Abstract

Blockchain technology has been initially used in the development of tourism. Based on the core characteristics of blockchain technology, summarizing its application status in the tourism industry, analysis found that this technology has made certain progress in smart tourism construction, encrypted currency payment and accommodation industry management. Combined with domestic and foreign literature studies, it is found that the main driving force for the application of tourism blockchain technology comes from the practical demand for innovation and development within the tourism industry; at the same time, it is also found that the main obstacles to the promotion of blockchain technology involve technology scalability, legal and regulatory and Safety hazards and other aspects. With the development of the sharing economy, the application of blockchain technology in tourism industry management, information management, corporate financial management, tourism sharing economy system construction, supply chain management, credit management and customer loyalty management will reshape the traditional tourism business model. Therefore, it is recommended to strengthen the training of tourism blockchain technology talents and innovative team building, introduce corresponding regulatory systems and laws and regulations, implement classified supervision on the application of tourism blockchain technology, and actively guide tourism companies to reshape their organizational structure and culture to enhance tourists Experience quality, conform to diversified tourism consumption needs, and actively respond to technological changes in the era of intelligent interconnection.
