The rally began after BONK established solid support at $0.000024, with buying interest intensifying. Momentum carried through to the early hours of Aug. 13, where the token reached its daily high of $0.000027 between 03:00 and 04:00 UTC.
Trading volumes consistently outpaced the 24-hour average of 956.8 billion tokens, signaling strong participation from both retail traders and larger market players.
However, the gains proved difficult to sustain.
BONK reversed by 1% during the U.S. morning, slipping from $0.000027 to $0.00002646. The heaviest selling pressure came at 12:52 UTC, when a sharp decline accompanied a 38-billion-token volume spike, suggesting profit-taking by larger holders.
As background, BONK’s trading activity comes days after Nasdaq-listed Safety Shot disclosed a $25 million allocation to the token’s ecosystem via Bonk.fun’s launchpad platform. While that announcement preceded this rally, it underscores institutional interest in the project.
With support still intact at $0.000024 and resistance firmly established at $0.000027, traders will be watching closely to see if BONK can break higher in the coming sessions or consolidate before its next major move.
