Travel Block - Expedia on the block-chain ICO review

in #cryptocurrency6 years ago

About the mission

TravelBlock will introduce the new generation of travel by eliminating the traditional Global Distribution System and going through the blockchain. By taking this route there will be significant advantages over utilizing existing frameworks and applications. It's low cost, pseudonymous, secure, immutable, irreversible and transparent for the public.

By being part of TravelBlock using your (TRVL) tokens, you will have an average of 30% to 60% discount on your vacation needs, through our private consumer platform available only to (TRVL) token holders. Thanks to strategic bulk purchasing we are able to offer some of the best deals on the market. We assure you that wherever your travels lead you to, you'll always get what you want, where you want, when you want it.

Travel Blockchain Statistics
306,000,000 (51% of the tokens) will be left for the ICO stages
(21% for Pre-ICO 126MN, 30% for ICO 180MN )
20% for TRVL Program 120MN
12% for Bounties and/or Promotional Campaigns 72MN
17% Reserved Tokens 102MN

On reserve for future sales based on milestones. 1 Stage, Travel Block reserves the right for a second stage of funding when a milestone of 100,000 users are on the platform.

No more than 12% of the TRVL tokens will be issued for bounty and/or promotional campaigns. This will highly reduce the probability of dump on the first day the token launches for exchanges.

Something is telling me this project will be big but only the future will tell.

Anyways I am not a financial adviser and this is not a financial advise. If you decide to invest do your due diligence and never invest more than you can afford to loose.
