Solana and Dogecoin Price Analysis – A Major Showdown On The Cards

Total Media

Recently, two vastly different tokens have emerged as crypto front-runners, each with unique appeal. Solana (SOL) and Dogecoin (DOGE) have both captured the attention of cryptocurrency enthusiasts worldwide. This article will examine their recent price performance and some developments that may have caused their movements. Solana (SOL): Binance Embraces BONK and Art Flourishes Solana (SOL), the high-performance blockchain network, has witnessed a surge in positive developments, signaling bullish momentum. The Solana price increased by 84.88% in the past month and now trades around $58. Binance's recent listing of the Solana-based meme coin, BONK, has added significant excitement to the ecosystem. Moreover, Solana’s dedication to arts can be seen through the initiation of Artists in Residence which is a lively studio that exhibits the project’s diverse art forms. Solana remains a dynamic force, with 18 out of the last 30 days marked by positive gains and 22.32% price volatility. During that time, the price of SOL jumped from $32 to $57 - a whopping 78% increase. Due to all these factors, market analysts have made a bullish Solana price prediction. They foresee its value surging to $63 by December 2023, showing its robust growth and innovation potential. Dogecoin (DOGE): Surge in High-Value Transactions Dogecoin (DOGE), initially started as a meme, has grown to become a symbol of community-driven tokens. Regarding the Dogecoin price performance, it has jumped by 14.91% in the past 30 days and currently sits around the $0.077 level. In recent news, a surge in transactions exceeding $100,000 was spotted by analyst Ali Martinez. This indicates heightened activity among institutional players and significant holders. Martinez also suggested increased interest in Dogecoin and potential preparation for a notable price upswing. It was also a period of significant Dogecoin transactions including 80M DOGE tokens moved from Robinhood to an unidentified wallet, as reported by Whale Alert. These events indicate some ongoing activities and strategic moves in the Dogecoin ecosystem. For now, Dogecoin is trading above both its 21-day and 50-day EMAs which is a good indicator for it. As such, experts are bullish when making Dogecoin price predictions. A surge is expected to happen as the Dogecoin price is estimated to hit $0.09 before the end of 2023 according to them. An Upcoming Game-Changer Amidst the hype surrounding these titans, Meme Moguls (MGLS) will emerge as an intriguing player in the crypto space. Offering a unique mix of entertainment and profit, Meme Moguls uses meme-driven trends to create a meme-backed stock market. This innovation will help Meme Moguls stand out from the rest of its peers. Among Dogecoin and Solana, this is an important token to look at because it is innovative and aligned with internet culture. Visit Meme Moguls Contact Details Meme Moguls marketing@mememoguls.com

Grayscale's SEC Meeting for Bitcoin (BTC) ETF Unveiled – Solana (SOL) and Everlodge (ELDG) Catching Traders' Eye for Mega Returns

