Dogecoin Receives Massive Attention Following Ali Martinez Prediction, Pepe and Everlodge Top Picks for Massive Gains

Total Media

Ali Martinez is bullish on the future of the Dogecoin (DOGE) crypto, which is showcasing signs of a potential breakout. Yet, Analysts are still diversifying with the Pepe (PEPE) meme coin as well for high-growth potential. Aside from those meme coins, Everlodge (ELDG) is also a main point of appeal for investors, as it enables numerous passive income opportunities within its ecosystem. Today, we will go over each crypto to see how far they can climb. Summary Dogecoin to rise in value to $0.098 by the end of 2023 Pepe to spike in value to $0.00000149 by the end of 2023 Everlodge is projected to climb 4,500% at launch Ali Martinez, also known on the X social media platform as @ali_charts, projects that Dogecoin (DOGE) is currently in a tight zone and that it has the potential for an upward breakthrough. Ali noted how Dogecoin is trading between two crucial supply walls on the chart. The first is the support wall, where 200,000 wallets hold 28.6 billion DOGE. The second is the resistance, where 124,000 wallets hold 26.95 billion DOGE. During the past week, the DOGE crypto traded between $0.066157 and $0.076291. Moreover, it experienced a price upswing of 26.4% in the past 30 days. The Dogecoin market cap is at $10,537,600,344. Based on the Dogecoin price prediction, it can reach its highest point of value at $0.098. Pepe (PEPE) Rose by 73.9% in the Past Month Pepe (PEPE) is also trading in the green zone on the weekly chart. The Pepe coin circulating supply is now at 417.06 trillion coins, and during the past week, its value moved from$0.00000104 on the low end to a maximum point at $0.00000121. Moreover, the crypto is also up 73.9% on the monthly chart, indicating massive growth potential.

It taps into the massive and well-established market, valued at $4.5 trillion in 2022, the hospitality industry. It will enter this market through the implementation of blockchain technology to build a property marketplace. For example, a significant issue that a lot of people face in this field is the high capital requirements, alongside the lack of transparency. Everlodge will change this dynamic by enabling anyone to invest in fractions of property-backed NFTs, even on secondary markets. This will give investors a higher level of liquidity that was previously unavailable within the real estate sector. Everlodge will also feature its native crypto, ELDG, which can be staked and used for governance. Currently, it is at Stage 7 of the presale and trades at $0.025. According to analysts, the crypto can spike as high as 4,500% upon launch. Visit Everlodge Contact Details Everlodge PR Team media@everlodge.io

Shiba Inu (SHIB), Polygon (MATIC), and Meme Moguls (MGLS): Top Tokens to Invest in Q4 2024?

Total Media

2024 has been forecasted to be a major year for the crypto industry. One potential reason is the possibility of a crypto bull run which could set the market ablaze. Luckily, three coins have emerged as the best tokens to invest in --they include Shiba Inu, Polygon, and Meme Moguls. Shiba Inu's price has formed a V-shape, on the daily chart, a sign of a market recovery. According to CoinMarketCap, the Shiba Inu token is priced at $0.00000824, after declining by 3.58%. The recent Shiba Inu crypto rally paused at the $0.0000085 resistance level despite the increase in trading activity. This suggests that there is still a lot of selling pressure. This resistance might be because some short-term traders have sold their holdings to take profits. However, this consolidation phase could be an opportunity for buyers to regain their upward trend. If this pattern plays out, the Shiba Inu coin price could cross the $0.0000085 resistance to $0.00001138. Meanwhile, analysts have given a Shiba Inu forecast of between $0.000098 and $0.000115 in Q4 2024. Polygon Whales Accumulating MATIC Tokens Polygon's MATIC has experienced a notable price surge in recent weeks, reaching new price levels. According to Santiment, this upward trend was caused by whale accumulation of Polygon coins. Santiment highlighted that these whale wallets contain between 100,000 and 10 million MATIC tokens. The increased accumulation of the Polygon crypto has led to higher buying pressure. Consequently, this has caused a major price increase, thanks to the bullish sentiment in the wider market. The Polygon price was $0.8279 after recording a 24.8% increase on the weekly chart. Likewise, the Polygon market cap and trading volume have increased in the past three weeks. Meanwhile, two events that could affect the polygon price in 2024 are its upcoming Polygon 2.0 and then Bitcoin's halving. The Polygon value is predicted to reach as high as $4.17. Meme Moguls (MGLS): Analysts Forecasts 1,000% Price Surge Meme Moguls (MGLS) is an exciting upcoming project that aims to create the world's first meme-backed stock market/exchange. This innovative platform is set to launch an engaging ecosystem. To begin with, let us explore the different features offered by the Meme Moguls ecosystem. There's the Moguls Exchange Trading Platform, which lets you trade meme-based assets. Then, there is the Meme Moguls Fantasy Trader section, where you can compete with fellow moguls for rewards and prizes. Another exciting aspect is Mogul Land, a metaverse world where users can mine tokens and participate in liquidity pools. In addition, the platform would offer a staking mechanism that rewards you with more tokens. All you have to do is stake your $MGLS. Other than earning opportunities, Meme Moguls also has an active community. Very active members can look forward to exclusive rewards and valuable NFTs, which are tradeable on Opensea. The platform promises engaging gameplay and tournaments where you can participate and earn extra rewards. Currently, the price of $MGLS tokens is just $0.001 during its presale phase. Interestingly, analysts predict that the price of $MGLS could increase by 1000% by the end of the presale. Visit Meme Moguls Contact Details Meme Moguls media@mememoguls.com

