I had planned to build a travel services business with payment using bitcoin. However, I have to stop it first because I still find problems related to government regulation in my country against bitcoin and the facilities available for the members who travel through my travel services later. But, if those two things are resolved, I will probably continue the plan and realize the wishes of bitcoin users to be able to travel with just a mobile phone.

It is possible using with your bitcoin you can travel without the wallet but i think still it depends on "where do you go?" concept.  If they accepts bitcoins as currency, because not all tourist places are not technology advanced like incredibly rural places around the world that is still in the state of traditional currency.  Still it isnpossible but i advise to research more about the place you want to travel and to prevent bad circumstances bring some of your money.

depends on where you wanna go. in southeast asia, BTC is not that mainstream so you will have to exchange to fiat for your expenses

Travelling around the world may be troublesome currently (as the service providers stop accepting bitcoins even when they previously did accept it; it is undoubtly part of the reason behind it that last month the fees where so high as 20 USD per transaction and it took forever to confirm).

But one may travel to space.  Virgin Galactic sales the seats in its spacecraft for bitcoin. After the accident they had, I am reading they recovered al right: https://www.space.com/39360-virgin-galactic-spaceshiptwo-seventh-glide-flight.html

There is possibility that in the future we can just travel around the world with just bitcoin because there is some few airlines that accept bitcoin as a mode of payment in their plane ticket and the only thing that we should be worry about is the thing after riding the plane because we need to buy things and find a home to stay and not all the stores and hotels are accepting bitcoin so it is still on the pending status for us before we can travel around.

In the present time we can't travel with out cash money it is not yes established that every where the bitcoin will be accepted but soon it will be started in the developed countries of the world and the big cities will be ready to accept bitcoin for many reasons. The use of bitcoin is increasing day by day and the people have investing a very high amount because they know the importance of this currency.

It possible if most of the countries in the word will accept bitcoin as payment for every transactions. It would be great we don't  have to worry about our cash as long as bitcoin is accepted.

I have to admit, I went on a Bitcoin urban survival for a month and only paid for food with bitcoins. It lasted about 3 weeks, and got fed up of eating junk food and Pub snacks. We need to target the smaller groceries shops at the corner, where you can buy your milk and veggies and bread with bitcoins for this to go mainstream.

It was a fun experiment, but I would not last any longer on junk food and Beer. ^lol^

Imaging this things is really amazing. You don't have to carry a lot of stuff with you. Well, I think you is still possible with the development of technology. I only doubt that this will happen during our generation. Maybe lets may bitcoin a little bit more recognized by markets to make it reality.

Here in my country we use coins.ph(btc wallet with fiat exchanger) to transfer money in BDO so we need only to bring our BDO card and mobile phone without money but for more atleast with money,I think this is digital currency that can brings it's so much conveniece here so if you think crypto will be gone in the future that's never gonna happen because we need this in life and we can earn also here like job.

Wow I said it my earlier post, but I really feel like I am back in 2015.

That was the headlines in 2015 that there was this couple who travelled around with only bitcoin... It seems there were more places accepting bitcoin then than now.

And fast forward to 2018, and again people are all hot about the possibility to travel with bitcoin.

EDIT: to be more to the point, maybe the right question to ask is why didn't it happen yet? There were 3 years in between!
Read this, actually it's been 5 years since the last experiment made by Craig and bingham http://kickasstrips.com/2013/11/the-bitcoin-travellers-around-the-world-using-online-cryptocurrency-only/ , they did it by making negotiation to convince people to accept bitcoin even for the first time some people agree to accept bitcoin as a payment tool , great story really and slow development of bitcoin merchants adoption.

I can see that happening years from now. Crypto has gain and become more and more popular these days. As soon as many places and countries adapt to cryptos that dream of ours will soon come true. I can imagine traveling without my wallet or any fiat at all.

Well I have been thinking of this possibility of expansion of Bitcoins use to such an extent that one may simply travel with hands in one's pockets! That should be level at which the ascendance of cryptocurrency should be and towards which we as a community should work.

The very fact of travelling will include more than one fields of business into its fold. Flights, eateries, pharmacies, hotels, rooms, restaurants, shopping stores, movie theatres, book stores, gyms and fitness centres, taxis and buses. This is not just a dream but a goal that we should try to reach.

I am not necessarily promoting a cashless & cardless society but cash & cards can simply be an alternative. All you may need with you is your cell phone and ID card to move all around the world. Into such a morning of sun shine, I am looking at. But gradually what turns out is such a cashless and cardless society with eases lives.

The world has become more and more cohesive and smaller. Getting knitted closely together. Like the evolution of species, cryptocurrency has evolved from various different ideas to a superior manifestation. And today though slowly but steadily we are finding the shift towards it. It is in near future that we may find the world being defined by whole new parameters of currency, economy and development to which cryptocurrency and especially bitcoin will be an integral part.  
At today,it is not possibility to just travel with bitcoin wallet because in may place bitcoin is not accepted as a mode of payment so you can't fulfill all your requirements just with only bitcoin.But you can book flights with bitcoin and some hotels accepting bitcoin that's all and all others you need your cash for the payment.
And we are still in the early stages of crypto currency so it will be possible in the future but needs time for the whole people to adopt to the situation.But I read somewhere he traveled to many countries with three bitcoins in his wallet.But I will say spending bitcoins is not a good idea just hold it until it reaches the real value of it then you will know the real potential of bitcoin.

Travelling without your real wallet could be a bad idea because the country i live where has not adopted crypto , they don't regulate it but has not also gave a positive stance on it.
Moreover not all stores in my place accept bitcoins Sad

Yes it is possible, as long as there's a good internet connection in every place that you wanted to go. Money is not a problem at all. But if the internet connection is too slow or the signals in a specific place is gonna get you crazy, so you should bring cash with you all the time. Coz you can't pay bitcoin to a tricycle driver or into a low class society. So you should bring cash. :-)


Yes true, it is possible as long as there is an internet connectiom and laptop but I would rather convert it to cash before I am going to travel so that it will be a hassle free . We don't know what might happen on the way so jts bettwr to have cash in your wallet than just bitcoin.

If all country would adopt bitcoin as payment to every transaction then it is easy to us to travel with only using bitcoin.
This is safer but also have risk and I think this will happen in the near future because more and more company and stores are accepting bitcoin as payment.
