Floki Up 45% On The Month, Votes On 15B Token Burn: 'Mirroring The Movement Of Pepe,' Says Trader

Floki’s FLOKI/USD bullish performance, boasted by a proposal to burn 15 billion FLOKI, has traders comparing it with Pepe PEPE/USD.

What Happened: Heavily followed crypto trader Cold Blooded Shiller predicts more strength for Floki compared to Bonk BONK/USD. He also reveals his exposure to the entire VanEck meme index, indicating his continued interest and investment in meme-based cryptocurrencies.

Another crypto trader recognizes that Floki's presence is "looking fabulous" and with Bitcoin gearing up for its next leg, "things could go higher faster than we think."

He also notes the performance of Floki/Pepe, which he believes is reacting very well at this key level "from which it doubled 2 times in 3-4 days."

Swing trader and technical analyst Murfski targets a 40% move from current prices for Floki, based on "clear signs of a bottoming formation." He deems it one of the stronger memes in recent weeks.

Floki tallied 45% month-on-month gains, while Dogecoin DOGE/USD is down 7% in the same period. Shiba Inu SHIB/USD and Dogwifhat WIF/USD report marginal gains of 3% and 4%, respectively. Bonk and Pepe saw an increase of 50% and 94% over the same time frame, respectively.

The performance has crypto traders comparing Floki to Pepe, which recently hit a new all-time high.
