When thinking about decentralization in travel, I think it's very important to realize that these are not changes happening on top of the existing infrastructure and applications stack, but they are happening below. The precise region is the layer between the Internet and the applications.If we want to use a metaphor, we are not waiting for the meteorite to fall on earth.
