In March, the dog-themed memecoin unveiled its roadmap for 2024, revealing several upcoming features and utility-focused initiatives. The plans include regulated digital banking accounts, enabling users to create and fund bank accounts using FLOKI tokens.

The roadmap includes a partnership with a licensed fintech firm that will enable digital bank accounts with Swift payments and SEPA IBAN capabilities, expanding across Canada, Spain, Dominica, Australia and the United Arab Emirates.

In January, the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) cautioned the public about the “Floki Staking Program” and “TokenFi Staking Program.”

The SFC noted that these products provide staking services and promise annualized returns from 30% to over 100%. Despite this, they lack authorization for public sale in Hong Kong.