Total Media

The crypto market has been buzzing with anticipation following Grayscale's recent meeting with the SEC to discuss the prospects of a Bitcoin ETF. While specifics remain confidential, this interaction has drawn attention to alternative assets like Solana (SOL) and Everlodge (ELDG), which are gaining traction among traders for their potential growth. Bitcoin (BTC): Rally Following Grayscale's Revealed Memo Bitcoin (BTC) has experienced a resurgence in market sentiment following a disclosed memo revealing Grayscale's engagement with the SEC. The memo exposed discussions between Grayscale executives and the SEC regarding converting their renowned Bitcoin trust into a spot Bitcoin ETF. Regarding the Bitcoin price performance, it has displayed resilience, recording a 57% bullish trend over the last 30 days. It increased from $30.462 on October 22nd to $36.455 on November 22nd. Market experts have also made a bullish Bitcoin price prediction, forecasting it to reach $48.954 by December 2023. The transparency and potential regulatory advancements in the Grayscale memo have contributed to Bitcoin's upward trajectory. Solana (SOL): New Cross-Chain Swapper Recently, there was some exciting Solana (SOL) news as well. Initially tailored exclusively for Solana users, Phantom has expanded its scope with a cross-chain swapper. According to the Phantom announcement, the latest feature will facilitate liquidity bridging between Ethereum-based assets and USDC on Solana. Solana's upward momentum is evident as it maintains its position above the 50 and 100-day EMAs, signaling stability and potential for growth. The Solana price increased from $42.21 on November 8th to $54.73 on November 22nd. Analysts are projecting a price surge to $58.63 in their Solana price predictions before the end of 2023. According to them, this cross-chain swapper expands Phantom's utility and strengthens Solana's position as an attractive platform for cross-chain interoperability. Everlodge (ELDG): A Potential Challenger to Bitcoin and Solana While these Bitcoin and Solana developments are exciting, Everlodge (ELDG) will emerge as a promising contender in the crypto space. This rising presale star has already provided early buyers with a 150% ROI while selling 5M ELDG native tokens so far. Traders are confident in its substantial potential to disrupt traditional markets. At its core, Everlodge will establish a one-of-a-kind property marketplace where you can fractionally own a luxurious hotel or vacation home for a low price. It will accomplish this by digitizing and minting these real-world assets into NFTs and then fractionalizing them. This will remove the high entry costs, significantly improving accessibility. Integrating NFTs and smart contracts hints at a future where real estate transactions could become more streamlined. For example, smart contracts will automate all property-related tasks, such as tenant agreements and rent distribution. Therefore, you no longer need to rely on intermediaries like lawyers. ELDG is now in Stage 7 of its presale costing only $0.025. But, unlike Bitcoin and Solana, it has real-world connections to the $280T real estate market while boasting a low market cap. Thus, it may reach its growth ceiling sooner.Experts forecast a surge to $0.038 before its presale ends. Those who buy it now will also participate in a Maldives holiday giveaway.

Umoja Foundation’s charity NFT collection Supporting Ugandan orphans mints November 28 as Giving Tuesday

Umoja Foundation

Umoja Foundation, a philanthropic web3 project, unveiled their first collection of 6,050 charity NFTs set to mint on November 28 as part of Giving Tuesday. Hinging on the limitless possibilities that web3 presents for direct humanitarian impact, Umoja’s mission starts with evolving NFTs into social tokens for good, providing altruistic, real-world utility. Following the likes of mainstream financial companies, such as PayPal, MoneyGram, CashApp, and Venmo, who are adapting their platforms for cryptocurrency, Umoja seeks to usher in a mass adoption era of NFTs by revolutionizing the concept of philanthropy. Umoja believes the next generation of philanthropy belongs on the blockchain, thanks to the numerous benefits it offers, including transparent and immutable transactions that create trust, unique passive revenue opportunities, visible direct impact for patrons, and limitless potential that’s only just begun to be tapped. Ideated by the very people the project supports, each Umoja charity NFT supports orphans and the surrounding needy community of Dasom Ministries Orphanage in Uganda. The 17 resident children of Dasom Ministries, led by Joel Muwonge, are not only the beneficiaries of the project’s proceeds, but the artistic visionaries behind every piece of generative art in the collection as well. Prompts imagined by the children such as “I imagine a lion carrying a young boy [on] its back, running through a body of water” or “I imagine of a woman dressed in a white dress, walking through a field of blue and white flowers” are fed, along with a secret sauce of artistic direction coined by Umoja’s Founder Tiffany Stewart, into a generative art program, creating Umoja’s unique, dreamlike pieces. Proceeds from Umoja’s NFT sales provide direct real-world value by funding Dasom Ministries’ recurring expenses like food, medicine, education, and clothing, along with fixed-cost projects like constructing a larger home, purchasing a transport van, and a clean water project. During the 17-day mint period (representing the 17 children in Dasom Ministries’ care), the debut collection will feature 200 30/30 pieces and 50 1/1 pieces, priced roughly at the Ethereum equivalent of $50 USD and $150 USD, respectively. These price points are designed to create an accessible, yet impactful, entry point for a philanthropic web3 contribution. Available exclusively on Rarible, any of the Ethereum-backed resales of Umoja’s NFTs will generate royalties funding the foundation’s ongoing support. Umoja emphasizes resales as an integral component of its model, stressing the importance of viewing these pieces as an investment in real-world utility: Upon each resale, 7% of the royalties are routed back to Umoja to supply replenishment of resources and ongoing support to Dasom Ministries, as well as expansion efforts. Leveraging the borderless aspects of web3 to bridge the world’s technology gap and better share the wealth, Umoja aspires to become a larger vehicle for social good. Future collections will include animated and physical NFTs, and support wider communities in Uganda, Africa, and elsewhere. ABOUT UMOJA Umoja is a web3 NFT project with real-world utility. We generate art imagined by the kids our proceeds support at Dasom Ministries Orphanage in Uganda. Umoja’s first collection mints November 28, 2023.

