However, only DOSI Citizens with Level 2 or above are eligible to participate in this event. DOSI Citizens are categorized into four levels, ranging from Level 1 to Level 4. Users can achieve attendance goals, invite friends, and make NFT transactions to elevate their Citizen status. It’s important to note that this program is not available in some countries, including the United States and Japan.DOSI Land comprises three lands: Emerald Orbit, Sapphire Starlight, and Golden Galaxy. Each land is accessible to Citizen Level 2, Level 3, and Level 4 users, respectively. Every week, a total of 3,000 FNSA will be distributed, with each land offering different chances of winning the token. Furthermore, each land has three zones, and users can participate in one zone per land. Participation in each zone requires DON, a membership point earned based on the total NFT transaction amount, and Level-up Passes, which are needed to improve Citizen status.DOSI operates the DOSI Citizen Membership system, which rewards users based on their contributions to the ecosystem. Alongside DOSI Land, DOSI has also implemented other reward programs such as DOSI Adventure and DOSI Arcade, offering a variety of NFTs to membership owners.As part of its efforts to expand the DOSI ecosystem, LINE NEXT incentivizes FNSA rewards to users actively engaging in DOSI through DOSI Land. The company plans to continue offering various benefits to DOSI users.DOSI’s presenceSince its beta launch, DOSI has attracted 4.6 million membership owners, facilitating over 410,000 transactions and involving 190,000 traders. These figures are as of May 2023.

Hong Kong's financial watchdog, the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC), has issued a stern warning against two crypto investment schemes, namely the "Floki” and “TokenFi” staking programs. Offering high annual returnsThese programs, luring investors with enticing promises of annual returns ranging from 30% to over 100%, have triggered concerns within the regulatory authority due to their lack of authorization and questionable nature. In an update issued on Friday, the SFC emphasized that both Floki and TokenFi's staking offerings have not been granted approval for public offerings. Furthermore, the administrators of these programs have failed to provide convincing explanations about the feasibility of achieving such unusually high returns. The SFC cautioned that engaging in staking arrangements involving virtual assets without proper authorization may constitute unauthorized collective investment schemes.Photo by Sigmund on UnsplashUnsustainable yieldThe watchdog expressed its worry about the legitimacy of these staking programs, highlighting that neither has received the necessary authorization to provide services to the public in Hong Kong. Investors participating in these programs would not be protected under the SFC's regulations, potentially exposing them to significant financial losses. With the failure of many crypto platforms in 2022, a number of industry commentators began to question the sustainability of some public offerings. One such commentator, Allen Farrington, General Partner at bitcoin-native venture capital firm Axiom, repeatedly asked, “Where does the yield come from?” That appears to be the SFC’s concern in this instance. In its statement, it reaffirmed its commitment to upholding regulatory standards and safeguarding investors from fraudulent schemes. It warned that any breach of the law, including the promotion of unlicensed collective investment schemes, will result in appropriate legal action. Elon Musk-inspired meme coinFloki, initially conceived as a meme-coin inspired by Dogecoin, a project associated with Elon Musk, has evolved into a comprehensive Web3 project spanning decentralized finance, NFTs and the metaverse. TokenFi is a crypto and asset tokenization platform under the Floki umbrella, which aims to capitalize on the booming trillion-dollar tokenization industry. TokenFi, denoted by the ticker TOKEN, seeks to simplify the crypto and asset tokenization process with aspirations of becoming a leading platform globally. Launched last October, TokenFi operates as a multichain tokenization platform on both Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain. While both Floki and TokenFi offer distinct staking programs, they share a close integration. Stakers under the Floki scheme gain access to a significant portion of TokenFi's supply, while TokenFi stakers earn TOKEN rewards through a user-friendly interface. In the broader context of crypto staking, the practice allows users to earn rewards by contributing to a blockchain's security through the proof-of-stake mechanism. By staking cryptocurrency, users participate in a staking pool, similar to depositing money into a savings account. Staking rewards typically range from 5-20%, attracting investors seeking profitable opportunities. However, caution is advised against schemes promising unrealistic returns. The SFC, in collaboration with the Hong Kong Police Force, established a dedicated working group last year to enhance vigilance and enforcement in the evolving crypto sector.
