Notably, FLOKI’s play-to-earn game Valhalla, which launched on opBNB mainnet on July 1, recently surpassed 1 million transactions and saw 125,000 NFTs minted. Vidal highlighted this utility-driven milestone, which has attracted both meme coin speculators and ecosystem supporters.
At the time of writing, FLOKI is trading around $0.00013, climbing over 70% in the past month and adding over $510 million to its market cap. The recent rally aligns with the broader memecoin sector’s momentum, which has seen a $18 billion increase in valuation since the beginning of July.
On the weekly chart, FLOKI has broken through two major resistance barriers that had held since February: the $0.000110 horizontal resistance and a long-standing diagonal trend line.

After failing to reclaim these levels in May, the token gained momentum in June, resulting in a decisive breakout this week.
Despite the surge, FLOKI remains 62% below its all-time high of $0.0003462 set in June 2024, leaving room for further upside. Popular crypto analyst Javon Marks expressed bullish sentiment, predicting another potential 100% gain if momentum sustains.
