YouHodler currently features interest rates as high as 12.3% for some stablecoins. YouHodler's embrace of the Metaverse comes during a pivotal moment in the internet's evolution, as the world starts to shift from Web 2.0 to Web 3.0 – or simply Web3.

YouHodler Lists Five New Metaverse Tokens

The metaverse is an elastic concept most easily described as a basic evolution of the internet. It's an online space where people can meet, socialize, shop, and even work using avatars. Unlike a video chat with friends, the metaverse is always there for users to enter and exit at will. The metaverse is not necessarily a new concept but has garnered a lot of attention in recent years, especially with Facebook boss Mark Zuckerberg announcing Facebook's evolution from a social media platform to a metaverse platform.

Since then, other metaverse platforms like Decentraland, SandBox, and more have exploded in user growth, with the price of their native tokens along with it. YouHodler CEO Ilya Volkov states “Web3 and the metaverse represent the next iteration of the internet. At YouHodler, we want to help our clients utilize their crypto in a positive way instead of just buying and holding. Hence, we feel offering new tokens such as these give our clients access to the metaverse's potential combined with our innovative digital asset tools.”
