Safemoon offers a unique way of investing in cryptocurrency, as people who hold Safemoon and then sell it are subject to a 10% fee. This fee is halved, with 5% of it being given back to other Safemoon holders – the developers call this ‘reflection’. The additional 5% is split again, with 2.5% being used within the liquidity pools on exchanges such Pancake Swap, with the other portion being converted into BNB.
But to understand the dynamic that led to this year’s depressing year for crypto, we actually should start a few years before 2018. In bitcoin’s early days, Mt. Gox was the go-to service for handling transactions. Then, in 2014, it halted transactions and slowly copped to a crypto-hack to the tune of $473 million, the biggest hack of its kind at the time, and it gave many people pause. But it was still early enough for people to believe that the blockchain system was still getting all the technical kinks out.

The world was watching to see if this new technology would hit the mainstream–and government crackdowns following gigantic hacks helped poison the public perception.
So far, the main thing that has driven Safemoon has been the hype generated by celebrity backing. Celebrities such as Jake Paul, Afrojack, and Keemstar have also promoted the coin this year, leading to significant price increases.

Fig 8(A) shows many significant positive correlations between Bitcoin and Litecoin. This is an expected relationship given Litecoin is technically very similar to Bitcoin (Litecoin is essentially Bitcoin with faster block confirmations). Overall, there is no clear leader in the relationship. However during the interval of the late 2013 price bubble (where Bitcoin and Litecoin reached around $1000 and $40 respectively) it can be seen that Bitcoin is leading Litecoin (slightly downward facing arrows across all periods).
