Many crypto pundits believe the NFT craze has just started and it would only expand to become a multi-billion dollar industry on its own.

How NFTBooking Can Revolutionize Travel Industry?
NFTBOOKING becomes the first travel marketplace where NFTs are reservation vouchers for users booking. They are safe to store, can be used, or can be sold if, for some reason, you don’t want to use the reservation anymore. And even after you use it, it will remain in your wallet (if you wish to) as a memory. It doesn’t end here! An NFT booking can be more than a hotel room. It could also be an outdoor activity or even a combination of both.
The platform aims to etch users’ travel experience on a blockchain to make it unique and even valuable. The platform is currently in beta mode and aims to get listed on Coingecko and CoinmarketCap. Some of the key goals of the platform include,

Plus an extra if they are the ones that benefit from that booking and after they do a review about it. This reward is valid for users that buy with BOOK token. The creator receives 5% of the amount they paid, in BOOK, right after the purchase. And 5% extra after the review is submitted. Users that buy with Fiat currency will also get a reward, but this will be 2,5% and 2,5%
