Kaleo Forecasts 40% Price Pump For Floki; BONK and Meme Moguls Hits New All-time High

Total Media

A pseudonymous crypto analyst known as @CryptoKaleo on X has predicted that Floki will rise 40%. Meanwhile, BONK and Meme Moguls have set a new price record. Analysts have also predicted that the value of Meme Moguls will rise by 100x, making it among the top altcoins to watch. Let’s see why these tokens are up. >> Can You Predict The Next 1000x Meme Coin? Become A Meme Mogul Today << Can Floki (FLOKI) Rally 40%? On Wednesday, a pseudonymous cryptocurrency analyst, Kaleo, @CryptoKaleo, predicted a 40% surge for Floki, a meme coin. Kaleo compared Floki and a meme coin based on Solana called BONK. The analyst noticed a consistent pattern in Floki’s recent price changes. To emphasize the similarities, Kaleo provided a short-term technical analysis comparing the breakout models of BONK and Floki. According to them, “the structural similarities are quite evident. A 40% increase in Floki price would not be surprising, considering it would still be 20% below its all-time high.” According to data from CoinMarketCap, the Floki price has jumped 25.6% on the 7-day chart from $0.00003233 to $0.00004431. BONK (BONK) Overtakes FlokI Inu’s Market Cap BONK (BONK), a dog-themed cryptocurrency token built on the Solana blockchain, has experienced tremendous growth. It currently holds a position among the top three “dog-themed coins” based on market cap. As of December 8, data from CoinMarketCap showed that BONK has a market cap of $753 million. Floki, on the other hand, has a market cap of $385 million. The token’s trading volume has seen double-digit gains in the past week. The price of BONK has seen growth of 956.0% in the previous month, a 1,800% surge from late October to late November. On the weekly chart, the price of Bonk has soared 203.8%, reaching a new all-time high of $0.00001251 on December 8. BONK’s notable success is due to the resurgence of its parent network, Solana. The token has recovered in 2023 from its 2022 crisis. Meme Moguls (MGLS) Does Not Depend On Hype, Unlike Floki and BONK Meme Moguls (MGLS) has positioned itself as the best crypto investment by merging memecoins and play-to-earn gaming into a single platform. Unlike most memecoins, MGLS derives its value from real-world uses rather than relying solely on hype. It serves as both an in-game currency and a governance token within the Meme Moguls ecosystem. Within the ecosystem, community members and friends can also arrange tournaments on the Meme Moguls platform and engage in simulated investment games. These tournaments can range from casual fun to featuring prize pools and entry fees, fostering collaboration among users while providing opportunities to win prizes and rewards. This aspect positions Meme Moguls as the preferred choice for those seeking entertainment and potential rewards, often dubbed the best crypto investment. This strategic approach is anticipated to drive demand for Meme Moguls’ native token, MGLS, even higher. Meme Moguls seamlessly incorporates NFTs into its ecosystem. As a result, users can purchase and sell rare NFT characters that enhance trading capabilities and improve trading conditions. Importantly, the rarer the NFT, the more favorable the conditions, including leverage and spreads. The value of the MGLS token currently stands at $0.0021. Market experts have projected a 100x price increase during the presale. Conclusion In summary, the top altcoins to watch out for more gains are Floki, BONK, and Meme Moguls. However, Meme Moguls is the only meme coin with utility on the list. This has fueled the increased interest in the project.

Crypto Analyst Ali Martinez Makes a Bullish Cardano Price Prediction; Everlodge To Combine AI Technology With Real Estate Investment

