A consolidation zone formed between $0.000022848 and $0.000023033, with a breakout attempt at 10:25 GMT accompanied by a volume spike, underscoring building bullish pressure.

Momentum is also soaring on the social front. Posts on X (formerly Twitter) highlight BONK’s milestone flip of TRUMP, making it the fourth largest memecoin by market cap.

The community-powered bonk.fun platform, now commanding 54.7% market share, is credited for driving both user activity and on-chain buybacks.

Users have also pointed to BONK’s vibrant meme ecosystem, anticipating that upcoming art-based campaigns and NFT-style projects could become new growth engines.

Institutional and macro narratives are also aligned. Tuttle Capital’s rumored 2x leveraged BONK ETF has stirred speculation, while dovish Fed signals and global tariff extensions have broadened crypto risk appetite.

With breakout volume, confirmed support, and a hyper-engaged community driving attention across meme culture and DeFi, BONK looks well-positioned for continued upside in the near term.
