Why It Matters: Elon’s Marvin, named after Tesla Inc. TSLA CEO Elon Musk’s Havanese dog Marvin, describes itself as a token on the Binance Smart Chain (BSC) that is the “little brother” of cryptocurrency Floki Inu FLOKI/USD.

The project behind the token announced on Twitter earlier on Sunday that it has migrated from its old contract to a new one and burned 1 million Marvin coins.

Doge Rise Up says it is a token launched on BSC that combines the Metaverse with Dogecoin, alongside “cool” designs and non fungible tokens (NFTs). The token touched an all-time high of $0.00000004707 on Dec. 10.

Shakita Inu describes itself as the “Shiba Inu killer.” The project behind the lotto token says it is currently developing a play-to-earn game for its community.

The coin noted on Twitter that it is among the top daily gainers on CoinMarketCap.

GamingDoge says its ecosystem will bring the power of a decentralized exchange, NFT Games and an NFT marketplace.

The coin said on Twitter that it is trending on CoinMarketCap and is close to completing GamingDogeSwap, a decentralized exchange where users can swap any BEP-20 token for another one.
