FLOKI has been working towards pushing beyond the speculative memecoin narrative. Its latest development, a major partnership, highlighted a push towards more utility and a community approach.
The official Floki handle on X revealed that the project secured a strategic partnership with Method. The e-sports organization responsible for the play-to-earn MMO-RPG game, Valhalla.
According to the official report on the matter, Floki aims to use the partnership to expand the reach of its Valhalla metaverse game.
Method has a robust community across multiple platforms, and the partnership reportedly aims to expose Valhalla to that community.
Why The Partnership Could be a Great Opportunity
The partnership between Floki and Method marks the first major attempt at pushing a metaverse game into a large MMO-RPG community. The joint efforts could potentially boost Valhalla’s success in the gaming segment.
It was still too early to determine the potential levels of success that could come from the partnership.
However, if Floki were to achieve considerable success, then it stands to potentially boost demand for the FLOKI token given its utilitarian nature in Valhalla.
The partnership also aligned with Valhalla’s upcoming mainnet, which was slated to launch at the end of June. Floki expects the mainnet launch to speed up Valhalla’s adoption in the MMO segment.
Can FLOKI tap into the Partnership to Achieve a Robust Recovery?
FLOKI has been on an overall downward trend in the last 6 weeks after a previous bullish recovery from April lows.
Even more interesting was that the meme coin delivered an explosive performance in 2024, which pushed its price as high as $0.0034, which was its historic high.
FLOKI’s impressive performance in 2024 saw it deliver over 1,100% upside from its lowest to highest point during the year.
It has so far given up most of those gains, and its press time price tag was equivalent to a 79% discount from its ATH.
This heavy discount suggests that it could potentially deliver another impressive rally, such as the one observed in the first half of 2024. However, it would need a major catalyst for that to happen.
The partnership with Method could potentially reignite investor interest and perhaps even trigger another robust demand wave.
Speaking of demand, spot flows shifted in favor of positive flows since 23 June, indicating potential demand build-up.
However, the prevailing demand remained relatively weak, which means the chances of a major bullish move remained low. The derivatives segment also demonstrated a surge in investor interest.
Open interest surged from $18.76 million on 22 June to $23.95 million as of 28 June. Derivatives volume was up from $33.7 million to $56.7 million in the last 3 days.
These observations further reinforced the observation that sentiment around FLOKI has been shifting.
In addition, bullish expectations were further supported by a favorable ranking in a recent Coingecko survey. This survey listed FLOKI as one of the topmost promising crypto projects with a market cap of less than $1 billion.
The heavily discounted prices and improving market sentiment could potentially work in FLOKI’s favor.
However, it is worth noting that the market sentiment had not yet switched in favor of altcoins and meme coins.
Nevertheless, this suggests that FLOKI might be one of the top coins to consider during the next altcoin rally.
The fact that FLOKI started off as a meme coin but has been working towards building beyond the meme coin narrative could also be in its favor. But how far can it go in case it finds favor with the bulls?
Its potential remains unknown given the many variables involved. Nevertheless, a rally to its previous ATH would deliver over 360% upside.