Cure Alzheimer’s Fund Launches WomenandAlzheimers.org

Alzheimer’s Disease Research Foundation

In honor of National Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness Month, Cure Alzheimer’s Fund announces the launch of WomenandAlzheimers.org, a website dedicated to bringing awareness to the impact of Alzheimer’s on women, providing information on research into understanding sex-based differences and recognizing many of the women who are working toward finding a cure. There are more than 6 million people in the United States—and 50 million people throughout the world—currently living with an Alzheimer’s diagnosis, and experts estimate there may be as many as three times more people living with the disease who have not yet been diagnosed. Both men and women develop Alzheimer’s disease, but two-thirds of all patients are women, and women are frequently the primary caregivers for spouses, partners, parents and others with the disease. “For far too long, science has had a partial view into disease biology because only one sex was included in research studies,” said Meg Smith, CEO of Cure Alzheimer’s Fund. “Cure Alzheimer’s Fund has long required researchers to include consideration of potential sex differences in their projects. Understanding why and how Alzheimer’s develops differently in men and women, and the factors that increase resilience or risk, will lead to benefits for all Alzheimer’s patients.” WomenandAlzheimers.org is a resource to learn more about Alzheimer’s disease pathology, signs and symptoms, and the scientific discoveries that are advancing our understanding of the disease. Users can learn about ways to improve brain health, at any age, and read about the women who are working to find a cure, including researchers, Board members, staff members and advocates. About Cure Alzheimer’s FundCure Alzheimer’s Fund is a nonprofit dedicated to funding the most promising research to prevent, slow or reverse Alzheimer’s disease. Since its founding in 2004, Cure Alzheimer’s Fund has provided grants to the world’s leading researchers and contributed more than $180 million to research. Its funded initiatives have been responsible for many key breakthroughs in understanding the causes and pathology of Alzheimer’s disease. Cure Alzheimer’s Fund has received a 4-star rating for more than 12 consecutive years from Charity Navigator. With 100% of funds raised going to support research, Cure Alzheimer’s Fund has been able to provide grants to many of the best scientific minds in the field of Alzheimer’s research.

Shiba Inu’s Price Trajectory: Evaluating the Recovery Prospects Against Rebel Satoshi

