On the other hand, the upcoming Litecoin Summit will boast Travala.com as its “official accommodation partner.” (Interestingly though, Travala.com is also the “official partner for Bitcoin 2019 event.”) On this, the CEO and the Founder of the online travel agency- Travala.com, Matthew Luczynski had the following to share,
The consumer is in the driver seat when it comes to achieving mass-market cryptocurrency adoption, and we are delighted to embark on this journey with the Litecoin Foundation with a unified goal: to bring the mainstream use of cryptocurrencies into everyday life. This is a proud milestone for us as we continue building out our platform to welcome those who share the same vision for the crypto economy.
He further added,
With the token economy wielding its influence on the travel landscape, #TravelwithLitecoin is an excellent demonstration of how the industry is keeping abreast of the changing times, amid the rise of the 21st-century consumer.
