The post BONK’s $52M Token Burn : Is a 30% Rally on the Horizon? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
BONK, one of Solana’s popular meme tokens, is trading at $0.000031, close to its one-month low. This marks a significant drop from its November 22 peak of $0.000053. Open interest in BONK has also fallen to $8.32 million, the lowest in three months, as traders shift their focus to other assets. Despite these setbacks, BONK remains a low-cost token with a strong community and hopes of regaining its top spot in the meme token market.
Based on community participation in Burnmas, the amended vote has passed and 1.69 Trillion $BONK has been burnt from the @bonk_dao multisigThe Total Supply of $BONK is now down to 91 Trillion Tokens from it's original 100 Trillion #LetsBONK

Massive Token Burn to Revive Interest
In a big move to boost its value, Bonk DAO burned 1.69 trillion tokens, reducing the total supply from 100 trillion to 91 trillion. This burn, worth over $52 million, was approved by 99% of the community and completed in a single Solana transaction. The burn was part of BONK’s second-anniversary celebration, aiming to reduce supply and make the token more valuable.
Community Participation
The token burn campaign, which ran from November 15 to December 25, involved the community through social media activities and collaborations with ecosystem partners. Bonk DAO’s wallet still holds 9% of the total supply, making it the largest holder, even surpassing Binance. Additionally, 4.8% of the supply is locked in staking pools, further limiting the number of tokens in circulation.
Challenges and Competition
Despite this significant token burn, BONK’s price has not seen a major rally. Newer Solana meme tokens like Pudgy Penguins’ PENGU and DogWifHat (WIF) are gaining popularity. PENGU, with a market cap of $2.4 billion, has surpassed BONK as the leading Solana meme token. However, BONK remains optimistic about its future, banking on its strong community, wide presence across 11 chains, and listings on major exchanges.
