Travel Company Travala accepts Shiba Inu (SHIB) payments
Binance-backed Travel booking platform Travala has announced it will accept meme-based cryptocurrency SHIB for bookings on its platform.
According to the announcement, SHIB beat rival Floki Inu (FLOKI) to join the original meme token Dogecoin (DOGE) on the agency’s payment system.

The announcement comes as a major endorsement for SHIB. Travala has over 2 million properties covering 90,124 destinations in 230 countries and territories on its website. Users can also start using SHIB to pay for their flight bookings on Travala.
However, despite all the positive developments, SHIB continues to underperform. The token has been down more than 30% in the past 30 days, allowing fans to buy the dip.
Only time will tell if these new developments will propel a massive SHIB rally in the months to come.
