The Irish Tech News Podcast The ultimate travel booking site that gives and gives and gives ... with Rhiannon Fletcher
Rhiannon Fletcher talks about Bitbook.network and its travel plans, rewards and fund raising.
BitBook is a platform built for travellers, content creators, and the hotel industry to benefit everyone. Travellers are the biggest winners with more access to travel at lower costs, content creators earn for their contributions, and hotels take advantage of lower commission fees resulting in lower prices for guests, adding to the value of their trip.
The travel industry is facing unprecedented challenges while the world goes through the recovery process following the pandemic. Travel bloggers are part of the world’s gig economy and have been hit hard, as have hotels, and of course, travellers have been grounded. We have all been planning our next dream holiday from the confines of lockdowns. When travel opens back up, BitBook is positioned to provide a complete travel ecosystem on the blockchain that will tie together two key industries, crypto, which has boomed with the rise of DeFi and other disruptive technologies, and the travel industry which has been battered.
BitBook’s primary mission is:
To enable more people to experience the world, creating a self-sustainable and autonomous digital economy.
Creator Rewards
Content creators and influencers can join the monthly reward pool and get paid tokens for creating articles, guides, blogs, and vlogs. This will draw users looking to travel to these destinations to the website, which will make it more popular for creators and so on.
Traveller Rewards
Travellers will be rewarded for booking accommodations. This acts as an incentive to use the platform, which results in more bookings and further growth. Driving the token up, which pays the content creators more, encourages more content, and attracts more bookings increasing growth in a viral loop.
Review Rewards
BitBook goes a step further and provides a complete review platform for travellers backed up by the blockchain, eradicating the fake reviews that plague the industry. Travellers can rest assured that the review is from someone who stayed there because reviewers are verified through the blockchain, and hotels can focus efforts on real guests rather than phantom complaints.
In today’s digital economy, content is king. BitBook has built a platform that rewards the best content inherently and provides a complete ecosystem around all things travel-related supported by the crypto industry. BitBook has made the site accessible for those who don’t have crypto by enabling Visa/MC payments converted on the client’s behalf into BBT for a marginal fee. By providing a bridge from fiat to crypto, the customer has a seamless experience utilising the blockchain without having to buy-in directly.
