what's Swivul?
Swivul is a blockchain-based travel booking platform designed to enable users to pay for hotels, flights, tours, activities, experiences, and events using cryptocurrencies and other digital assets. It aims to bridge the gap between crypto holdings and real-world spending by integrating various tokens directly into the booking process, reducing reliance on traditional fiat gateways. The platform operates on a decentralized model, allowing seamless transactions with popular cryptocurrencies while potentially offering rewards or incentives for using specific assets. Users can explore a wide range of travel options globally, with bookings confirmed quickly upon payment. Swivul emphasizes accessibility, making it easier for crypto holders to utilize their portfolios for practical purposes like travel without needing to convert to fiat first. By supporting multiple assets, Swivul promotes interoperability in the crypto ecosystem, potentially integrating with wallets and chains to facilitate cross-asset payments. This positions it as a key player in the growing intersection of DeFi and everyday services.
