Coronavirus and the birth of the CoronaCoin
The outbreak of the coronavirus has led to the creation of the so-called ‘CoronaCoin’ – a coronavirus-backed token. The purpose of the CoronaCoin will be to spread awareness and to donate a proportion of funds to the Red Cross for COVID-19 relief.
Nevertheless, sources indicate that the value of the CoronaCoin is expected to increase if the virus continues to spread.