unClassic Foods is Changing the Narrative Around Plant-Based Protein With Specialty Mushroom

Prodigy Press Wire

The global meat substitute industry has grown to more than $14.1 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $17.4 billion in 2027, according to research by global business consulting firm EY. Despite this, consumption of plant-based protein still pales compared to animal meat. There are numerous obstacles to widespread adoption of meat substitutes such as sub-par products, unfamiliarity, or cultural reluctance. Luiza Villela, a food scientist and founder of unClassic Foods, says the main reason so-called meat substitutes are not selling as well as expected is because most consumers don’t have a problem eating meat and, in fact, love eating it. Therefore, there is no hurry for the public to stop its meat intake making it extremely hard to convince them to exchange something they like for something they don't like or aren’t familiar with. Villela also noticed that most people see meat alternatives as an inferior product, and that many meat substitute companies feed into this narrative by benchmarking their products against meat, which is considered the golden standard. With products including the likes of plant-based “meatballs” or “chicken”, mimicking even the appearance of meat, giving them the impression that plant-based protein is “fake meat” or lesser than the golden standard. unClassic Foods seeks to challenge this by going the opposite way – by presenting its specialty mushroom products as something that is of superior stature to meat. Currently, unClassic Foods has two products – mushroom steak tips and mushroom nuggets. These are made from high-quality whole oyster mushrooms and are pre-seasoned and pre-cooked, so consumers just need to heat them up or mix with their favorite dishes and serve. Villela aims to raise the profile of mushroom as a main protein source to the point that people would choose it on its own merits rather because of how similar it was to meat. “People don't like inauthenticity. So, if you are selling something that mimics something else, it is really hard to not be the “fake version” of it.” Villela says. “Our specialty mushrooms are not meat alternatives. Instead, they are a new center of the plate. Whenever people think about a meal, they naturally gravitate towards the protein, such as chicken, beef, fish, pork. We are positioning mushrooms as another member of the main protein category. Mushrooms will be at the center of the plate as the protagonist of the dish.” In the future, unClassic Foods seeks to expand its operations, initially targeting food service clients in the fast casual dining category in California. After that, it will target the retail segment, bringing its mushrooms to a wider audience through major supermarkets’ shelves. “Mushrooms definitely have the potential to be a new center of the plate, because it has the presence, texture, and umami flavor the people like, without having to pretend to be meat,” Villela says. “Most people only think about white buttons or champignon when it comes to mushrooms, but there is much more, with specialty mushrooms only making up 2% of the US market. We use a special variant of oyster mushrooms that has around 13% protein, compared to only 3% for regular mushrooms. We also do not add any isolates or concentrates, instead using the entire flower of the mushroom, not just the stems and other byproducts.” Despite hailing from Brazil, a country well known for its meat, Villela became vegan both for health reasons and out of concern for the animals being used in the livestock industry. However, she also recognizes that eating meat has been part of human life and culture for thousands of years, and reducing meat intake is a gradual process that cannot be forced. After finishing her degree in biology at University of California, Berkeley, she has worked for several meat and dairy substitute producers, including the global market leader. Throughout her career she saw flaws in the messaging and presentation of the products, which she seeks to correct with unClassic Foods. “The way the industry tries to convince people to change their diets is by mentioning the environment,” she says. “However, this is completely abstract, and the bottom line is, no one cares. Very few people go to the grocery thinking about the environment when they're buying food. No one says 'I'm definitely going to stop eating steak' when they see that a particular meat substitute product uses 90% less land and 90% less water than beef. People don't necessarily need something to be exactly like meat. If it's delicious and it's truly healthier for them, they will make the change.” Media contact: Name: Luiza Villela Email: luiza@unclassicfoods.com Release ID: 807203