Total Media

Recently, the prominent crypto analyst Ali Martinez made a bullish Cardano (ADA) price prediction that has excited the crypto community. Simultaneously, Everlodge (ELDG) - a new DeFi project, announced plans to integrate cutting-edge AI technology into its ecosystem. Because of this, many experts now believe that this rising presale star (now in Stage 8) can experience a 3,000% value growth in 2024. Keep on reading as we go over these developments in greater detail. How High Can Cardano Go? Ali Martinez's optimistic prediction has placed Cardano (ADA) in the spotlight, forecasting a potential surge in its value. Over the past month, the Cardano price has increased from $0.38 on November 9 to $0.62 on December 9. According to Martinez, Cardano may soar to $0.75 before the end of 2023. The Cardano crypto technical analysis backs this claim as it trades above its 100 and 200-day EMAs. Moreover, this altcoin has experienced 17 green trading days out of the last 30. This is a noteworthy 57%, bolstered by a low price volatility of 7.31% during that time. If Cardano can maintain this uptrend, reaching $0.75 before the year ends may be plausible. That is why Cardano is a good altcoin to watch at the moment. Everlodge (ELDG): One Of The Best Crypto Coins The global hospitality industry was valued at $4.5T in 2022, and Everlodge (ELDG) plans to dominate it with its unique platform. It will create the first property marketplace to mint real-world properties into NFTs and then fractionalize them. As a result, you may become a fractional owner of a New York hotel on the blockchain and join the world's top 1% for a low price. The crypto community is also excited about Everlodge's AI integration. Notably, this AI-driven tool will monitor and scan property prices all over the globe. Using predictive algorithms can help you discover undervalued markets that could skyrocket soon. For example, if you used the tool two years ago, it would have pointed to Dubai as the next real estate hotspot. All this is powered by the ELDG native token, which is now in Stage 8 of its presale, costing only $0.027. Millions of tokens have been sold in just a few months as investors want to grab them before their value surges. With early buyers gaining 170% ROI, this fear is well-warranted. Holding it will also give you benefits such as discounts or passive income via staking. With Everlodge's innovation, it may become a fan-favorite for millions of people. Therefore, experts remain bullish as they forecast a surge to $0.038 before the presale ends. History shows us that a Tier-1 CEX listing could cause a 30x value growth for ELDG when it launches. With a limited-time 10% deposit bonus, those purchasing this DeFi token are now positioning themselves for tremendous returns. An Era of Anticipated Growth and Innovation As the crypto community anticipates the potential surge in Cardano's value fueled by Ali Martinez's prediction, Everlodge's integration of AI technology adds a layer of sophistication to real estate investment. It will add to your investment experience while also helping your decision-making. Thanks to its lower market cap of $14M, Everlodge may surpass Cardano, making it the best crypto to invest in.

Galaxy Fox's Stage 3 is Almost Sold-Out. Here's Why It’s So Hot

RoundHouse Media

Watching for boisterous early movers proved a reliable strategy for turning modest sums into huge crypto stacks in 2017 and 2021. Luckily for investors, 2024 will offer a repeat of the pattern, and finding these small-cap gems before they launch is a one-way ticket to netting 1000X returns in this cycle. Galaxy Fox ’s ( $GFOX ) stage 3 is about to sell out. Could it be one of these early movers and a top crypto to buy in 2023? Here’s what we know. Galaxy Fox ($GFOX): A New Generation of P2E Galaxy Fox is leading the next generation of play-to-earn tokens, and this unique hybrid has risen rapidly, establishing itself as a top crypto to invest in before the 2024 GameFi-driven bull market. One of the only tokens uniquely positioned to enjoy two narratives. Galaxy Fox’s viral aesthetic, micro-cap, and deflationary tokenomics put it in the memecoin race, and its runner game puts it on the GameFi stage. The team has purposely enhanced the protocol's viral nature, allowing the possibility of it mooning overnight. A highly novel introduction from Galaxy Fox is a protocol-level marketing budget. Marketing is the key component of success in a bull. Galaxy Fox routing 2% of buy and sell taxes to the protocol Treasury- responsible for funding community initiatives and marketing efforts- outlines a constant revenue stream for ecosystem expansion. Additionally, revenue generated by real-world merchandise feeds the Treasury. As marketing attracts more users, the Treasury will accrue greater revenue, and further efforts will draw in new users. This is how Galaxy Fox activates a powerful flywheel for acquiring users. This business sense naturally makes $GFOX one of the best cryptocurrencies to buy for people who understand marketing dynamics and the importance of new users. All users in the Galaxy Fox ecosystem can compete in its Web3 runner game. Those skilled enough to end the season in the top 20% will earn prizes exchangeable for $GFOX tokens- a top crypto to buy in 2023 for any users confident in their gaming abilities. But Galaxy Fox offers more earning opportunities and moves away from the classic play-to-earn model, which only rewards a small percentage of skilled players. Instead, everybody staking $GFOX earns. Investors earn residual income via Stargate – the protocol’s staking module. Stargate accrues 2% of all ecosystem transactions and distributes these among stakers. Using taxes as opposed to emissions means these rewards have no theoretical cap and will grow in tandem as the ecosystem expands. $GFOX Full Scale Rush Into Stage 3 Galaxy Fox has blitzed past $750,000 and already entered stage 3. Those lucky enough to buy during stage 1 have already enjoyed two price increases. Given its current pace, investors who want to lock in the remaining seven price increases will have to move fast. The window of opportunity steadily closes- the days when investors can buy discounted $GFOX are numbered. Closing Thoughts: Move Fast and Securing Upside Crypto has always rewarded investors who move fast, take risks, and try new things. Galaxy Fox’s genre-bending approach to product development- releasing a memecoin/ P2E hybrid- makes it one of this year’s most exciting propositions. And its sub $1 million market cap looks primed to fly in the current market environment. Participate in the presale today and enjoy all the incoming staggered price increases. There is no telling how high $GFOX can soar, and entering price discovery in current market conditions could see prolonged vertical growth. Discover why analysts call $GFOX a top crypto to buy in 2023 and get an allocation before the GameFi bull market begins. Learn more about $GFOX here: Visit Galaxy Fox Presale | Join the Community Memecoin market is saturated with silly dog coin knock-offs and dodgy Pepe joke coins. What was once a thriving and fun-filled space has lately devolved into a wasteland of coins that lack real utility or serious development – or even something just to make you laugh, like OG memcoins of the past Doge and Shiba Inu once inspired.

