Kenesis — NFT-Based Course Platform

Kenesis — NFT-Based Course Platform
Kenesis is an online learning platform where creators sell courses and learners receive NFT-based access, allowing them to resell courses later. I worked across frontend, backend, and web3 integrations as part of the development team.
Full-Stack & Web3 Developer
The Problem
Traditional course platforms lock access to accounts and offer no ownership or resale. Creators and learners both lacked flexibility.
Mapping course access to NFT ownership
Handling crypto payments reliably
Designing resale-friendly access control
Keeping the experience simple for non-crypto users
The Approach
We treated NFTs as access keys rather than speculative assets, designing the system around clarity and predictable behavior.
Linked course access directly to NFT ownership
Built backend services to verify access securely
Integrated crypto payments with fallback handling
Kept the UI focused on learning, not crypto jargon
The Impact
NFT-based
Ownership Model
transferable access
Crypto-native
Payments
on-chain purchases supported
Implementation Details
- React frontend for course consumption
- Node.js backend for access control and payments
- Smart contract integration for NFT ownership checks
- Crypto payment handling with transaction verification
- Role-based access tied to wallet ownership
