Hello Cosmos community,
I’m currently working on a minimal test version of a decentralized booking system — not for hype or speculation, but as a real-world use case that directly supports the Cosmos ecosystem.
Idea
This is not a full-scale booking service like Airbnb or Booking. It’s a simple prototype that allows users with a sufficient ATOM stake to reserve a real apartment directly — with no escrow, no KYC, no fiat, and no middlemen. The entire security and access logic relies on the blockchain itself.
How It Works (MVP concept):
A simple front-end built in React.
Users connect via Keplr wallet.
The site checks if the user has at least 500 ATOM staked.
If yes, they can request a reservation (dates are selected manually).
Payment is made directly on-chain, no smart contracts.
Cancellation requests can be made by providing both the email address (stored in the memo) and the transaction hash via the booking interface.
Host must also hold a stake — this guarantees mutual trust.
If the system is abused, wallet addresses can be blacklisted.
Real Property for Testing
I am not a developer — I work in the tourism industry. But I am willing to provide real apartments for test usage and create a demonstration of a working crypto-native booking use case.
Goal
This is a prototype to:
Explore real utility of ATOM beyond speculation.
Offer an alternative for people who prefer crypto-native, censorship-resistant solutions.
Attract developers who might want to improve it technically.
Next Steps
I am publishing this as a draft to gather feedback.
No code is public yet.
A live version of the front-end demo is being prepared.
I will also publish this on another Cosmos-related platform/forum for visibility.
If there’s interest, I’ll be happy to continue building and collaborating.
Thank you for your time — looking forward to your thoughts.
