We explain what you need to know about SafeMoon and how its price is predicted to change in 2021.
Bitcoin–and the cryptocurrency industry as a whole–plunged this year, after a gravity-defying surge in recent years. The price of the digital coin hit nearly $20,000 late last year. And then in early 2018, it began to fall. Though it hit a few plateaus, the price has still tumbled; today it hovers at a little over $3,000.
The coin's tokenomics show that the team is building a platform that rewards investors handsomely. First, the token is a hyper-deflationary payment network token, which rewards investors for holding tokens in BNB. For every transaction, 12% is charged, only 3% of the collected tax goes to marketing. The 4% is awarded to the token holders in BNB. It is this active income from the rewards, which is paid every 60 minutes, that is attracting most Safemoon members and thousands of other investors.
Cryptocurrency, the blockchain-based digital currency that has captured the interest of investors and financial service firms alike, has a challenging problem. It can be hard to actually spend this currency like you would regular money.
Even if this were the case, and Safemoon coin was to increase in price dramatically before an instant fall, it would still represent a good investment for purely speculative investors. For example, if Safemoon were to simply return to the all-time high experienced on April 20th, then that would represent an incredible 921% return from today’s price!
“Volatility is as old as the hills, and it’s not going anywhere,” Noble says. “It’s something you have to deal with.”
But to take advantage of its competitive 0.1% standard fee, you’ll need to spot trade through the Binance.US trading platform. This can be confusing if you’re unfamiliar with exchange lingo; on other exchanges, this type of trading and fee structure is typically used in more advanced platform options, such as Coinbase’s Coinbase Pro or Gemini’s Active Trader.
Bitcoin’s latest big jump also isn’t anything new. “While in the long-term Bitcoin’s price has generally gone up, we experience a lot of volatility along the way,” says Kiana Danial, founder of Invest Diva.
Chiefly, Binance will no longer permit U.S. passport holders to sign up for its global Binance.com service. That’s according to the company’s updated terms and conditions — “Binance is unable to provide services to any U.S. person” — which were confirmed to TechCrunch by a spokesperson.
The result of this saw Bitcoin’s highest prices sliced in half in June, with the coin struggling to break out of the low to mid $30k price range until it received a welcome boost from Tesla founder Elon Musk in his appearance at major Bitcoin conference in July.
Blockchains typically function via proof-of-work (PoW) or proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus algorithms. PoW operates based on miners who often designate specific computing machines for the process.
