🛠️Vertical Development
Trustless Work is pioneering a whole new category of escrows, unlocking opportunities for innovative use cases across diverse industries. The potential is immense, and we’re supporting builders to turn their visions into scalable verticals—each targeting massive markets independently.
Evolving Hackathon Projects into Verticals
We believe in the power of builders to transform ideas into impact. While anyone can build on Trustless Work without needing permission, we offer support in product development, business models, and scaling for those who align with our vision.
From hackathon concepts to fully-fledged verticals, here’s how some of our initial projects are taking shape:
1. Security Deposit Vertical 🏨
Origin: Initially focused on house rentals.
Evolution: Pivoted to offer security deposit solutions for broader applications, including:
Hotels
Car rentals
Directories requiring secure payment interactions.
2. Crowdfunding Vertical 🌱
Origin: Collaboration between Kindify and Revolutionary Farmers.
Solution: An escrow-based crowdfunding mechanism allowing multiple funders to contribute.
Flexible Fund Release Options: By milestone or as a lump sum.
Applications: Social impact projects, agricultural financing, and community-driven initiatives.
3. Future Verticals 🌍
Trade Finance: With Costa Rica’s recent invitation to join the CPTPP (Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership), new opportunities are emerging to integrate escrows into international trade finance.
Why It Matters: Escrows can streamline payments across member countries with diverse currencies, reducing friction and boosting trust in global trade.
Marketplaces: This vertical is in development, with promising potential to create secure payment solutions for e-commerce and platform-based economies.
A Strategic Approach to Vertical Development
Each vertical is positioned as an independent product capable of:
Pursuing its own funding through grants or investments.
Leveraging Trustless Work’s infrastructure as the backbone for secure, transparent transactions.
Targeting massive markets with scalable solutions.
We’re fostering a future where builders can capitalize on the stablecoin wave and leverage Trustless Work to create entirely new markets for escrow technology.
