Bitcoin Suisse welcomes PEPE, SHIB and WIF to token universe
Bitcoin Suisse is pleased to announce the expansion of our crypto-financial services to include the memecoins Shiba Inu (SHIB), dogwifhat (WIF), and Pepe (PEPE).
Memecoins often get their value from social media trends and community opinions instead of solid financial fundamentals, making them very volatile and speculative. We recommend being cautious when trading these tokens. For more information, please check out our factsheet "Memecoins – An Introduction to the Other Side of Crypto".
