This is in line with a blockchain-based proposal that I had sent to the city of Amsterdam in mid 2017, where every residential unit has its own ledger to track how many times it has been let out.
It will be interesting to see if this actually rolls out, and what the impact on Airbnb usage in Amsterdam will be.
(in 2000, I founded Kamernet, which in a sense was a predecessor to Airbnb - albeit local to the Dutch market and not for tourists, and I am intimately familiar with the housing shortage in major Dutch cities. In my view, Airbnb is collapsing under its own success, unfortunately)
