What is known about Floki Inu? It is an ERC-20 standard token based on the Ethereum blockchain. In 2021, Elon Musk told Twitter that he wanted to get a Shiba Inu dog and name it Floki. The developers created the cryptocurrency by analogy with the already popular at that time meme coins Dogeсoin (DOGE) and Shiba Inu (SHIB). It has a market capitalization of $140,2 million, according to CoinGecko.
In July, US citizen Keith Johnson sued Elon Musk, as well as his companies, Tesla and SpaceX, claiming that they manipulated the rate of Dogecoin. The prosecutor seeks $86 billion in damages from Musk and $172 billion in moral damages. Johnson also asked the court for a complete ban on the promotion of DOGE for the billionaire.
