FLOKI TVL hits milestone within a week of staking going live
FLOKI ecosystem’s staking went live a week ago and it hit $54.4 million. FLOKI tokens worth $54.4 million were locked in the FLOKI staking program. This number represents 17% of FLOKI’s total supply and 18% of the asset’s circulating supply, based on statistics shared by the official X handle of the meme coin.
It is key to note that staked tokens are pulled out of circulation. A majority of the staked assets will remain locked in the program for as long as four years and this reduces the volume of tokens in circulation. Typically, this is bullish for the asset’s price.
FLOKI staked in the staking program
Over 50% of FLOKI’s sister token TOKEN supply has been allocated to stakers and users can earn these tokens over a period of 4 years -- with an APY of up to 160%. Staking FLOKI tokens allows users to earn TokenFi’s TOKEN.
FLOKI is trading at $0.00003132 and yielded 4% gains on the day. FLOKI is likely to sustain its gains and continue its uptrend as the selling pressure on the meme coin across centralized exchanges reduces, with the staking program gaining popularity among market participants.
