Binance sends influencers on crypto trip to promote simplicity of travel in Web 3.0 era

Lauren Bullen and Jack Morris set out on global scavenger hunt to show how ‘cryptotourism’ will be simple and secure for everyone

Leading global cryptocurrency exchange Binance is working with online travel influencers to show how travel will be secure and simple in the emerging Web 3.0 world.

Lauren Bullen and Jack Morris will take part in what Binance says is the first-ever crypto-sponsored trip, dubbed ‘cryptotourism’.

It says it will demonstrate “what is possible when you forgo traditional currency and globetrot exclusively using crypto”.

Bullen and Morris will embark on a global crypto-only scavenger hunt that includes giving away $50,000 in BNB for those who want to join the movement. 

Binance global vice president of marketing, James Rothwell, said: “Cryptotourism makes global travel easier and more secure for everyone. 

“It’s also an economical choice, since there are zero fees, full transaction transparency and no country-by-country exchange rate issues. The ease of using crypto while travelling is a testament to the incredible mainstream global adoption we are starting to see.” 

Beginning on World Tourism Day (September 27, Bullen and Morris will book travel exclusively with crypto to select global hot spots, as well as all goods and services, using Binance Pay.

While on their travels they will share crypto travel tips and tricks on how to make cryptotourism a reality.

The duo will hide a Binance Gift Card in secret destinations, worth $25,000 in BNB to help fund two followers’ cryptotourism dreams. 

They will drop a series of clues via @gypsea_lust (Lauren), @jackmorris (Jack) and @binance, and once the hidden prizes have been located, new Binance accounts will be activated if necessary and $25,000 in BNB will be directly transferred to each of the two winners.
