Can Honk Flip Bonk?

The recent growth of the Solana ecosystem was backed substantially by meme coins Bonk, Dogwifhat, Myro, and others. Honk tries to flip Solana’s top Bonk meme coin, which currently has a $613 million market cap.

Bonk has a huge following and holders after the recent airdrop, which even caused Solana Mobile Saga smartphone to go sold out as people rushed to buy the smartphone to get free BONK airdrops.

Meanwhile, Honk has a market cap of just $11.44 million and a max token supply of 1 billion. Interestingly, Honk has a unique tokenomics structure, featuring a 0% tax on transactions, making it a user-friendly and attractive investment.

Honk said the Instagram advertising campaign for the meme crypto was a massive success, pushing it into the trending sections for both CoinMarketCap and Solana.
