HUSSY.io

HUSSY is concerned with the prevention of human trafficking and minimizing the spreading of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). The value proposition is to create a platform and to provide incentives for sex workers around the globe for safe execution of their profession. We have identified that the root cause of most problems associated with sex work lies in a social stigma toward the participants, leading to a contradicting discrepancy between the need for privacy and trustworthiness. The solution we offer provides anonymized but verifiable KYC compliance, professional health certification and Proof of Consent stored on the Blockchain.

ABOUT HUSSY

HUSSY Sex work (or prostitution) is the business or practice of engaging in sexual activity in exchange for payment either as money, goods, services or some other benefit agreed upon by the transacting parties. There is expected to be around 40-45 million sex workers living all over the world with generated annual revenue of almost $200 billion. There are a variety of challengingproblems faced by participants in this industry – namely, illegal sex work, human trafficking, violence against women and children, increased probability of transferring sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) or false rape accusations against the clients. The value proposition of our project is to create a decentralized platform and to provide incentives for both sex workers and their customers around the globe for safer engagement in paid sex services. The solution we offer provides anonymized but verifiable KYC compliance, professional health certification and Proof of Consent stored on the Blockchain. In this paper we describe in detail the problems with the status quo, our proposed solution, roadmap, business plan and conditions of the crowdsale.

THE SEX WORK INDUSTRY IS BROKEN

Let’s look at the most fundamental facts.

Challenging problems

Presence of associated issues such as difficulties with screening of clients, lack of trust between the parties and worries about the privacy.

Harmful regulations

Despite the size of the sex market, we find current regulatory efforts from governments inefficient for safe execution of this profession.

Lack of innovation

The nature of this industry slowed down the influx of venture capital and prevented many digital innovations from taking place.

BLOCKCHAIN IS THE SOLUTION

Our solution will revolutionize engaging in sexual activity in exchange for payment by utilizing the Blockchain technology. The Blockchain will enable to increase the privacy, safety and the trust in the sex work industry like never seen before.

OPEN TO 3RD PARTY PLATFORMS

HUSSY is not just another another escorting platform, but rather a whole escorting infrastructure. We are legally able to operate our own escorting platform only in selected countries, however anyone can open their own escorting platform anonymously in any country and join the distributed HUSSY infrastructure in order to improve the status quo of the global sex work industry.

IMPOSSIBLE TO SHUT DOWN

Decentralized nature of the HUSSY infrastructure makes it near impossible to shut down. Our solution is not dependend on a central server, which makes it resistant to harmful regulations like FOSTA / SESTA. Only the data owners are in control of their data, nobody else is able to delete or modify the data — not even us, not even the listing platforms and not even the law enforcement.

FAIR & FLEXIBLE FEE SCHEDULE

Monetizing of listing platforms is based on a fair advertising fees that are updated according to demand for sex services in a given time and location. Every service provider can choose an optional fee for a listing — the higher the fee, the more often will be the offer shown to potential clients. All fees are payable in ERC-20 tokens.

NO TIME-WASTING OR ABUSIVE CLIENTS

Clients are incentivized to make a security deposit before arranging a meeting. In case of an inappropriate or abusive behaviour, the client risks losing of his deposit. Furthermore, service providers may require a client to make a booking deposit in order to filter out time-wasting clients that make a reservation but never appears on a meeting.
