Cool Cousin Update - October 2018
-------------------------------------

Hi All,

A few weeks ago, we told you about the challenges we’re facing and how we’ve been spending all of our time working on the right strategy to help CC succeed in spite of this stormy climate.

It’s important to say that we’ve received important feedback from our supporters asking us to communicate more about what’s going on with the company. I’m sure lots of you feel the same way. We’ve taken this feedback very seriously and will ensure that we communicate with you more often. Your support, especially during these challenging times, is crucial to us and very much appreciated. We are soon scheduling an AMA with our CEO, Itay. In the past few months, he’s chatted with a lot of you, as he has open slots on his calendar for anyone who wants to chat with him face to face.

Henry Ford once said that “when everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it”. Now, what this means for us is that it’s crucial to find the right angle and take off. Industry experts and thought leaders are signaling that in 2019 what will matter is real usage. CC is in a unique position in this regard; unlike many projects that are still building their tech and now scrambling for users, we have a powerful community and a thriving ecosystem backing us up. And both ready to be monetized, powered by CUZ.

Regulatory uncertainties and the state of the market are negatively affecting the blockchain community. Under these circumstances, we feel especially confident by the support from our token holders who understand the strategic importance of preparing the foundations for what is truly unique and will move the needle – the onboarding of over 1 million CC users into the blockchain space in 2019. Having said that we can not look away and dismiss the huge challenges that this current state brings. budget, momentum, technology, maturity, financials - these are all things that must be taken into account as we change our roadmap, and I’m pleased to be able to share with you details on our key decisions for the near future:

Our plans for Q3 2019 have been brought forward and we will focus on building a solution for businesses and organizations. We will launch 2 pilots with strategic partners by the end of 2018. This is a very important decision, as it amplifies the need for proven revenue streams before mass adoption and allows us to operate without relying on market conditions. After the pilot, we’ll set business KPI’s and scale up this side of the company.
Due to the extension in timelines regarding the Casper network and proof of stake, we realized that a simple implementation on the Ethereum blockchain will be unfeasible in terms of gas costs as well as maximal compute power per transaction. We’ve decided to team up with two well-known blockchain partners to overcome the technological barriers we’re facing. We’re working on the details with them and soon we’ll be ready to officially announce it.

Being on the frontier requires us to be very adaptive. Companies that refuse to change and adapt will probably die in this current state. After spending a lot of time analyzing the pros and cons for different strategies, we believe that this is the right one for us at the moment. We’re excited to be working with strategic partners to make this happen on both technical and the business aspects. We expect to see positive indications by the end of the year and release an updated roadmap for 2019. The roadmap will provide a clear vision of our technical, business and liquidity timelines for 2019. 

While we have a challenging road ahead of us it is also very important to share 3 great things that happened to Cool Cousin in the last few weeks:

Cool Cousin was chosen to be “App of the Day” by Apple, you can check out the nice things they wrote.
We’ve officially launched our Android app, making Cool Cousin accessible for everyone
Our most anticipated city is now live - Tokyo was finally launched and we couldn’t be more excited

I hope that answers most of your questions Rest assured that all of us here at Cool Cousin are working day and night to secure our future. In response to your feedback, we pledge to communicate more and keep you posted on a regular basis.

Have a great week! The Cool Cousin team

Yeah continues to work but they really quite about their project. I still cant understand what are they waiting for, almost half of years already passed still dont have a good benefit for the token holder. The team need to inform us uptodate about their project

Air BNB transformed every household with a spare room into a host, TripAdvisor gave every consumer a voice of their own and Priceline nullified the business of the high-end travel agents. After all these big things happening in the realms of the travel industry, Cool cousin is the next big thing to happen in the world of traveling.

Thanks for the news. It is pleasant to see that the team continues to work on the project.

It never had a lot of potential imo. The idea isn't spectacular in any way and why does this have to be a decentralized service. It is not like people are craving for such a service being decentralized.

No one knows about the crypto market, to be honest listing with bearish or bullish market anywhy the value this token already dead, because lack of information and losing some trust from the community. They said they only hear a big investor so thats mean they no need community.

I agree, this is not a promising project)) The guys are just waiting for the green market and hope to get a lot of easy money.

I dont know about this project, this project really bad withing 5-6 Month after the ico still not yet have some update for The Development and other think. You can check the social media cool cousin. and the the they really lack of community for the investor. Still same answer like amazix answer within 5-6 month.

What is the current situation for Cool Cousin? Are you still waiting for better times or will you continue the project anyway?

why you can say if Cool Cousin is a perspective project? this platform has many problems including lack of communication (no twiter posts for almost 2 months)
so this looks like a dead project, and even they not try to list on a decent exchange

Perspective project. I have been following him since spring. Nice to see the team continue to work on the project.

Hello Darrel, great set of questions!

Cool Cousin is the first decentralized peer to peer travel agency. There are many companies out there trying to solve traveler's recommendations problems, but Cool Cousin is the first product to connect travelers directly to locals by offering city guides and 24-7 on demand advice.

I can assure you that members the team are all real and of course very knowledgeable in their various fields of specialization.
You can read about the team, the founders, and everyone else on page 51 of the white paper and beyond right here: https://www.coolcousin.com/ico/coolcousin-whitepaper.pdf

Itay Naygler, is the CEO of Cool Cousin and he's an experienced company builder with a proven track record of turning ideas into products that engage millions.

The hard cap for the project was 17500 eth out of which 97.4% = 17,045 ETH  was raised in total

Please find the use of precedes below

Research and Development 45%
MARKETING 20%
ADMINISTRATION 155
OPERATIONS 10%
LEGAL 3%
Contingency 7%

Hope this helps answer your question.  

Hello, guys!
I've a few questions! 1. What problems does the plan aim to solve? 2. Who is in the team? Are they identifiable? Is it a real person? 3. Who is spearheading the development?
4. What is the hard cap and the amount they are trying to raise? 5. What are they going to do with the ICO funds?

Cool Cousin sees similar projects as potential partners rather than competitors. However, Cool Cousin is the only platform that allows for personalized recommendations based on the recommender rather than the location. At the end of the day, if 500 people recommended a restaurant, you don't know who they are. The live map feature allows for real-time location and taste-based recommendations, which better suits flexible travel schedules. Most of similar projects profit off of content, without rewarding the users who created the content. With CUZ, Cool Cousin will become an ecosystem that empowers people to monetize their unique city knowledge and time spent.
Cool Cousin also offers unique concierge services as an affordable price, from booking, to personalized itineraries and recommendations - cut to size.
