How will you provide upgrades on book anytime?

Doesn't in conventional hotel and tourism themselves, an upgrade on book is still dependant on the availability of upgrade space?

The issue with javor mislav is also being discussed on their telrgram actually. They said that the problem lies with the web developers, and they have addressed an apology, although maybe indirectly, to him. To prove their real team, I think they will soon upload a photo.of the team together.

interesting idea
unfortunately this project lacks the support of large ads and works with larger projects
I am sure this will be beneficial for the progress of this project

Hi ganegani91,

This has already been answered and there are already ads going around in selected areas we aimed to operate at.

I want to add that we have also organized bounties to help us expand our reach in a more organic manner.

At the same time, these bounties enable participants to own Lotus Tokens without the need to join the crowd sale (although we do need supporters on that token-sale end of the marketing/business plan).

Hopefully, you will participate in our bounties/airdrop campaigns and if you can't contribute to our crowd sales, you would help spread the word and invite others to support this project.

Regards!

will have the option to select travel packages? Type pass, lodging and even tours included in the package?


Hello @lilaj4de!

Yes, that's something that we have also envisioned - to provide a way for travelers to customize packages depending on available partner establishments. It relies on the way the establishments get accessed via the Lotus dashboard.

Ideally, smart contracts will be put in place whenever a tour or tour-package is sought. Like existing booking systems, policies will be drafted to protect both the service provider and the consumer (i.e. full or partial refund for canceled reservations). These policies will be hard-coded on the smart contracts and will be the basis of tokens that get transferred between affected parties.

One very fundamental question the DEVs have to answer is how this project intends to be unique/different from countless travel and hotel booking projects that exist all over the world?

Also I searched everywhere and can't find your team. That's very important as we need to know the brains behind the project

Hello adotrulez!

The whole travel industry is one huge mix of service providers with varying strategies and as much as we want to be as unique as possible, there is still that chance that we will be doing similar promotional feats as others. True, we might be more advantageous than other travel startups, but there are also those who can swallow us wholly without even thinking about it.

That is the exciting challenge we've prepared to face. Nevertheless, we do not focus our thoughts on that trivial matter.

What Lotus wants to focus on - and is working towards now - is to create a new mix and grow a travel-loving, blockchain-informed community in the process.

Btw let me introduce myself -- I am one of the first few devs (contracted junior smart contract engineer) and was also helping out develop the business model (behind the scenes). I happened to love the project's vision so I am still here to support however I can. You can find my profile at LinkedIn and the rest of the team members at our Official Website, but it would be better if you join us over at Lotus Telegram Community  since we are most active there.

Do take note that this is a startup project and its future is in the hands of the powers that be (which includes supporters like you).

Lotus is a Decentralized travel Agency, what is it has to do in an ICO industry?

Hello! I saw your question and would like to help answer it out. ICO will help Lotus Token Inc gather the needed startup funds to finance its objectives. As mentioned on the Telegram group, four of its immediate goals are:

Goal 1: Lotus Wallet for Mobile Devices
Goal 2: Tie-ups with related FinTech companies and business establishments
Goal 3: Fiat-to-Crypto Teller Machines in selected establishments (i.e. Airports, Hotels)
Goal 4: Crypto Card that can be topped up and withdraw from

hey looking good project to me. I had a question, I couldn't find any instruction of how you'd provide us airdrop coins, Is it gonna be on account on your site or any Erc20 wallet or anything.

Airdrop mechanics are yet to be finalized and will be handled right after the ICO. For now you will find a concept plan of how it will be implemented via the whitepaper. What's final is that there will be tokens to be Airdropped.

Please join our Telegram group to learn more about this project > https://www.t.me/lotustokeninc

Also, we've just launched our Tele bot and most of the general questions could be answered there.

We also have a PRIVATE Telegram Bounty in case you haven't joined yet. Check it out.

Cheers!

I've asked some of the basic question that'll help point out their main goal and their point of differences in comparison to other exchanges, they explained them one by one on this post

Hi Julia_KA,

You can find the answers on second page - 2nd post.

Can I book hotel rooms and air tickets anywhere?

Hi hadang,

yes exactly you will only need to have internet access and lotus on your account to book any flight or hotel.

So what is your competitive selling point in attempt to penetrate traveling sector that's already have a great competitors with an almost similar apk (although they still only have fiat as their payment method) like Agoda and Trivago? They also offer the same service where you only needed your internet-connected phone to book hotels and flights.

In fact, people might prefer them more than Lotus because of some reason like below:
1. They are better known and familiar than Lotus. A lot of people have use it, and could recommend new people to use them instead of Lotus.
2. They sometimes offered promotions like vouchers and discounts
3. They're in fiat  which means they are more applicable and acceptable by a wider users (at least for now, while crypto is slowly fusing itself with our daily life) than ethereum-based token
4. You're in crypto, which is infamous for its volatility. I believe it will be the least interest of anyone to book a hotel worth 100 USD which at that moment (let's say) equals to 1,000 LTK only to find that the next two days, LTK rises and they can have the room at a mere 500 LTK.
5. And ultimately, their beloved mobile app could literally decide at anytime that it's time for them to apply bitcoin or ether as their newest payment method. This will instantly reduce your bargaining point because (a) as mentioned on point 1, these applications are better known and people will feel more comfortable on using them instead of the relatively new app (b) the usage of btc or eth (or even doge) which has a stronger market position will be considered as a more safe option if they want to try a crypto-payment-holiday than LTK.

Please mind that I'm not trying to corner you here. I only suggested  some points that you might (or might not) missed. Also please mind that I haven't read your WP, so I wouldn't know if those points are already on your control or not. But a lot of new comers and end-users also wouldn't bother reading a lot of pages just to book tickets (hey, we even skipped TnC that's only few paragraphs long) so you might want to make these points clear to your future customers.
That's a very thorough review. And straight to the point. Will be interesting to see the reply =)

Lotus coin will be use on purchasing tickets, that's awesome. I will support this project because i will be the one who benifited for it if it's become successful. Using cryptocurrency in booking a flight is amazing. Many people will be interested on this kind of platform. Lotus must have an application to book flights so that it is accessible for everyone to use and explore it.
