Next Cryptocurrency to Explode Wall Street Memes Presale Ends in 7 Days, Launches on Top Exchanges in 9 Days
NEW YORK, Sept. 18, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — There are only seven days left to buy Wall Street Memes, the most highly anticipated meme coin launch of 2023.
$WSM coin has already raised in excess of $25 million as its one million-strong community, with which Elon Musk interacts, seeks to monetize the GameStop stonks stock-democratizing movement and bring its verve to crypto.
According to the Wall Street Memes website, in nine days the first tier 1 centralized exchange (CEX) listings will take place, which according to unconfirmed reports, will feature at least two top 10 exchanges.
Speculation is rife as to which exchanges are in the frame, with at least one YouTuber chalking up Binance as one of the trading venues.
But even if it is not Binance just yet, snaring a bunch of top exchanges at this early stage of the project’s development will stand it in good stead for a Binance listing in the future, and explosive price action at launch in a little over a week.
Wall Street Meme’s presale is still open, so there’s no time to lose to grab your allocation before it closes. The native token, $WSM, is priced at $0.0337 and could soon be trading at 10x that valuation.
Crypto watchers should not make the mistake of writing off Wall Street Memes as just another low-utility meme coin in search of a viral following.
Although not publicly announced, it is thought that the project has a number of major products it will be launching after it is listed on major centralized exchanges.
The project is all about helping Main Street take on Wall Street and win, and there’s no better way to do that than with crypto as the tip of the spear of the attack plan.
Its first product has actually already launched, with the unveiling less than a week ago of new staking functionality.
The Wall Street Memes staking service is a big hit with the community.
So far, 343 million $WSM tokens have been staked and are currently earning an annual percentage yield (APY) of 58%, as shown on the staking dashboard. It means that 34% of the tokens allocated to the presale have now been locked in the staking pool smart contract.
There is a maximum total token supply of 2,000,000,000, of which 50% (1 billion) is on sale in the soon-to-finish presale. As far as tokenomics goes, 20% is equally divided for decentralized and centralized exchange liquidity, 50% for marketing, and 30% for community rewards.
Such a substantial cut of the tokens set aside for marketing confirms the serious ambition of this project.
Twenty percent of the $WSM total token supply is allocated for staking rewards (400,000,000). This comes out of the 30% allocated to community rewards.
The significance of staking cannot be overstated. Because it provides a passive income stream, it will encourage long-term holding of the coin. It will also have the welcome effect of suppressing selling pressure when the coin lists.
On top of its existing brand power among retail investors, Wall Street Memes has another thing going for it that competing meme coins lack – established verifiable legitimacy.
When multi-billionaire tech mogul Elon Musk interacts with your X (formerly Twitter) feed, it is time to uncork the Champagne. Well, $WSM is already in that enviable position.
You can check out two of Musk’s posts on @wallstmemes at the links here https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1636924379086077954 and here https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1649784663924244482.
When it comes to meme coin influencers, they don’t come any bigger than Elon Musk. His interactions to date beg the question: has Elon Musk been buying $WSM?
Just a little help from Musk can take a coin a very long way, as Dogecoin holders will attest – Musk is thought to feature among the line-up of Dogecoin whales.
Buying or not, Elon Musk has already sprinkled enough of his fairy dust to magic up a stellar launch for $WSM.
The avowed aim of the Wall Street Memes coin is to monetize the investor-focused social movement that, at its height, saw bands of retail stock buyers coming together on the Reddit sub WallStreetBets, to take on Wall Street and win.
Now Wall Street Memes is bringing the same swashbuckling YOLO spirit to crypto.
Wall Street Memes wants to re-energize the founding ideals of crypto to help the little guy achieve financial freedom by accessing wealth hitherto only available to Wall Street insiders.
Boasting a social community of more than one million switched-on retail investors, Wall Street Memes emerged as a champion of retail investors in the meme stocks movement that kicked off in 2021.
Wall Street Memes coin is the brainchild of the team behind the one million-strong social Wall Street Memes community that grew out of the meme stocks movement. It is today one of the internet’s most influential retail investing communities.
For example, its Wall Street Bets Instagram account alone has 534k followers and another 260,000 on X (formerly Twitter).
It also has over 100k followers across its two other Instagram channels, wallstgonewild and wallstbullsnft.
The launch of the $WSM token is far from being the team’s first venture into crypto, In May this year, the team launched the Wall Street Bulls Ordinals NFT Collection.
Also, the founders of the community famously made $2.5 million when, in 2021, they minted the highly successful Wall Street Bulls 10,000-piece NFT collection, which sold out in 32 minutes.
It is not often that crypto investors get to contribute to a project launched by a team with a proven track record, but Wall Street Memes is one such opportunity.
