QX Travel Experience
QX Travel Experience is a pioneering Web3 ecosystem that bridges the gap between cities and tourists through decentralised identity (DID) and a unique reward system. By leveraging centralised cloud tools for cities and decentralised technologies for travellers, the platform offers a seamless and secure way to earn rewards. The open-source software component ensures public inspection and contribution. QX Travel Experience empowers users with decentralised solutions, protecting their privacy and delivering reward tokens instead of traditional impression-based advertising. With QX Travel Experience, tourists can enjoy essential digital tools like exploring and communication without compromising their data. The platform aims to democratise tourist data and engagement, fostering economic prosperity and adhering to democratic principles. By integrating decentralised governance models and prioritising individual privacy, this initiative transforms the digital experience for tourists, aligning with QX and NGI goals of data marketplaces and data democratisation.
- Motivation for the project: Bundled travel portals with search engines and social media channels monopolise digital interactions between travellers and experience providers. QX challenges this by building a decentralised ecosystem where data is democratised, privacy is permanent, and rewards drive engagement instead of impressions, aligning with TrustChain’s goals.
- Generic use case description: A decentralised platform allowing tourists to create a secure digital identity, earn rewards for their activities, and access essential services without compromising their personal data. This ensures privacy and promotes fair engagement between tourists and experience providers.
- Essential functionalities: The QX Travel Experience Wallet includes decentralized identity management, reward tokens, smart contract-based data sharing, and secure cloud governance. These functionalities ensure user privacy, fair reward distribution, and seamless interaction between tourists and city services.
- How these functionalities can be integrated within the software ecosystem: These functionalities integrate via APIs, enabling connections with previous NGI TrustChain and upcoming projects. The open source availability of the wallet and the smart contracts broadens this options ensuring growth of the ecosystem.
- Gap being addressed: The QX Travel Experience Wallet addresses the lack of privacy-focused, fair engagement and reward systems in digital tourism. Current platforms compromise user data for advertising. Our solution ensures secure, decentralised data handling, empowering tourists with privacy and equitable rewards.
- Expected benefits achieved with the novel technology building blocks: Enhanced user privacy, fair data compensation, increased trust in digital services, and greater tourist engagement. The platform democratises data usage, promotes transparency, and provides equitable rewards, transforming the digital tourism landscape.
- Potential demonstration scenario: In a pilot project within the city of Athens, tourists will use the QX Travel Experience Wallet to create decentralised identities, engage with the city, earn reward tokens for visiting landmarks, and redeem these tokens for local services, all while maintaining full control over their personal data.
