Here’s some more information about the tokens:

Bonk (BONK) is a cryptocurrency that launched on Christmas Day 2022 as a free airdrop to the Solana blockchain community. It has gained popularity in the Web3 space and operates on the Solana blockchain as a cryptocurrency that emphasizes community involvement and decentralized finance principles.

Bittensor (TAO) is a decentralized network connecting global machine learning models, using Substrate-based blockchain architecture (like Polkadot) and a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism for energy efficiency. TAO tokens incentivize and reward miners for contributing computational resources, are used for transaction fees, governance, and accessing machine learning services — while also playing a role in staking to enhance network security.

Stacks (STX) is a Layer 2 network created with the goal of scaling and bringing decentralized applications (dApps) to Bitcoin (BTC). Stacks uses Bitcoin as its settlement layer and seeks to bring decentralized finance (DeFi) to the Bitcoin network by providing smart-contract-compatible infrastructure. 

Jupiter (JUP) is a decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol on the Solana blockchain that began as a liquidity aggregator for token swaps and has expanded to include perpetual futures. JUP is the governance token of Jupiter and allows community members to vote on key decisions regarding the platform’s development and operations.