The WSM posse looks like they have within their grasp the next meme coin to take off, and its expanding utility means it will appeal to serious long-term investors beyond the ranks of the meme coin crowd.
The brand appeal of Wall Street Memes and the continuing success of its sellout presale means that it is already a top coin before it even hits the spot market.
Crypto experts are lining up with bullish forecasts for Wall Street Memes.
YouTube cryptocurrency channel No Bs Crypto, with 33k subscribers, dubs $WSM the most anticipated meme coin launch of 2023.
Next up is YouTuber Joe Parys, with 380k subscribers. He tells his viewers that Wall Street Memes coin could be a 100x crypto.
Another analyst, Michael Wrubel, this time with 310k subscribers on YouTube, issued an urgent warning to his viewers four days ago not to miss out on getting into $WSM before the upcoming tier 1 listings.
Meanwhile, crypto presale analyst Jacob Crypto Bury reckons Wall Street Memes could be the best crypto to buy today, with only six weeks to go before it lists on top exchanges.
Other crypto financial influencers think $WSM could be the next Pepe coin because of its potential to monetize the meme stock movement.
Major crypto news outlets have also been covering Wall Street Memes, among them Coingape, Cryptopotato, Cryptonews, Analytics Insight, U.Today, Outlook India, Finbold, and The Coin Republic.
Given the marketing strength being demonstrated by Wall Street Memes at this relatively early stage in its roadmap and the start of utility-enhancing product rollouts, expect the remaining tokens to be snapped up in short order.
Not only is WSM one of the fairest presales, with no team allocation, it is also rewarding its growing community with the chance to win $50,000.
After investing, you can join the Wall Street Memes competition, where five lucky degens can benefit from a $50,000 $WSM airdrop.
If you are a $WSM token holder, then you can click on the button at the Wall Street Memes Linktree page to complete the steps to qualify for the airdrop.
$WSM can be bought on the Ethereum blockchain and BNB Smart Chain using ETH, BNB, or USDT (ERC-20 or BEP-20). If you wish to stake now, then you must buy with ETH.
You can also buy with a credit or debit card. Whichever route you choose to buy, be sure to do your own research and make sure to only invest what you can afford to lose.
All that prospective buyers need to do is connect their funded crypto wallet on the wallstmemes.com website to make their purchases.
Wall Street Memes is already the king of stonks, and in a few days’ time could be making its first pitch to be the king of meme coins too. Do your own research, but this coin could be about to deliver mind-melting returns for early investors.

JUSTIN ROSE NAMED WINNER OF THE NICKLAUS-JACKLIN AWARD PRESENTED BY AON AT 44TH RYDER CUP
Prestigious Award celebrates player who embodies the true spirit of the Ryder Cup, proving that decisions made here make history
ROME, Oct. 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Justin Rose of Team Europe was announced as the recipient of the Nicklaus-Jacklin Award presented by Aon following the conclusion of the 44th Ryder Cup in Rome, Italy.
Throughout the competition, Rose displayed exemplary character and poise in the face of one of sports’ most compelling atmospheres, all while maintaining sound decision making and representing the true spirit of the event. He has been a stalwart in the Team Europe dressing room, sharing his experience with a young team and leading by example by contributing key momentum building points when it mattered. On day one, Rose holed the decisive putt on the 18th to secure a tie, and his immediate reaction was to turn and acknowledge his teammates who stood beside the green – showcasing his belief that the team should always come first.
Rose was paired with Ryder Cup rookie Robert MacIntyre on day one and used his vast Ryder Cup experience to help guide the young Scotsman during his first Ryder Cup match, in what proved to be a tough battle against Max Homa and Wyndham Clark. On day two, Rose continued his partnership with MacIntyre and they secured a decisive 3&2 victory against Justin Thomas and Jordan Spieth, with Rose’s red-hot putter proving crucial. MacIntyre would go on to have an exceptional debut, collecting 2 ½ points.
Just as the efforts of Jack Nicklaus and Tony Jacklin did in 1969, Rose exemplified the true values of this great game, cementing his place in Ryder Cup history at Marco Simone Golf & Country Club. Rose has become the third player to receive this honor, following Dustin Johnson from the U.S. Team and Sergio Garcia from the European Team, who won the Award at Whistling Straits two years ago.
Inspired by the historic 1969 Concession when Jack Nicklaus conceded a 2-foot putt to Tony Jacklin for a halved match resulting in the first tie in Ryder Cup history, the Award honors two icons in the game and is given to the player who best embodies the true spirit of the Ryder Cup – the individual who sees the bigger picture and makes better decisions on and off the course.
