I've never heard of Travala before, but given the current levels of utilization of cryptocurrencies, any kind of mainstream adoption is a very good news. I had to look up what the heck was LoafWallet, and it turned out LoafWallet was a mobile friendly wallet built by the Litecoin foundation. Never heard of it either, I'm using the good old Electrum for LTC. Keeping the fingers crossed that this partnership will work out for both parties well and that more and more people will find their way into the crypto sphere.

Never heard of Travala. I know Booking, Hotels, Agoda, Expedia, Tripadvisor, Kayak. The site accepts many cryptocurrencies though, not only LTC.

Nice to see mainstream businesses start accepting cryptocurrencies :)

What is the good news about this news you are giving to us, the truth is that litecoin itself is more popular than that site you just mentioned because I have never heard of them before until you mentioned them today, so is the news a good thing for litecoin or is it a good thing for travala, or are you just trying to shill the project so that we good become familiar with it, I have a lot of things running in my mind currently and I believe one of it is the answer.

I am not disputing the fact that he might be shilling travela to us, but you can’t say they won’t still make impact on litecoin. I know litecoin is a big project, but of what use are they when they don’t have users, what is litecoin without projects like this?These types of projects are what will expose the public out there to litecoin and enforce people to use litecoin for payment of their bookings.

I really see it as great news, because it is still the first I will be seeing now, as regards that industry. If other coins can really be doing this and partnering with already existing projects, then the crypto space will become great again, instead of having all these shitcoins, imagine that travela had come up with their own coin again, we would have had another duplication of project.

This is what I've been talking about and hoping for ,for litecoin to grow further they have to implement some kind of usability ,product maybe and here we are, nice move LTC teams nice move ,I hope we see more in near future at least ,if altcoins are getting this type of treatment then it will be overall good
