Shiba Inu vs 
FLOKI
Both are dog-themed Ethereum-era memecoins that tried to grow into ecosystems. Shiba Inu built out an exchange and its own layer-2 network, Shibarium, and retains a very large holder base. Floki has pushed into games and merchandise with aggressive marketing. In both cases the ecosystem arrived long after the token, which is the reverse of how utility usually justifies a valuation.