Speaking about winning the Nicklaus-Jacklin Award presented by Aon, Rose said: “Winning this Award is a huge compliment. This event really pushes you to the limit because it has so much passion. You have to find that line and get close to it, but always stay on the right side and be respectful towards your opponent. The Americans played their heart out today and deserve a lot of respect. Novak Djokovic gave the team some advice earlier this week and really emphasized how you need to embrace a pressurized situation and use it as inspiration. The putt on the 18th on day one was a good example of where I tried to embrace the moment – I didn’t want to blemish such a great start by the team, and my immediate reaction was to embrace my teammates who had all performed so well as a group.
“The Ryder Cup is all about teamwork and I managed to put together a strong partnership with Bob. I made some putts at the right time on the first two days that made me look heroic, but he chipped away constantly and made a big contribution just when we needed to keep the momentum going. A big thank you to Aon – winning this Award will make today’s victory even sweeter for me.”
At this year’s Ryder Cup in Rome, Team Europe took victory by 16 ½ -11 ½, after three days filled with iconic pairings, intense rivalry and selfless performances. Team Europe raced to a dominant 6 ½ to 1 ½ lead after day one and preserved their five-point advantage to lead 10 ½ to 5 ½ heading into the final day of singles. A close and hard-fought final day went down to the final few holes, with England’s Tommy Fleetwood delivering the clinching moment in style on the short par-4 16th hole.
“As the 44th Ryder Cup comes to an end, we are reminded that golf is a game shaped by respect, integrity and decision making under pressure,” said Andy Weitz, Chief Marketing Officer of Aon. “This event represents the best of golf, and this Award represents the best of the Ryder Cup. As its presenting partner, we are proud to honor Justin as the recipient of this year’s Nicklaus-Jacklin Award presented by Aon. His display of character and skill throughout an intense match embodied the spirit of this event, and why we love this game.”

EMpact launches its venture studio in Central America, heralding a new approach to impact investing in frontier markets
Plans underway for subsequent launches in Africa and Central Asia
ANTIGUA, Guatemala , Oct. 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Today witnessed the launch of EMpact, a venture studio focused on nurturing talent and accelerating startups to serve critical value chains, focusing on frontier markets in Central America, West Africa, and Central Asia. The first studio is a collaboration between EMpact and Fundación Génesis Empresarial (Genesis), the largest development microfinance institution in Guatemala. The studio will promote entrepreneurship and capacity building across the Central America region through the “Innovation and Entrepreneurship Hub” of Genesis and Universidad Francisco Marroquín – (UFM) a leading academic institution in the country, which promotes free market principles and entrepreneurship.
“The issues facing humanity and our planet are interlinked, and a big part has to do with how we access, cultivate, and sustain natural resources, including agriculture and forestry”, said Sami Lahoud and Prateek Shrivastava, co-founders of EMpact. “Catalyzing innovations in agriculture value chains, through entrepreneurship, creates stability and opportunity in frontier markets while sustaining the global economy and restoring our planet through sustainable practices”, they added.
The studio addresses the most critical issue facing entrepreneurship in frontier markets, which is the upskilling of talent. Individuals are invited to apply to become “EMpact fellows” who will be coached in innovation and entrepreneurship. Then, the studio will help fellows design digitally enabled solutions that address the needs and pain-points of its corporate partners. And finally, incubated businesses will graduate into a startup accelerator that will help each team turn their solutions into investment-ready businesses through mentorship, access to essential shared services, and opening doors to additional corporate partners.
The EMpact model also allows for winning solutions, whether incubated by EMpact or operating independently, to be replicated by fellows in other markets or verticals. The first such portfolio company is Climatica, a solution that accelerates financial inclusion of small holder farmers through climate smart agriculture.
“Fighting poverty through empowerment and improving food security in the face of climate change are daunting and expensive undertakings”, said Lars Saquero Møller, Managing Director of Ingemann Data, that operates Climatica. He added “EMpact provides a framework to scale the outreach of innovative solutions, such as ours, to address these challenges. Their fresh approach and value proposition are needed to disrupt the traditional system.”
The design of the EMpact venture studio has been inspired by the pioneering work of CK Japheth, Founder of The Innovation Village in Uganda and a member of the EMpact Advisory Board, who said “We recognized that embracing models tailored to mature markets would not work for us, so we embarked on a journey of unbridled innovation, fueled by a relentless passion to make a difference. Every lesson we’ve gathered has led us to this vibrant collaboration with EMpact”.
The EMpact studio in Guatemala will ultimately serve the Latin American region. In parallel, the founders of EMpact are preparing for the launch of EMpact Africa from a studio in Côte d’Ivoire serving the Francophone West Africa region. At a later stage, the plan is to include additional frontier markets such as the ones in Central Asia, and to start interconnecting these markets, capitalizing on their organic similarities and complementarities.

The final step in this venture studio model is to extend pre-seed equity funding to the budding startups, handhold them through the initial phase of their growth journey, and then – over time – hand them over to later stage investors.
