Floki Inu ($FLOKI): A meme-based cryptocurrency (like Dogecoin), inspired by Elon Musk’s Shiba Inu dog named Floki. Launched in 2021 as an ERC-20 token on Ethereum, it’s tied to NFTs and gaming, with a volatile price driven by Musk’s tweets and community hype. Historical Floki: Hrafna-Flóki VilgerðarsonWho Was He?: A 9th-century Norwegian Viking (c. 830–after 868), among the first to intentionally discover and settle Iceland. Known as "Raven-Floki" for using three ravens to navigate and find land.
Story: Around 868, he sailed west from Norway with his family (wife Gró and children) after hearing of new lands. He landed in Faxaflói Bay (near Reykjavik), explored Iceland, but faced a harsh winter, naming it "Ísland" (Iceland) due to icy fjords. Though initially disappointed, he returned and encouraged further settlement.
Legacy: A pioneer of Iceland’s settlement, documented in the Landnámabók (Book of Settlements). Unlike the series, he had no connection to Ragnar Lothbrok.
Death: Likely in Iceland, possibly in a cave during a volcanic event.
