Why Is It Moving? SafeMoon trended this week after the project said the release of its highly-anticipated wallet would take place in days.

At press time, the high social media interest remained intact as SAFEMOON topped the list of top 10 trending streams put together by Stocktwits. 

The hashtag “SAFEMOONWALLET” was also featured on an electronic billboard in London’s Picadilly Circus. 

On Wednesday, SafeMoon CEO John Karony suggested a meetup at the billboard.
