditional economies.
