It’s not always easy to find interesting places to visit when you’re traveling to a big city. Take Barcelona, for example. Instead of wandering around the city in search of a good coffee shop, wouldn’t it be easier to simply go to Foursquare and add the highest rated ones to your personalized map?

As it happens, that’s exactly what Cool Cousin promises to offer. Cool Cousin aims to streamline social recommendations of places for all its users and offers both a website and an app that can help with that.

Here’s How Cool Cousin Works

Cool Cousin builds a database of interesting places found in major cities around the world by using information acquired straight from locals. Users can connect directly with these locals, or “Cousins”, via the app and get recommendations straight from them.

Users simply need to open the app and select one of the Cousins to get started. Each Cousin has a curated list of personal recommendations along with additional details. Furthermore, users can directly message the locals for any inquiries regarding these places. Selecting a Cousin will grant you access to a map that you can use to find these locations.

Finding specific places is easy with Cool Cousin as each category features a different icon. Additionally, once you find the place you were looking for, the app also gives you a few options to play with. Looking to book a table at a restaurant? Or perhaps you want to call an Uber or get directions to a different place. The app lets you do all that, and for any additional information, you can always message a Cousin.

What Sets Cool Cousin Apart From Other Travel Apps?

Cool Cousin was designed with young users in mind and aims to become a major decentralized travel agency. The app uses blockchain technology to limit any interference. In short, what this means is that Cool Cousin users only get their information from other users and not from the company itself.

The app uses a crypto token known as CUZ and promises to offer affordable premium services. In addition to being a useful service for tourists, Cool Cousin will also be a great source of income for locals.

How Will The CUZ Token Work?

CUZ is an open-source crypto token based on the Ethereum platform. Much like any other cryptocurrency, CUZ will be used for transactions. In this case, those involving local information and travel services. The token will serve as the primary form of payment for Cousins who take the time to create interesting content. As CUZ grows, all Cool Cousin users can expect to benefit from its increase in value.

CUZ is similar to other cryptocurrencies in the sense that there is a fixed supply of it and is not subject to inflation. It’s worth noting that only a small part of the CUZ supply will be available for trading. The company reserves a portion of the supply for the Community Pool, which is used to reward certain actions within the Cool Cousin ecosystem. As for the liquid part, it can be traded on cryptocurrency exchanges much like most other digital currencies.

The total supply of CUZ will be limited to 300,000,000 units. The EXCHANGE RATE starts at 1 ETH = 3,770 CUZ. Tokens will be available for sale starting MARCH 2018. More info at https://www.coolcousin.com/ico/.
