Bitcoin's Price Movement Falls Short Of FLOKI's Surge. What's In Store For The Upcoming Meme Coin Raboo?

Total Media

The current 2024 cycle has experienced wild and crazy price rallies from cryptocurrencies of most sectors. Specifically, meme coins, but also AI, social Fi, and utility tokens. What does that mean for meme tokens such as FLOKI and Raboo ($RABT) an AI powered meme coin at the intersection of SocialFi, MemeFi and AI? Bitcoin: Post Halving Fever or Crypto Winter? For the past few months, Bitcoin has surged up to 90% YTD - a strong signal of its bullish momentum. Nonetheless, that's still slower than the crypto market average - with meme coins such as FLOKI rallying over 500%. Historically, post halving season, Bitcoin surges to a parabolic bull run yet in this year, despite almost a month since halving, Bitcoin ranges between $60K -$72K. Is it possible the halving flow has changed? Or is the increase in meme coins disrupting the Bitcoins rhythm. This recent change has investors worried with mixed reactions. Some predict that for the next few weeks/ months the currency could go lower. Alternatively, some claim the bottom is in and it's up only from here. Their jury is that below $60K the mining rates become unsustainable for miners hence can't go below that. The current bearishness could be just a slight pullback. Or it could be a summer winter. After all, most traders agree the summer season doesn't offer good trading opportunities. It's also possible this is due to sucked out liquidity going to meme coins. Currently, traders and investors are aware that strong meme coins such as FLOKI and Dogecoin influence market movements and too much liquidity injected into them is unhealthy for the overall situation. Therefore, while indeed Bitcoin is painfully slow and confusing at the moment, it'll be back and strong when, once again, the meme coins allure fades. Is FLOKI the New Dog of Memes or just a Fad? As one of the major meme coins on the market, FLOKI had a rally of over 500% since the start of the year. This propelled FLOKI into the top 5 largest meme coins and makes it entirely enticing to investors who are always seeking astronomical gains from the crypto trenches. The current world of alt coins shows that the Meme coins sector is one of the fastest growing and most promising for future investors to reap big for small capital. As such, FLOKI is one of the stronger meme coins in this bull cycle and should be a good investment. Better yet, new meme coins such as Raboo offer the best returns on investment. Is this rally good for Raboo? As a new cryptocurrency going mainnet in a bull cycle, $RABT - is a promising token to capture the hearts of crypto investors as it's everything going well for the current market. Raboo is a play to earn token that is at the intersection of meme coins, AI and social Fi. It's also a utility token as users earn cryptocurrency by interacting with the token. The more one is active and scales through levels, the more they earn. As a community oriented platform, Raboo also offers token merchandise and presale buyers also get to receive customized NFTs. The token's smart contracts are secured by SolidProof - a leading Blockchain security company based in Germany. Its base starting price was $0.003 and continues to grow as current presale price is $0.0042. This is a promising token, with experts projecting an increase almost 250% during pre-sale season. Conclusion In the end, there's no cause to worry over Bitcoin, and we can expect positive returns from the crypto markets. Raboo, as a new token that has raised over $1.5M during their presale, is a good investment that could offer over 100x returns especially for presale buyers. Expert analysts predict that it could surge to over 10,000% once the token launches on major exchanges.

Ethereum Steams Ahead Market Volatility, GameStop Regains Attention, and Raboo Races Through Presale

Total Media

Ethereum has been one of the few coins to maintain an impressive bullish performance in recent weeks despite the likes of GameStop experiencing price swings. In the midst of these price movements, Raboo ($RABT) has caught the eye of several investors. This innovative project is currently in its red-hot presale coin phase and is expected to produce 100x in 2024. Read on to find out more: Ethereum on a Rollercoaster Ride: Price Swings Over the previous several days, Ethereum's price has displayed an erratic tendency. Thanks to investor excitement about the upcoming Ethereum 2.0 upgrade and the continued activity in the NFT and DeFi sectors, Ethereum had a fantastic start to the week, breaching beyond the $3,920 barrier. But this impetus turned out to be fleeting. After coming under selling pressure, Ethereum had a drop and fell below $3,800 once more. Due to the $3,900 resistance level holding strong, investors may have been taking profits, or attitude may have changed. There were some positive aspects to the week. Earlier today, Ethereum made another effort at a rally, momentarily hitting $3,900. The possibility for more increase was indicated by this rise, but selling pressure returned. Currently, Ethereum is undergoing a consolidation phase, hovering around the $3,842 mark which is still an impressive 16% increase in the last 30 days. GameStop Token (GME) Price Takes Massive Drip After Brief Spike The price of the GameStop token (GME) has seen a significant decline in recent days, following a brief surge earlier this week. The GameStop token peaked on May 20, 2024, at $0.0064, most likely due to a resurgence of interest in meme stocks. In comparison to its pricing earlier in the month, this resulted in a little increase. Sadly, this encouraging trend fizzled out quickly. The price of the GameStop token started to fall steadily and but has managed to rebound by 9% in only the last day. GameStop is now trading for about $0.004507 as of May 28, a sharp 58% drop from its peak of $0.02 on May 15. For investors looking for a long-term rise, the recent price decline has become a setback. Whether the token can regain its earlier momentum is hard to tell which has pushed investors to focus on other fruitful projects. Investors Flock to Raboo: AI-Backed Meme Coin with 100x Potential While many coins like GameStop seem to be in their bearish phase, analysts are bullish on Raboo with many predicting a staggering 10,000% growth potential. Some experts anticipate a staggering 233% growth during the presale, which has already surpassed $1.4 million. Raboo's ambitious goal is to crack the top 20 cryptocurrencies by market cap, potentially challenging established meme coin giants like Shiba Inu and Dogecoin. The platform also plans exclusive NFTs and merchandise, offering additional revenue streams and exciting opportunities for holders. For those seeking passive income, Raboo will offer staking options with attractive rewards. Currently in its third stage of token presale, Raboo is attracting attention with its unique features. One of the highlights is Rabooscan, an AI tool that scours social media platforms for the hottest memes, ensuring only high-quality content gets promoted. As Bloomberg Intelligence highlights, "the generative AI market is poised to explode, growing to $1.3 trillion over the next 10 years." Raboo is well positioned to capitalize on this burgeoning market. Their roadmap also includes contests where token holders can win rewards for their creative skills with AI-generated memes. The presale price sits at a mere $0.0042 which makes it an attractive entry point for early adopters. Conclusion Only time will tell if Raboo can live up to the hype. However, its innovative blend of AI, SocialFi, and a strong focus on community building sets it apart from the crowd. With its presale price exceeding $1.4 million and a passionate following, Raboo is definitely a project to watch. Its presale has generated a lot of frenzy and hype as several investor remain keen to invest early in this project. You can learn more about the Raboo presale here.

