At press time, the PLANET token was trading at $0.00005528, up 14.96% in the last 24 hours; making it the top gainer among today’s most trending cryptocurrencies. The popularity surge coincides with India’s Chandrayaan3 touching down on the moon.
PLANET is the native token of a platform called Planet that uses blockchain technology to tackle the most important sustainability concerns in the world. The ‘Join Our Planet’ movement seeks to resolve the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) established by the United Nations. Through Web2 and Web3’s inclusivity, Planet mobilizes global action in support of environmental causes with the influence of celebrity and fandom.
The price of PLANET cryptocurrency is suddenly skyrocketing after 30 days of a relative bear trend. The token is still 11% below where it was trading 30 days ago, but has surged by over 14% today, shortly after India’s Chandrayaan 3 moon touchdown. The success of the mission may have contributed to the token’s increasing popularity, but there are other reasons for the trend. PLANET recently announced its commitment to security and trust has taken it to the CertiK ‘TOP 10% Security Score and Sub-Score lists’.
The token’s hype has also been fueled by its recent announcement that HODLers who held 1 Million $PLANET in average till the 20th of August will get their invitations to the NFT whitelist soon. Planet is working on some exclusive NFTs and has previously announced that PLANET token owners who were HODLing 1 Million $PLANET from the 21st of July to the 20th Aug on average would be among the FIRST people to get their hands on the exclusive NFTs.
The increased hype around the Planet cryptocurrency is likely due to the much-anticipated exclusive Planet NFTs now that the August 20 HODLing deadline has passed.
