Xeni unified over 2M hotels and 900+ airlines on the Hedera blockchain to enable programmable inventory and real‑time payments, claiming reach to enterprises with 100M+ users — a potential new channel model for large travel platforms. The move signals alternative distribution and settlement mechanics outside conventional global distribution systems. (x.com)
Xeni’s XeniPay dashboard shows the network has processed 30M+ mainnet transactions, recorded about 12.03M ecosystem bookings, settled roughly $11.29M, and hosts 408,490 wallets as live metrics on its settlement product page.
