The memecoin’s price rose by 40% after Binance.US opened FLOKI/USD and FLOKI/USDT trading pairs.
The price of the popular meme-inspired cryptocurrency – FLOKI – has soared by more than 40% in the past 24 hours.
The surge happened shortly after the American subsidiary of Binance – Binance.US – listed the asset on its platform.
Binance.US – Binance’s arm designed to serve United States residents – added FLOKI among the supported coins on its platform, saying users can trade it against USD and USDT.
The token’s price reacted positively to the news, rising to approximately $0.00003987: 40% more than the valuation 24 hours ago.
FLOKI has been one of the best performers on the crypto market in the past several months. A possible reason behind that could be Elon Musk’s interaction with it, even if they don’t seem directly correlated at times.
One of the wealthiest people on the planet displayed a sarcastic picture of his dog in February, wearing glasses and signing a contract to become the new CEO of Twitter.
Keeping in mind that his Shiba Inu breed is named Floki, it is no wonder why the price of the dog-themed digital asset – FLOKI – climbed by over 40%.
This was not the first time Musk had triggered a price increase for the memecoin. He dressed his dog in a Santa Claus outfit on Christmas 2021.
FLOKI skyrocketed by 19,000% in the next 48 hours before tumbling shortly after.
