Social media participation will trigger burns of 1,000 BONK for each #LetsBONK post on X. At the same time, new followers across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube will result in 10,000 BONK burns per platform. The campaign extends to various ecosystem activities.

BONK has established itself as a key meme coin in the Solana ecosystem, with its $3.49 billion market cap placing it just behind dogwifhat’s $3.75 billion valuation.

The DAO’s burn initiative spans multiple platforms and activities within the BONK ecosystem, including gaming, social media, and trading activities.
