FLOKI’s price rise since its inception
Launched in June this year, Floki Inu became another dog-themed token, apart from Dogecoin and Shiba Inu to foray into the crypto market, aspiring to surpass its meme-based peers and become the best-known meme coin across the globe.
Floki Inu, which was initially listed for millionths of a cent, witnessed a considerable price rise within a few months of its launch.
It is noted that in August 2021, FLOKI was priced at US$0.00000002. It ascended to US$0.00006 in late October and reached an all-time high at US$0.000405 on November 4.
Floki Inu draws London authorities’ ire
However, the canine-themed coin hasn’t had a smooth sailing always. Some time ago, Floki Inu caught the attention of the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA), the UK's advertising watchdog, for displaying posters throughout London’s subway and on its double-decker buses.
The agency is reviewing this to assess if the crypto has violated any of the firm's rules or not.

Well, Floki Inu is not discouraged by this incident. It is currently working on projects like designing an NFT gaming metaverse, developing a fully functional NFT and merchandise marketplace, and building a content education platform, thereby creating interest and excitement among its investors.
