But what exactly is BONK?

BONK is the first meme token based on the Shiba Inu theme on the Solana blockchain, released in late December 2022. Its introduction coincided with a challenging period for the Solana network, following the downfall of the FTX-Alameda Research duo, causing a loss of investor confidence.

The BONK project conducted an airdrop, distributing tokens to users who met simple conditions, such as early trading and ownership of specified NFTs on the Solana network, accounting for over 50% of the total supply. This strategic move led to a surge in the Solana network’s popularity in 2023.
