I'm interested but $100/yr kind of sounds like a lot. Is it free to host? I wouldn't mind building up credits for a road trip later if I didn't have to pay. Also maybe a monthly price would make more sense as I tend to be on the road only for periods at a time. (or maybe even a per-booking fee?)
Anyways, yearly sub is kind of a non-starter for me though I like the concept.

- benatkin 3y agoIt sounds like too little to avoid hosting people who don't have a place where host. Someone could pretend another non-host user is hosting them and both could use the credits to stay with actual hosts. Or they could host someone in the same place where they're staying that they don't own or rent.
- culi 3y agoit's california only and "every member is vetted". Clicking the sign up button gives you a form to write out an email telling them about yourself. I think it's a "small on purpose" kind of thing
- shkkmo 3y agoI think it's a "doesn't actually exist yet" thing since it has no testimonials, no account creation process, no examples of possible sites, and really just a single page brochure with a "contact us" form.
- benatkin 3y agoYeah I know they plan to vet them. $100 per member doesn't seem like enough. I think to vet them they would want a minimum $200 million investment.
- benatkin 3y agoThis was hyperbole. I would like to see experimentation in trust networks. I just expected more details from this project.
