A lot of times, people want to know where the locals eat as opposed to where the tourists eat because the locals’ restaurants are both cheaper and they are more authentic. This platform provides this and places a “cool cousin” all over the World for you. So the next time you visit someplace, you get to own it and know it like the back of your hand. What I like about this is that you can ask updated information not only on fun stuff but also on safety issues so you will know where you will be safe. Since this will be like your family away from your family, things like proposing to your girlfriend may even be arranged by your cool cousin :) You get to pick and choose your cool cousin and you can their interests and what they do. If you are interested in music, you can choose a musician cousin. If you are a foodie like me, you can pick the cousin that understands fine dining or street food or whatever you like. If you enjoy social activities, you can pick your culture oriented and very social cousin. It's like choosing your family when you understand what you like :)

Considering this platform has more than 500K users and over 1,000 local influencers in 80 major cities around the world, I believe it will be a great success. Since they already have a working product and an experienced team, it is quite plausible that they will continue to grow and be more successful than ever. Think of how Uber and Airbnb started out, this company has all the features they have and they have the power of blockchain and decentralization on their side. This can be seen from the roadmap and they already had a successful pre-seed funding round because VC-backed decentralized travel agency is an excellent idea.

The platform already has a web app, so you do not really need to download the Android or IOS app if you do not want to, you can simply browse from Chrome or Firefox. This makes it easier for first-time users because sometimes you want to save your battery power, and using your pc at home makes it easier.

Let’s say you are visiting Paris or Thailand, you understand all the brochures and pictures on the internet but you do not want to pour over all that content and lose your time since all that stuff is not customized for you, they are general touristic attractions. You want to know what tickles your fancy in there, what you will like, and most of all, what the people in there do. If you wanted to taste your own culture or do similar things, you would just stay at home and do those in your own city. Among other things you can do, you can ask your cool cousin for advice on the timing your visit, where you should stay, tickets for special occasions, current events, customized itineraries and more. They are simply the new travel agents, decentralized. The travelers benefit from the local’s first hand and updated knowledge of the city they are visiting, and the locals get to earn some money with this system. The system uses that crypto token CUZ and uses the blockchain technology with the public and a transparent ledger which cannot be changed, hacked or manipulated. The blockchain thus prevents the company from making commercial decisions that compromise the service’s authenticity. On this specific system, low overhead costs and transaction fees are the largest advantages. In addition, this system helps create the Universal Basic Income as shown in the Star Trek Next Generation Universe and I am proud to be writing about it as a Star Trek fan.

The website states that autonomous Community of contributors will monitor content quality to make sure that nothing iffy goes on and the system can be trusted for correct and updated knowledge. This means that the cousins that have contributed the most to the platform will be able to participate in decisions that will help shape the platform, including what services are accepted on the platform and future Cousins. This will bring in peer review and ratings to the platform and the whole system will be a meritocracy, democracy based on merit as opposed to wealth and governance based on resources.
