Floki is a management token in the ecosystem of the same name, which includes a gaming meta-universe, an NFT marketplace, the DeFi-project FlokiFi, and an educational crypto platform.

On Feb. 15, the billionaire posted a photo of his pet on the social network and named him the new CEO of Twitter, noting that Floki is good with numbers.

"The new Twitter CEO is amazing," the billionaire wrote.

Ilon Musk revealed the "new adorable Twitter CEO."