RoundHouse Media

The crypto market has rebounded impressively in Q4 2023. As a result, novice investors are increasingly asking whether top altcoins like Shiba Inu (SHIB) will continue performing bullishly. Meanwhile, Rebel Satoshi ( $RBLZ ), a new meme coin, is stealing the limelight from popular tokens after promising to generate a 150% ROI during its public presale. Why is Shiba Inu losing investors to emerging tokens like Rebel Satoshi? Continue reading to discover! Shiba Inu Gains 2% In a Week: What’s The Future Outlook? Shiba Inu has performed decently over the past seven days, starting November 2. On November 2, SHIB was trading around $0.000007861. SHIB surged marginally until the Shiba Inu team announced that Shibarium would spread decision-making across the community as part of its 2024/2025 roadmap on November 6. As a result, Shiba Inu surged as high as $0.000008696 on November 9. However, news of a whale transferring 4 trillion SHIB saw the price correct downward to stabilize around $0.000008090. This November 9 price means SHIB has only gained 2.98% in a week. So, based on this performance, is SHIB a good crypto to buy? According to analysts, SHIB will continue plunging in November as the selling force from the whale activity intensifies. To be specific, experts set the end-of-November SHIB prediction at $0.000007617. However, the end-of-2023 SHIB forecast is bullish, with experts predicting SHIB will soar as high as $0.000010779. This forecast makes SHIB one of the best coins to invest in. Analysts peg this prediction on SHIB getting more adoption as more investors embrace it because of its 2024/2025 roadmap.

Minuteman Press Franchise Owner Sherri Winslow Reflects on Over 20 Years in Palm Desert, CA and Joins President’s Club

Minuteman Press International Inc

Sherri Winslow is the owner of the Minuteman Press franchise in Palm Desert, CA since April of 2002. When her husband suddenly passed away in 2012, Sherri made the difficult decision to carry on as she took a more prominent role in the business as the sole owner and operator. Since then, Sherri has continued to build her business and in 2023 she was honored and acknowledged as one of the newest members of the Minuteman Press President’s Club. As she reflects on her accomplishments, Sherri shares her thoughts on 20-plus years and joining the President’s Club, keys to success and longevity, advice to others, and more. Celebrating 20 Years + Joining Minuteman Press President’s Club In 2022, Sherri celebrated 20 years of business ownership for Minuteman Press in Palm Desert. Today, in 2023, Sherri is now recognized as a member of the Minuteman Press International President’s Club for achieving yearly gross sales of over $1 million in 2022. Sherri shares, “Reflecting on our 20 years in business makes me realize that we were fortunate to partner with a good franchisor. Very few small businesses were able to make it through this period without a strong management and operational program to follow. That along with proper training and support from people that have been in the print business have made a huge impact. We will always be thankful for this.” She continues, “In 2023, I was proud to join the Minuteman Press International President’s Club. We have had fairly steady growth over the past 20 years. We started out making $19,000 in our first month after buying an existing business. In 2012, I lost my husband and I personally went from part-time to being the boss. My staff and Minuteman Press local support led by RVP Dan Byers helped me through one of the most difficult times in my life. It was a very foggy year but we made it. In the past few years, we were getting close to the $1 million milestone and we set that as our goal last year. My staff and I worked very hard to make sure we reached that goal. A lot of hard work and determination helped us get there.” When asked about her keys to success and growth, Sherri says, “Our longevity and success is primarily due to our staff and customer service. We have had many referrals through the years without asking. Now that we have been through the last training session, we plan to start asking for referrals through different channels. Other contributing factors to our success are related to our direct & internet marketing along with expanding our services & products over the years. We added wide format in the beginning, then signage, direct mail, and blueprints.” Sherri continues, “There are two other areas worth mentioning that I feel have been successful for us. The first has to do with Google Reviews, which has been a point of focus at regional meetings. At one meeting before the pandemic hit, there were around 50 people in attendance from many franchises in Southern California. We talked about how important Google Reviews are. We shared materials used to get reviews and it really blossomed here. I get a lot of new customers because they did a search and noticed how many good reviews we have.” She further shares, “Next is having good storefront and building signage. My shop is on the main highway that people travel from one end of the valley to the other. You can’t miss my shop because we went big and bold with the signage. I would do more, but the local laws don’t allow it. People always tell me they find me from our signage.” Printing Industry & Community/Franchise Support Sherri shares her insights on the printing industry today, saying, “Printing remains vital to businesses today because it provides a connection that stays with the consumer as opposed to the internet or email. Your printed materials end up in someone’s hand, which can make that lasting impression. How many people swipe left or delete emails without reading them? They will always take the time to look at a business card, postcard or holiday card that they receive.” In Palm Desert, Sherry says, “We are a small set of cities that hold large events and conventions. This brings an increase to our population that is about triple the amount during certain months of the year. Thanks to our community, our key growth areas have included signage, blueprints, convention printing and direct mail.” She adds, “We would not be where we are today without the local franchise support, training and the IT department that Minuteman Press International provides. We owe a lot of our success to this.” Rewards & Advice for Others As she looks back on over 20 years and reflects on the rewards of owning a business, Sherri says, “I would say my biggest personal reward is that I have been able to achieve everything that I have wanted to in my life. I can’t really ask for more personally except for time. My biggest professional reward has been reaching that $1 million goal and making the Minuteman Press President’s Club.” As for what advice she would give to others, Sherri shares, “Make sure you are active with the quote process and follow-up. Understand the difference between shoppers (who are getting 3 quotes from various vendors) and buyers. I recommend you give the customer a day to digest the quote they received, then follow up and make sure you answer their questions. Lastly, make sure you let them know you want to meet their price point or their budget constraints if you do… Again, the difference between a shopper and a buyer will make the difference on whether you will want to meet their budget constraints.” Minuteman Press in Palm Desert is located at 73-660 Highway 111, Palm Desert, CA 92260.

