Hotel Travel Token (HTT) White Paper
1. Executive Summary
Hotel Travel Token (HTT) is a mainnet-deployed ERC-20 token that powers a decentralized, real-use ecosystem for the travel and hotel booking industry. We wish to transform our mission into delivering borderless, low-cost, and crypto-enabled booking experiences directly to users and hoteliers. With the official launch of htttoken.com, HTT is now fully operational and available for real-world use.
This white paper outlines the project’s strategic roadmap, real-world application, token mechanics, governance structure, and long-term sustainability plan.
2. Objective of the White Paper
This document is designed to:
– Present the structure and purpose of HTT as a functional Ethereum-based token
– Outline how HTT integrates into a live booking platform
– Showcase the roadmap toward DAO governance and legal compliance (for future requirements)
– Provide transparency around tokenomics, audits, and security planning
3. Approach and Methodology
