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.

01 / Challenge

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

02 / Approach

The Approach

We treated NFTs as access keys rather than speculative assets, designing the system around clarity and predictable behavior.

01

Linked course access directly to NFT ownership

02

Built backend services to verify access securely

03

Integrated crypto payments with fallback handling

04

Kept the UI focused on learning, not crypto jargon
