Travala the blockchain powered travel platform has achieved a massive boost to it’s financial growth and establishing itself in the crypto and travel industries. The platform announced surpassing USD 100 million in annual gross revenue for 2024 a sharp rise from USD 59.6 million in 2023.
This announcement was made as the company announced it’s Treasury Reserve Plan that leverages Bitcoin (BTC) and its native token AVA and it’s commitment to blockchain innovation within the travel industry.
Traval's Treasury Fund
To enshrine its position as a leader in blockchain innovation and travel Travala launched a Treasury Reserve Plan that includes holding Bitcoin and AVA as strategic assets. CEO Juan Otero described the initiative as critical for enhancing liquidity and supporting long term growth.
“Our Treasury Reserve Plan is not just a financial strategy; it’s a reaffirmation of our belief in blockchain’s transformative potential for the travel industry,” said Otero. “By holding reserves in BTC and AVA, we’re preparing for a future where crypto assets can be used directly, eliminating the need for fiat conversion.”
The reserve will also support the AVA Smart Program which is a loyalty initiative that allows users to earn and redeem rewards in both BTC and AVA. This aligns with Travala’s broader vision to provide a Web 3.0 powered travel experience, blending blockchain technology with seamless travel solutions.
Travala's Rise
Founded in 2017 Travala changed the travel booking industry by integrating blockchain technology, offering users over 2.2 million accommodation options, access to 400,000 activities and connections with 600 airlines across 230 countries. The platform supports payments in over 100 different cryptocurrencies with Bitcoin and AVA playing core roles in its operations.
Revenue growth has been quite large, starting at USD 4.4 million in 2020, Travala’s earnings surged to USD 41 million in 2021, riding the crypto market's bullish wave. After moderate fluctuations in subsequent years, 2024 marked a landmark achievement as revenues crossed the USD 100 million threshold helped by increased adoption of crypto payments for travel services.
Overcoming Market Volatility
Travala’s journey hasn’t been without challenges. The AVA token, which hit an all time high of USD 6.45 in April 2021, is currently trading at approximately USD 0.70. Despite this decline, the token remains integral to the platform driving user engagement through its loyalty and rewards programs.
Travala has consistently adapted its operations to stay ahead. Initially built on the NEO blockchain, the platform migrated to Binance Chain in 2019 to enhance efficiency and scalability. This flexibility has enabled Travala to maintain its competitive edge in the rapidly evolving crypto ecosystem
Travala’s milestone comes during a economic boom moment for the crypto industry. Bitcoin recently shattered the USD 100,000 mark and President-elect Donald Trump’s pro crypto stance has created a hyped environment for blockchain businesses. Trump’s recent announcement of plans to establish the U.S. as a global crypto leader adds to the momentum aligning with Travala’s vision of driving blockchain adoption.
The synergy between political support and market enthusiasm highlights the potential for blockchain based platforms like Travala to thrive. With its Treasury Reserve Plan Travala is well positioned to capitalize on the growing mainstream acceptance of cryptocurrencies.
Travala’s achievements show the increasing intersection of blockchain technology and traditional industries and how Web 3.0 is becoming a more integral part of everyday life. By focusing on innovation, customer focused solutions and strategic financial planning. The platform has set a benchmark for integrating crypto into everyday services that many will need to follow along with.
Travala does have plans to expand its team and services by introducing new incentives and potentially include additional cryptocurrencies in its treasury. These initiatives aim to drive further growth while strengthening the platform’s role as a pioneer in blockchain enabled travel.
With USD 100 million in revenue and a forward thinking Treasury Reserve Plan, Travala has not only solidified its leadership in blockchain powered travel but also demonstrated the immense potential of crypto in reshaping global industries.