Eat It, Drink It? Track It - Thrive Through the Holiday Season: Don't Wait for January to Begin Calorie Tracking

YourUpdateTV

The holiday season is upon us, and with it comes the temptation to put off our health goals until the new year. Recently, Registered Dietician, Maya Feller, conducted a satellite media tour to share some easy tips and tricks to enjoy the holiday cheer while sticking to healthy habits. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/b_Kh_o3jNI4 Holiday gatherings typically revolve around food and drink, and now it’s easier to stay on track with your health goals during the holidays while still partaking in all the fun. Tracking your food and drink intake with the free MyFitnessPal app is an easy way to keep an eye on how you’re tracking against your goals. How To Have a Happy and Healthy Holiday Season Tracking involves both quantity (calories) and quality (macros, which include protein, fat, and carbs) of what you eat. It can be difficult to make sure you are getting enough protein and fiber without tracking with a tool, like MyFitnessPal. MyFitnessPal’s food database contains over 18 million foods, so you’ll be able to find nutrition insights on whatever holiday treat you’re looking forward to eating. Go one-for-one. Consider matching a glass of water for each cocktail you enjoy. Alcohol, along with added sugars found in cocktails, can add up quickly - leading to dehydration, changes in blood sugar, and unwanted morning-after headaches if you’re not careful. Tracking with MyFitnessPal can provide insights into how much added sugar you’re eating - and drinking. Give yourself some grace; enjoying celebration meals does not mean you need to go into a cycle of restricting food intake and over-exercising as compensation. The foundation of your health is built on routines and what you do the majority of the time. Nourish your body throughout the day to take the charge out of the celebratory meal. Add plants (fruits and veggies) that are accessible, affordable, culturally relevant, and tasty to your routine. Adding these foods increases the nutrient density of your meals. If you want to finish the year off strong, MyFitnessPal can provide inspiration on making small daily changes that add up to big improvements over time. Whether inspiration for new recipes, or providing healthier holiday alternatives, the app is like having a nutritionist and support community in the palm of your hand, plus the insights can be very eye-opening.

This year, OPPO was invited to join the COP28 Leadership Interviews, featuring a series of discussions among pioneers and business leaders on how collective action across various industries can contribute to a positive impact for the future. As an exclusive representative from telecommunication industry, OPPO shares its sustainability initiatives through innovation. To further support innovation in greening, OPPO also invites Bluepha Co., Ltd, one of the global winners of the 2023 OPPO Inspiration Challenge to showcase its green material as a substitute for plastic to a global audience at the exhibition area during the COP28.

Bitcoin Is Pumping, The Meme Season Is The Next, Have You Begun Accumulating These Cryptos?

Total Media

Bitcoin is currently on a bull run. Its value surged throughout November, taking Bitcoin to $43,000, its highest value in 2023. Now, as the crypto market follows, the memecoin market is expected to boom. Market analysts have their focus on three cryptocurrencies in particular: Pepe, Floki, and an exciting new project, Meme Moguls. Each project is expected to surge throughout December, causing excitement throughout the market as investors add each to their portfolios. >> Can You Predict The Next 1000x Meme Coin? Become A Meme Mogul Today << Pepe Price Hits A New Quarterly High Pepe hit the crypto scene by storm in May 2023. It quickly became the number one trending memecoin, though the hype around Pepe died as memecoin actively slowed. Nonetheless, Pepe experienced an exceptional month in November and continues to rise with an additional 38.82% price pump over the last week. This pump was triggered by a Binance announcement. While previously Pepe had little utility, Binance announced that Pepe can now be used as collateral on its platform. Investors will be rewarded with 10 million Pepe for doing this, which has triggered an additional surge in Pepe’s price and trading volume. Analysts are now speculating as to how high Pepe could go before the end of 2023. Many predict that a 20x gain could be possible during the current bull run, while others suggest that a 5x return is more realistic. Will Floki Hit An Annual High In December? Floki experienced its best month of 2023 in October, after which many experts believed the memecoin would crash. However, Floki has continued to thrive. Its value increased by 29.6% in November, and its daily trading volume has passed $100 million for several consecutive days. In addition to its successful price increase, Floki’s Head of Operations, known as B, also made an announcement about Valhalla, the project's play-to-earn NFT metaverse game. B stated that after careful market analysis, Floki’s Valhalla will be launched during perfect market conditions. While this gives no real date, this news created hype throughout the Floki community, and the project value increased to $0.00004 just 24 hours after the announcement. Investors are now accumulating Floki tokens at exceptional rates, with many predicting that Floki could become a top memecoin in 2024. Could Meme Moguls Rival Pepe And Floki? As the memecoin market starts to pump, investors believe that Meme Moguls could be the moonshot token everyone’s been waiting for. Unlike most memecoins, Meme Moguls offers fantastic utility. It introduces an innovative game meticulously designed to help users build their investment knowledge. The Meme Moguls game will introduce simulated investing, in which users will be given $100,000 in virtual currency. This currency can be used to test trading strategies, compete in games, and earn cash prizes and meme rewards. To create a more realistic investing experience, users can only invest 20% of their portfolio at once. Another unique element of Meme Moguls is its focus on community. Meme Moguls takes the meme community one step further with its own bustling community, as well as games where players can compete with one another. If this wasn’t enough to get investors excited, the Meme Moguls token, $MGLS, will act as both an in-game currency and governance token, giving it greater utility than most memecoins in circulation. With its presale set to begin soon, investors will be able to purchase $MGLS at just $0.0019, a huge bargain considering its potential. Analysts speculate that Meme Moguls could increase 100x in its first year alone, quickly outperforming current memecoins like Pepe and Floki.

