Travala and the support for Telegram’s crypto: Toncoin (TON)
In the blog post, Travala describes Toncoin as a decentralized and open internet, created by the community with technology designed by Telegram.
Regarding the new partnership, Juan Otero, CEO of Travala.com, stated:
“In continuing our commitment towards the mass adoption of cryptocurrencies, we are pleased to collaborate with Toncoin to support the growth of the cryptocurrency community and bring a new real use case to TON.”
Founded in 2017, Travala.com is the leading crypto-native travel booking service with over 2,200,000 properties in 230 countries, over 400,000 activities, and 600+ airlines globally.
Not only that, Travala.com is a champion of the adoption of criptovalute, accepting over 100 major cryptos along with traditional payment methods.
The price of TON
At the moment, the news does not seem to have caused the price of TON to skyrocket, which, on the contrary, is in a bear dump of -2.5% in the last 24 hours.
Certainly though, Telegram’s crypto is riding the wave of the bull run. In fact, TON is the ninth crypto by market capitalization, just below Dogecoin (DOGE). Its total market cap is 16.7 billion dollars.
Not only that, at the time of writing, the price of TON is $6.90. Its all-time high was reached last week, exactly on June 7, at $7.70.
