[PRESS RELEASE – Singapore, Singapore, October 1st, 2026]
With around 16% of AVA’s circulating supply already locked, the AVA Smart Program introduces new lock levels as part of a wider overhaul of AVA’s tokenomics.
The AVA Foundation and Travala today announced new standard lock levels for the AVA Smart Program, alongside a long-term goal of 30% of AVA’s circulating supply locked.
The AVA Smart Program—Travala’s crypto loyalty program—has more than 170,000 members, up 110% year on year as of August. Approximately 12.1 million AVA is now locked across the program and AVA+ Rewards, representing around 16% of the token’s circulating supply.
Travala, a crypto-native travel platform, has more than 1.87 million monthly active users and generated over $113 million in gross revenue in 2025. It sees more than 17,000 room nights, flights, car rentals, and activities booked every month.
From no earlier than 1 November 2026, new Smart memberships will require double the current AVA lock for every tier. Existing members keep their current requirements while their membership remains active, and can choose to move to the new levels after implementation to increase the AVA eligible for the AVA Smart Bonus. AVA Smart Bonus amounts remain 15% per year for Steel to Platinum and 20% for Diamond, subject to the program rules.
If existing members move to the new levels, locked AVA would reach approximately 20 million, around 27% of circulating supply. Continued growth in AVA+ Rewards adoption would take that toward the long-term goal of 30%.
Steve Hipwell, AVA Foundation Lead Contributor, said: “Having 16% of AVA’s circulating supply locked within a travel loyalty program demonstrates genuine real-world utility. The new lock levels reward our existing members for being early, and give the whole community a clear long-term goal of 30% of circulating supply locked.”
Juan Otero, Travala CEO, said: “More than 170,000 travellers are now part of the AVA Smart Program, and those who lock AVA get more from every trip they book with us. This update rewards everyone who has already made that commitment and gives our most loyal members the option to go further.”
The update follows last week’s launch of the AVA Permanent Strategic Reserve, under which Travala matches the AVA Foundation’s monthly open-market buybacks, doubling buyback volume. Travala’s matched tokens are held in a multisig reserve it has committed never to sell or transfer. In September, the two buybacks together repurchased 739,762 AVA, and more than 4.8 million AVA has been repurchased through the Foundation’s program to date.

AVA tokenises the concept of loyalty reward programs using blockchain technology, bringing web3 to traditional loyalty models. For more information, users can visit www.avafoundation.org.

BetFury, a leading crypto casino, offers BetFury Futures – a crypto derivatives product built into the ecosystem with up to a x1000 multiplier. It provides a unique combination of top-volume Bitcoin trading and the proprietary FuryWaves game tool. This setup merges traditional crypto markets with in-house gaming, serving both traders and players on a single venue.
An x1000 Multiplier and No Order-book Problems
Such a high multiplier is a clear break from standard exchanges. In fact, almost all centralized exchanges apply a 100x to 125x ceiling to even their most liquid contracts. What makes a high multiplier in BetFury Futures usable is the underlying execution model, which removes the frictions traders usually accept on a traditional order book:
Zero slippage. Traditional exchanges shift prices against you on large orders. BetFury keeps entry and exit prices identical regardless of trade size.
Guaranteed fills. Every single trade executes instantly at your exact stated price. This eliminates wait queues and the risk of unfulfilled orders.
Flexible fees. Traders can choose between a standard flat fee or a profit-only fee model. Under the profit model, losing or break-even trades pay no commission.
Paired with the x1000 multiplier, this execution model is what drives the figures to the top of the leaderboard. A confirmed BTC trade recently returned roughly 10% ROI, while FuryWaves positions have reached the 3.9% to 4.0% range. Traders can also set Take Profit and Stop Loss levels, or hold long and short positions on the same asset simultaneously.
How Many Assets Do BetFury Futures Include?
BetFury Futures lists eight major cryptocurrencies (BTC, ETH, BNB, XRP, DOGE, SOL, BCH, and ADA) alongside FuryWaves, a proprietary tool found nowhere else. The prices of FuryWaves come from a randomizer, reset to $1,000 every 24 hours at 00:00 UTC, and swing by an average of about 250%, peaking near +290%. It follows the same provably fair logic as hash-based game rounds: every outcome is generated in advance and cannot be altered by the platform.
In addition, new listings are fast. An asset already available elsewhere on BetFury reaches the Futures platform in about 30 seconds, while a brand-new coin takes just a few hours.
The volume rankings over the last three months (Bitcoin, FuryWaves, BNB, Ethereum, and Dogecoin) confirm the dual appeal of the platform. The product draws real-asset traders and game-tool players in roughly equal measure, which separates it from a pure crypto exchange.
“The exchanges built their futures around the order book, and traders inherited its problems: slippage, queues, fills that never land,” said the CPO of BetFury. “We rebuilt the product without that baggage. A fixed price, a guaranteed fill, and the option to pay a fee only when you win. That is what futures should have been from the start.”
One Balance Across Trading, Staking, and Gaming
Futures sits directly inside BetFury’s wider crypto toolset, using the exact same account as everything else. Users can seamlessly move capital between Futures, Crypto Staking (with up to 60% APR), and Crypto Swap without leaving the ecosystem. This allows them to route returns right back into trading or gaming. It provides a unified ecosystem where a single balance works across markets, staking, and play.