Swiss Asset Manager Pando Asset Files for Bitcoin ETF, Next 10x Coins – Shiba Inu, Pepe and Everlodge

Total Media

Pando Asset AG, a digital asset management firm based in Switzerland, last week became the latest issuer to submit an application to the SEC with the objective of launching an exchange-traded fund (ETF) tied to spot Bitcoin prices. As a result, Pando Asset is now the 13th company attempting to get a share of what the crypto world believes is a multi-billion dollar product based on SEC filings. Shiba Inu (SHIB), Pepe (PEPE), and Everlodge (ELDG) are now seen as the next cryptocurrencies that can climb 10x or more in value. To see which one can surge the most during the upcoming months, we will go over all of them individually. By the end, we will see which is the best crypto to invest in. Shiba Inu (SHIB) Climbs 17.3% – Is $0.000017 Possible? Shiba Inu (SHIB) has seen an increase in both its value and its trading volume, which can positively impact its future growth potential. If the buying volume increases and the price continues to trade in the narrow range, it could be an indication of the presence of whales that are slowly accumulating the Shiba Inu crypto. SHIB managed to climb above the EMA, which has boosted investor confidence. It also showcases that the short-term trend has reversed upwards. During the past week, the Shiba Inu price traded between $0.00000816 on the low end and $0.00001032 on the high end, leading to a total climb of 17.3%. According to the latest on-chart metrics, the Shiba Inu price prediction places it at $0.000017 by the end of 2024. Pepe (PEPE) To Spike to $0.000003 Following Latest Surge Pepe (PEPE) became one of the most popular meme coins following its launch, and since then has seen a significant upswing in its value. The project was originally created by Matt Furie and is a tribute to the Pepe the Frog internet meme. Since its launch, the crypto has become a main contender to other notable meme coins, like DOGE, SHIB, and FLOKI. During the past week, Pepe increased in value by 35%. According to its on-chart data, it can initiate a bullish rally, especially as it managed to climb from $0.00000106 to a maximum value of $0.00000164. Analysts are now bullish on its future, and based on the Pepe price prediction, it can climb to $0.000003 by the end of 2024. Everlodge (ELDG) Introduces AI Predictions in Real Estate Everlodge (ELDG) is picking up a lot of attention with its crypto ICO as it introduces blockchain technology into the real estate market in order to make it as accessible as possible to anyone. Traditionally, the industry faced several issues, from a lack of liquidity to a lack of transparency and high costs of entry. By minting properties as NFTs and then fractionalizing them, Everlodge will streamline this process, make it far more affordable, and provide the market with higher liquidity. If a property is worth millions of dollars, it can be split into smaller pieces through the fractionalization process, where each piece is worth just $100. This way, anyone can begin buying fractions of properties and diversify their holdings with ease. As a result, Everlodge is seen as one the top DeFi projects. There will also be a Rewards Club where users get free nightly stays that can also be resold. If they buy fractions of rental properties, they can get passive income every time the properties are rented out. The native crypto can also be staked, but it is also used for governance within the broader ecosystem. Another stand-out feature for Everlodge is its integration of AI tools. These can monitor and scan global property markets across all territories. The tool can be a predictor for undervalued markets and help investors find the best locations to buy fractional properties before they explode in value, making it the best crypto to invest in. Summary Aside from Shiba Inu and Pepe, Everlodge is getting the most attention due to its unique ecosystem offering. During Stage 7 of the presale, the ELDG crypto is offered at just $0.025. During the upcoming stages, analysts project a climb of 10x in value, with an eventual 100x climb following its launch and listing on Tier-1 exchanges.