AuKing Mining in the thick of the uranium action

AuKing Mining Ltd

AuKing Mining Ltd (ASX:AKN) CEO Paul Williams tells Proactive the company has been granted three new prospecting licences at its Mkuju Uranium Project in Tanzania, establishing a significant position in an emerging uranium hotspot. These new licences, granted by the Tanzanian Mining Commission, are east of AuKing’s existing portfolio of tenures and span more than 345 square kilometres. The additional tenure features radiometric highs similar in appearance to the world-class Nyota uranium deposit to the immediate northeast. “Our work to date has already established a strong correlation between radiometric anomalies and uranium mineralisation," Williams said. "In particular, the radiometric anomalies in these new areas bear a striking resemblance to the radiometric high that sits over the world-class Nyota uranium deposit.” Contact Details Proactive Investors Jonathan Jackson +61 413 713 744 Jonathan@proactiveinvestors.com

Cara Veterinary Pioneers Modern Pet Care Through Comcast Business Solutions

Comcast Pacific Northwest

Comcast Business today announced that it is providing Cara Veterinary, one of Washington’s leading veterinary care networks, with Ethernet Dedicated Internet (EDI) at its 10 locations across Washington state. The technology powers network connections and technology-dependent veterinary care services across all of Cara Veterinary’s locations, helping to enhance the efficiency and reliability of Cara Veterinary’s network of clinics. Rooted in the Irish word for 'friend,' Cara Veterinary understands that pets are increasingly considered irreplaceable family members – for many, pets are closer to children than they are animals. As a result, Cara Veterinary has continually evolved its veterinary practice since its establishment in 2018 to ensure that its health care model addresses both the medical needs of animals and the emotional needs of humans. With 10 clinic locations across the greater Seattle region, Cara Veterinary is committed to listening to its clients with empathy and treating them like family. The company is known for prioritizing the health and happiness of pets, approaching its work with compassion, as well as being active in the communities it serves. This approach ensures that Cara Veterinary can offer pets and their owners unparalleled care, and foster relationships built on trust and expertise. While the veterinary industry has always relied on technology to help conduct pet exams, over the past several years, the operations side of the industry has further evolved to become more tech-forward. For Cara Veterinary, that shift presented further opportunities to connect with and listen to their clients by using technology to create even stronger customer connections. Paper-based files have become electronic medical records that both clinics and customers can access, and communication between clinic staff and customers has expanded from phone calls to online booking platforms, chats and emails. Additionally, in the pursuit of re-imagining what veterinary care looks like, Cara Veterinary often experiments with new ways of delivering care and communicating with its customers, incorporating pioneering technologies and modernized operations into its ecosystem of clinics. Cara Veterinary recognized that a reliable network backbone would be essential to supporting these business needs and their ongoing mission of compassionate care. The company turned to Comcast Business for technology that could handle both current and future bandwidth demands. “Our intricate technology ecosystem, which spans from patient records to diagnostic lab results and multi-faceted customer communications, is the pulse of our operations, so we need an advanced network powering our workflow,” said Peter Brown, president of Cara Veterinary. “Comcast Business not only assures us the network speed we need, but also peace of mind thanks to its reliable infrastructure.” With EDI from Comcast Business integrated across all Cara Veterinary locations, the technology helps guarantee lightning-fast network speeds for staff and customers alike. Beyond just connectivity, the tech-infused synergy between the clinics facilitates operational cohesion, like cross-location bookings. Moreover, by automating and streamlining many administrative tasks, Cara Veterinary’s staff can shift their focus from paperwork to personalized client and pet interactions, making every visit more memorable. In spring 2024, Cara Veterinary will open the doors of its 11 th clinic location in the greater Seattle area. Comcast Business is set to provide EDI at the newest location and support Cara Veterinary as it integrates the clinic into its broader network of facilities. The expansion is a testament to the demand for Cara Veterinary’s services, and to Comcast Business’ ability to evolve its solutions in tandem with its customers’ growth. “The real power of technology lies not just in automation, but in its potential to forge deeper, more meaningful interactions between businesses and the people they serve,” said Rob Brenner, vice president of Comcast Business for Comcast’s Pacific Northwest Region. “Cara Veterinary's approach to serving its customers is a prime example of how technology can foster genuine human connections. Comcast Business is proud to provide the technological backbone that allows Cara Veterinary to create those invaluable human-to-human moments.” Comcast Business offers a broad suite of technology solutions to keep businesses of all sizes ready for what’s next. With a range of offerings including connectivity, secure networking, advanced cybersecurity, and unified communications solutions, Comcast Business is partnering with business and technology leaders across industries and integrating Masergy, a leader in software defined networking, to help drive businesses forward.

