BONK shifts 51% of platform fees to DAT purchases as BNKK strengthens holdings

The BONK team announced major changes in fee structure and revenue. This was done in a bid to boost BNKK’s DAT purchases as it looks to expand holdings.

New Fee Model to Boost BONK DAT Buys

In a post recently made on X, Bonk.fun announced it had implemented a shift in how its fees are allocated. This would redirect a larger share to token accumulation under the DAT managed by Bonk Holdings Inc. (BNKK).

Starting today, 51% of all the fees collected from Bonk.fun will be used to fund BNKK’s DAT purchases. This significantly increases the previous 10%.

To this end, the platform is reallocating its former 35% buy-and-burn allocation, in addition to portions from SBR and BONK Rewards. Community-focused budgets will not be touched.  Even as sources of the fees have changed, the platform insisted that overall buy pressure on the meme coin remains the same.

This restructuring follows the purchase by BNKK in October. The firm completed its acquisition $32 million worth of the token to establish its DAT officially. The firm also outlined intentions to double its holdings in the coming months.

The company boosted its position yesterday with the acquisition of a majority revenue interest in the platform. It was valued at about $30 million. 

BNKK board director Mitchell Rudy also explained the move as one aimed at enhancing the company’s capability of accumulating and holding BONK.

“By organizing a majority 51% revenue interest, we are supercharging the Company’s ability to solidify a dominant position in BONK supply.We are building a fortress balance sheet that locks in long-term value” he said.

Importantly, Bonk.fun has generated almost $30 million in revenue in July 2025 alone. This proves its capability for robust liquidity in favorable market cycles.

Bonk.inu Enters European Markets After Listing of First ETP

Last week, Bitcoin Capital AG launched the first-ever BONK ETP on Switzerland’s SIX Exchange. With the listing, retail and institutional investors alike can easily get into the token without the need for a digital wallet.

Bitcoin Capital CEO Marcel Niederberger highlighted how easy the new product is to use.

“With the Bonk ETP now listed on SIX Swiss Exchange, it has never been easier to invest in Bonk. Investors do not need crypto expertise; they can trade it like any other stock,” he said.

The ETP is also fully-backed meaning tokens held in reserve back it on a physical level for every share issued. However, the token’s price has yet to make any major move. It has basically stayed put to its level at the time of the ETP’s debut.
