The Floki tweets by Musk have attracted huge attention with each having over 100k likes in the first hours of tweeting. Notably, Musk’s favorite Dogecoin has risen approximately 6 percent in the past 24 hours to trade around $.0869. Moreover, Musk has retweeted the idea that dog-themed meme coins are part of the social media’s board of directors.

With Twitter preparing to add payment features, the Floki and Dogecoin community anticipates they will be part of the plan. Thereby giving them real-world utility.

Why Floki?

As one of the top ten meme coins by market capitalization, the Floki ecosystem has grown to a globally traded coin. The Floki coin was recently listed by Australia’s largest exchange CoinSpot. Additionally, the Floki network recently announced a strategic partnership with Pyth Network to launch the FLOKI/USD price feed and integrate Pyth Network oracle within the Floki ecosystem.

The #Floki price feed setup by Pyth Network significantly enhances the utility of the $FLOKI token and unlocks unlimited possibilities for the Floki Ecosystem. This includes key DeFi integrations with lending/borrowing platforms, staking, and much more.