Comcast Expands Broadband Access in Silverdale

Comcast Pacific Northwest

Comcast today announced it has begun construction to expand its smart, fast and reliable fiber-rich network to more than 450 additional homes and businesses in Silverdale. The majority of homes are expected to be serviced by early next year. The network expansion will offer Xfinity Internet services with residential broadband speeds faster than 1 gigabit per second (Gbps) and Comcast Business Internet speeds up to 100 Gbps. Residential customers will be able to take advantage of Xfinity’s full suite of internet products, including the company’s Internet Essentials program that provides low-cost, high-speed broadband for income-constrained households. Since its inception in 2011, the program has connected nearly 10,000 Kitsap County residents, many for the first time. Comcast also participates in the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), which provides qualifying households with a $30 monthly credit toward internet and mobile services. “I am so excited at the opportunity to make the switch to Xfinity. It was a great decision to have Silverdale be included in Comcast's expansion project. Whether it's faster and more reliable internet access to be able to work from home, or to better connect with friends and family over video calls, this improvement will make a huge difference in our daily lives,” said Silverdale resident Cheryl Christian. “We can’t wait to bring out powerful fiber-rich network to more homes and businesses in Silverdale. We’ve been working hard to expand on the Kitsap Peninsula and are proud to be part of the community, providing our services, working with local community organizations, and connecting as many people as we can in the area,” said Juan Key, senior director, Business Development, Comcast Pacific Northwest Region. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, affordable, reliable broadband internet service is fundamental to modern American life. It ensures rural schoolchildren have equal access to comprehensive educational opportunities and allows rural communities to provide the best health outcomes – at reasonable cost – to their residents. High-speed internet service stimulates job creation and sparks innovation that enhances rural economic development. Comcast’s network expansion in Silverdale is the latest example of the company’s investment to expand broadband access. The company is investing $280 million in 2023 to offer multi-gigabit Internet speeds to more than four million locations, expand broadband and video services to more than 60,000 additional homes and businesses, and provide donations and in-kind services to communities throughout Oregon and Washington. “Connecting people to the power of technology is important and life-changing,” said Rodrigo Lopez, Senior Regional Vice President of Comcast’s Pacific Northwest Region. That is why Comcast is investing $280 million this year to expand broadband and video services to more than 60,000 additional homes and businesses, enhance our network to offer multi-gigabit Internet speeds, and advance digital equity in communities throughout Oregon and Washington.” Powered by the Xfinity 10G Network Comcast’s network and Internet experience are powering homes and businesses today and into the future: Ultimate Capacity: Xfinity customers connect nearly 1 billion devices across the company’s network annually. The Xfinity 10G Network with the next-generation Xfinity gateways deliver the most advanced WiFi technology carrying three times more bandwidth to power streaming, gaming, videoconferencing, and more, simultaneously. Fastest Internet: More than a third of Xfinity Internet customers subscribe to gigabit speed products, and symmetrical gig speeds are planned to come to the first homes later this year. Unprecedented Coverage: The latest Xfinity Gateway provides a more reliable connection throughout the home. Customers can get wall-to-wall WiFi coverage with a powerful Xfinity WiFi Boost Pod that extends coverage to hard-to-reach areas, with plans for an offering of increased support for in-home WiFi through a “boost guarantee” later this year. Most Reliable Connection: Comcast is scaling the nation’s largest and most reliable network – the Xfinity 10G Network – that passes 60 million homes and businesses and counting. The company plans to launch a new device that is “storm ready” with cellular and battery backup to help keep customers connected even when the power goes out. Ultra-Low Latency: The Xfinity 10G Network and the latest Xfinity Gateway are a powerful combination that deliver ultra-low latency for those moments when response times matter most like video games, a fast-growing category with Xfinity households averaging more than one gaming console per home. For local businesses, Comcast Business offers a suite of connectivity, cybersecurity, managed solutions and Comcast Business Mobile products designed specifically for their employee’s needs. Powered by the nation’s largest Gig-speed broadband network, and backed by 24/7 customer support, Comcast Business is the nation’s largest cable and Internet provider to small and mid-size businesses and one of the leading providers to larger organizations in the Enterprise market. Comcast Business has been consistently recognized by industry analysts and associations as a leader and innovator, and one of the fastest growing providers of Ethernet services.