Web 3.0 Could Revolutionize The Future Of Healthcare – Here's How

Benzinga

By Kyle Anthony The healthcare industry is at a pivotal moment, even as it faces numerous challenges, such as data fragmentation, security concerns and inefficiencies in patient care. The advent of Web 3.0 offers a promising solution to these issues by introducing a more connected, intelligent and secure framework for managing healthcare data and services. Companies like Elevate Health and Wellness are set on demonstrating the many advantages Web 3.0 brings through their efforts. Understanding Web 3.0 To understand how Web 3.0 can change the healthcare industry, it’s important to appreciate what it offers. Web 3.0, often called the "decentralized web," aims to create a more intelligent, connected and open Internet, addressing many limitations and challenges in the current Web 2.0 era – which is dominated by centralized platforms and services. Web 3.0 will utilize blockchain technology and decentralized networks, where data and applications are distributed across a network of nodes rather than controlled by a single entity. The distributed nature of Web 3.0 provides individuals with greater ownership of their information and the ability to utilize that information in a more secure and versatile manner. Given Web 3.0's capabilities, it has significant potential in multiple areas. Below are three ways in which it can reshape the healthcare industry. Data Management And Patient Care Web 3.0 brings transformative potential to the healthcare sector, particularly in managing healthcare data records. The current Web 2.0 infrastructure struggles with security vulnerabilities and inefficient data management. By leveraging decentralized technologies such as blockchain, enhanced semantic capabilities and advanced privacy measures, Web 3.0 aims to address the current challenges of data fragmentation, security, and accessibility. From a patient standpoint, Web 3.0 allows patients to control and own their healthcare information. Blockchain-based personal health records (PHRs) allow patients to manage access permissions, ensuring their data is shared only with authorized parties. This can improve the healthcare experience, as healthcare practitioners will have a holistic view of a patient's health, leading to better diagnosis and treatment plans. Community-Based Healthcare Support The number of individuals suffering from mental health issues has risen in recent years, and how the current healthcare industrial complex supports them may, at times, be inadequate. Supported by both the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration and the Centers for Disease Control, peer support has emerged as an evidence-based approach to promote recovery from both mental and substance use disorders. Individuals with lived experience are critical to this model, providing peer support based on their expertise in managing their own conditions while also receiving community support in return. By implementing Web 3.0 in peer support services, individuals can form a community around specific mental health issues and receive ongoing support from specialized medical personnel and individuals who have had similar experiences and found ways to cope successfully – in essence, using technology to treat individuals empathetically and holistically as they navigate their mental health journey. Implementing blockchain technology to increase mental health services for those who need it instantly at both outpatient and inpatient levels is part of Elevate Health and Wellness’ vision. It is a dual-licensed outpatient clinic specializing in mental health and addiction treatment for adolescents and adults. Tentatively launching in 2026, the company says its token will be used to increase awareness, build a stronger supportive community and connect individuals with mental health disorders and addiction with therapists and psychiatrists instantly. Blockchain-based software will also allow for the creation of smart insurance contracts (i.e., contracts that are self-executing, in which the terms of the agreement are directly written into lines of code) for mental health and wellness to provide an alternative to conventional insurance. In speaking with Dr. Mohamed Elsamra, the medical director at Elevate Health, about the clinic’s blockchain initiative, he stated, “With Web3 technology, we can provide cheaper and faster access to mental health care, and this will reduce insurance premiums people pay for coverage. We should provide a cheaper alternative than the current conventional insurance system.” Combating Drug Counterfeiting Counterfeit drugs pose serious threats to patient safety and undermine trust in healthcare systems. This was especially highlighted in the wake of counterfeits of the weight-loss drug GLP-1 found their way into markets around the world, leading the FDA to issue a warning about the health risks involved. Traditional methods of tracking and verifying pharmaceuticals are often inadequate due to their susceptibility to tampering and fraud. Web 3.0 introduces a decentralized, secure and intelligent Internet infrastructure that has the potential to transform drug supply chain management. By utilizing blockchain technology, stakeholders can track a drug’s journey from production to the point of sale. This end-to-end traceability helps in verifying the authenticity of pharmaceuticals and identifying counterfeit products quickly. Furthermore, smart contracts will ensure compliance and reduce the risk of fraud in the supply chain. Web 3.0 holds significant promise in the fight against drug counterfeiting by enhancing the transparency, security, and efficiency of pharmaceutical supply chains. Through blockchain technology, stakeholders can achieve unprecedented levels of traceability and authenticity verification in the production and distribution of drugs to the general public. The Digital Future Of Healthcare A study published in BMJ Journals predicted,”It is possible that very soon, we will see a sprawling mental health space in Web 3.0 that may revolutionize the mental health field.” Web 3.0 holds the potential to transform healthcare by addressing many of the current system's inefficiencies and challenges. Through decentralized networks, intelligent data interpretation, and enhanced privacy and security measures, Web 3.0 can create a more patient-centric and efficient healthcare system for the benefit of all – and companies like Elevate Health and Wellness are fully prepared to help stakeholders make the most of it.