Health History on the Menu: This Thanksgiving Pass the Pumpkin Pie--and Grandma’s Health History

YourUpdateTV

Thanksgiving is a day filled with food, football, and conversations with family. While loved ones spend time together safely this Thanksgiving, they should consider talking about family health history. Recently, Susan Manley, senior vice president of Medical Services at Myriad Genetics and Ashley Dedmon, breast cancer previvor conducted a satellite media tour to talk about the importance of initiating health conversations at your holiday gathering. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/j0VMnkq1ij4 More than half (55%) of respondents to a recent Myriad Genetics Cancer Risk survey of women said that it’s important to know their cancer risk for “peace of mind.” Yet, 20% of women say they don’t talk about health issues in their family. This has potentially life-threatening consequences. Patients with a family history of breast, ovarian, uterine, or colorectal cancer may have a higher risk for developing these cancers. Getting answers to these questions may qualify your viewers for genetic hereditary cancer testing, which can help people and their clinician determine if they are at an increased risk of developing specific types of cancer. November is Family Health History Month. Encourage your audience to talk about family health history – it may save some lives. Myriad Genetics has an easy-to-complete family health history form to help start the conversation and take notes. During the holiday season, people can bring this form along to family gatherings and complete it by asking as many blood relatives, parents and grandparents, aunts and uncles, sisters and brothers about their family history. To learn more visit: myriad.com/KNOWYOURHISTORY BIOS Susan Manley, MS, MBA Senior Vice President, Medical Services Myriad Genetics, Inc. Salt Lake City, Utah Susan received her undergraduate degree in Biological Sciences from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee with a certification in biotechnology, her Master’s degree in Genetic Counseling from the University of Cincinnati, and her MBA from Loyola University in Maryland. She is an American Board of Genetic Counseling certified Genetic Counselor and holds a Genetic Counselor license in the state of Utah. She has been employed at Myriad Genetics for the past 28 years in both medical support and commercialization capacities and has been involved in the development of the commercial genetic testing market from medical, ethical, clinical, counseling, sales and marketing standpoints. Currently, she oversees a large staff of licensed genetic counselors who provide professional customer support and patient education for Myriad’s hereditary cancer and prenatal products. She is published in the medical literature including JAMA, JCO and Breast Cancer Research and Treatment. This combination of clinical knowledge and commercialization experience is unique and valuable in precision medicine space. Ashley Dedmon Breast cancer has impacted Ashley Demon’s family since before she was born - three generations of women in her family have been impacted by this disease. Ashley’s great grandmother, grandmother and mother all passed away from breast cancer, Ashley’s mother at only 42, when Ashley was 21. Cancer didn't stop there: her father was diagnosed with prostate cancer. Ashley’s hereditary mutations heightened her cancer risk. After taking the MyRisk® Hereditary Cancer Test, she learned she carried the BRCA2 gene mutation, putting her at an elevated risk for breast, ovarian and other cancers.
