Bhutan has launched the world's first national-level crypto tourism payment system, in partnership with Binance Pay and DK Bank. Tourists can now pay for nearly everything, from flights to food, using over 100 cryptocurrencies like BTC, BNB, and USDC.

Payments are made via QR codes through the Binance app, with DK Bank converting crypto into Bhutan's local currency instantly.

The new system offers benefits beyond convenience. Small businesses, especially in remote areas, can now accept crypto payments with just a smartphone. Local vendors, who previously lacked card payment infrastructure, now have new opportunities thanks to the system.

By eliminating cross-border payment issues, zero gas fees, and not relying on international card networks, the system makes transactions seamless. It sets a global precedent, potentially encouraging other countries to adopt similar models for tourism.

The Binance Pay Bhutan partnership is already making waves in the tourism sector, showing how crypto can connect cultures and improve travel experiences. Binance's growing use case in tourism continues to build confidence in its token.