Shedding Light on Cystic Fibrosis Awareness Month

YourUpdateTV

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a rare, progressive, and genetic disease that currently affects about 40,000 people in the United States. CF is the result of a defective gene, inherited from each parent, and the disease can impact people of all races and ethnicities. Recently, KC White, Board Chair of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, participated in a nationwide satellite media tour to discuss the disease, her personal journey, and how the Foundation is helping progress care and treatment options. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/8wj8u0JEqLU CF is a life-shortening disease that prevents our bodies from clearing mucus. This can lead to lung infections, poor nutrition, lung disease, and a host of unique challenges that can impact every aspect of a person’s life. When it was first discovered, it was considered a fatal pediatric disease. But due to transformative advancements in treatments and high-quality care, the life-expectancy for someone born with CF today is 56. While that number is climbing there is still a long way to go and unfortunately, not all people with CF equally benefit from this progress. KC White was elected chair of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s Board of Trustees in 2022 after serving on the Board since 2005. Diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at age 3, White has been a committed volunteer and inspiring advocate for the Foundation since childhood and is the first person with CF to serve as board chair. When she was diagnosed, she wasn’t expected to live past high school age, but her family refused to accept that fate, which prompted their dedication to the Foundation’s work. Because of recent treatments known as modulators, about 90% of the CF population (including KC) experienced an incredible transformation in their health. With this though, comes navigating unplanned challenges including careers, finances, family, and more. In addition to fueling the research, particularly in genetic therapies, that will lead to transformative treatments for the entire CF population, the CF Foundation works to support the CF community in all aspects of their lives through support programs and fostering connection opportunities. Every May, the cystic fibrosis community comes together for CF Awareness Month to educate the public about the rare disease, share personal stories, and encourage people to get involved and unite behind a shared mission: finding a cure for all people with CF. The CF Foundation is committed to finding a cure and providing all people with CF the opportunity to lead long, fulfilling lives. The Foundation is aggressively funding research and drug development, advancing high-quality, specialized care, and partnering with and advocating for the CF community. For more information, visit CFF.ORG/CFMONTH About KC White KC White was elected chair of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s Board of Trustees in 2022 after serving on the Board since 2005. Diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at age 3, White has been a committed volunteer and inspiring advocate for the Foundation since childhood, speaking at her first Foundation event when she was only 9 years old. She is the first person with CF to serve as board chair. White received her Master of Applied Positive Psychology from the University of Pennsylvania in 2022 and currently serves as an assistant instructor in the program. She is also the Head Varsity Women’s Lacrosse coach for the Chagrin Falls, Ohio, Tigers. She and her husband, Justin, have one son, Mac. About the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is a donor-supported nonprofit organization leading the relentless pursuit of a cure for cystic fibrosis. The Foundation is committed to providing all people with CF the opportunity to lead long, fulfilling lives by funding research and drug development, advancing high-quality, specialized care, and partnering with and advocating for the CF community. The Foundation funds more CF research than any other organization, and nearly every CF drug available today was made possible because of Foundation support. The organization supports and accredits a national network of over 130 CF care centers recognized by the National Institutes of Health as a model of care for a chronic disease. Also, the Foundation manages support programs and fosters connection opportunities for the CF community. Based in Bethesda, Md., the Foundation’s impact is made possible by the work of nearly 70 local chapters across the country. Contact Details YourUpdateTV +1 212-736-2727 yourupdatetv@gmail.com
