However, while there are some organisations that accept it as currency, others shy away due to Bitcoin’s dramatic price swings.

Ahead of the SafeMoon wallet release, its eponymous native token’s price was on a steady upward crawl. Beginning the week at $0.00000184, it made its way up to $0.00000365 by August 28.
