SHIBA Inu coin, Storj and Pyr soared following a Metahero drop, which the cryptocurrency seems to have bounced back from.
Pyr is up a significant 33.73 percent, at $19.73, while stock in Storj went up by 26.41 percent.
Metahero was priced at $0.1228, which is in keeping with slow, steady growth over the last month, marked by occasional drops.
Shiba Inu reached an all-time high of $0.00008845 on Thursday, October 29th.
As Facebook rebrands to “Meta”, MANA is taking over the crypto world. MANA skyrocketed to $4.33 on Saturday, a 164 percent gain.
The rise appears to come after Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced “metaverse” — a virtual reality work for users to play games and socialize.
Shiba Inu has rallied an amazing 800 per cent this month, hitting a record high of $0.00008870.
Meanwhile Bitcoin is down by 1.25% and has been on a steady decline throughout Sunday morning.
On Wednesday, Bitcoin fell from a 24 hour high of $63,064 to $58,500 Wednesday morning. But early on Thursday, it was back above $61,000, according to CoinBase.

FINANCIAL RISKS OF ADOPTING BITCOIN
Proponents of El Salvador’s decision have hailed the move as the progressive future of money.
Critics, however, have derided it as little more than a publicity stunt by Bukele.
More troublingly, they say the move poses substantial financial risks to ordinary Salvadorians and their country, as cryptocurrency is an infamously volatile market.

ADOPTING BITCOIN AS CURRENCY HAS ‘HUGE POTENTIAL’
Maggie Wu, the CEO of blockchain venture capital firm Krypital Group, says challenges in Bitcoin adoption do exist, but told Forbes she’s optimistic about its future.
“I believe that Bitcoin adoption is conceivable, especially in the relatively small developing countries with inadequate monetary systems where the recognition of digital currencies there is relatively high,” she said.
“The blockchain-related infrastructure that can carry digital currencies in most Central and South American countries and regions is not complete, including wallets, exchanges, etc. This is also the direction of our investment focus.”
“We think there is huge potential and value here for fostering crypto adoption throughout the region.”

COULD BITCOIN REPLACE THE DOLLAR? CONTINUED
Leading lights in the Bitcoin community say it is not far from overtaking the value of all the silver in the world and will “easily” have over a billion users within the next five years.

HOW MUCH HAS THE VALUE OF BITCOIN CHANGED?
Bitcoin has jumped 26 percent in the past month.
Some of gains can be attributed to Gary Gensler, chair of the US Securities and Exchange Commission, repeating his support for Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

RISKS OF ROBINHOOD, PART TWO
For investing individual stocks, make sure you check company reports, Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filings, broker notes, and press releases so you can make the best decisions for your money.
Another risk when choosing Robinhood along with other brokers is that they can restrict trading when there’s unusual activity.
In fact, Robinhood faced some outrage earlier this year when it restricted trading on meme stocks including GameStop and AMC.

RISKS OF ROBINHOOD
When it comes to risks, investing alone is one because you’re not guaranteed to generate a profit and the value of your assets could fall.
If you’re choosing Robinhood so you can trade stocks and cryptocurrencies – then the game gets even riskier.
Cryptocurrencies are not only difficult to understand but even tougher to predict when bearish trends in the market will take place.
For example, cryptocurrency was thriving this year up until Elon Musk said that Tesla was halting the acceptance of payments in Bitcoin.
Since then, the crypto spaced has endured volatility.
