  • According to the meme coin project, the native token is olnly tradable on ETH and BNB Chain.

The lates Floki news relates to a warning the meme coin’s team issued this weekend.

Specifically, the crypto community should be careful as there are scams claiming the FLOKI tokens are on Solana and Base, Floki Inu wrote in a social media post.

In a post on the official Floki Inu X account, the meme coin notified its users and the broader crypto community to be wary of such as they are “false and attempts to deceive.”

“It has come to our attention that there are scams claiming Floki has a token on Base or Solana,” the Floki Inu team posted. “Please note: $FLOKI is ONLY tradeable on the $BNB and $ETH chains,” they added.

The project shared the correct contract addresses on Ethereum and BNB Chain, with the ETH as 0xcf0c122c6b73ff809c693db761e7baebe62b6a2e and the BNB address as 0xfb5b838b6cfeedc2873ab27866079ac55363d37e.

Users should be keen not to fall victim of these schemes, and “always verify information from official sources.”

Floki Inu’s warning comes as the crypto market witnesses an explosion in meme coins on Solana and Base. Also happening is a proliferation of scams targeting unsuspecting cryptocurrency enthusiasts and traders, one of which is malicious links to fake tokens.
