BONK—Solana’s favorite meme pup—just pumped 26% in a week, while Dogecoin and Shiba Inu have been dragging their tails. According to CoinGecko, BONK’s been wagging hard lately, riding the Solana ecosystem wave.
So what’s behind the BONK surge?
Why BONK Is Outpacing Dogecoin and Shiba Inu
1. Solana’s Heating Up
Solana’s having a moment. After the network survived its recent congestion FUD and kept fees lower than a Tesco meal deal, projects are thriving—and BONK is riding shotgun. More Solana = more BONK exposure.
2. Utility Is Creeping In
Unlike DOGE (still just vibing) and SHIB (busy building a whole DeFi kingdom), BONK’s making moves in NFT drops, DeFi integrations, and community rewards. It’s not just memes—it’s memes with purpose.
3. Community & Hype
Crypto is 50% tech and 50% “vibes.” And BONK’s community is out here vibing hard. With Solana influencers and projects backing it, plus listings on major exchanges, BONK is no longer the underdog—it’s front of pack.
4. Underdog Advantage
Everyone knows DOGE and SHIB. BONK? Still flying under the radar for normies. That means more upside, more speculative excitement, and more reasons for degens to ape in.
Chart Talk: Numbers Don’t Lie
According to Benzinga, BONK has outperformed DOGE and SHIB on every timeframe this week.
• BONK: +26% (7D)
• DOGE: +9%
• SHIB: +2%
That’s not just a rally—that’s BONK lapping the competition.
Should You FOMO Into BONK?
Let’s not get too excited. Yes, BONK is up. But meme coins are volatile beasts. They bark loud—but they can also bite.
Our take?
If you’re into memes with momentum and want Solana exposure without going full degen—BONK is a strong bet for now. But treat it like hot sauce: a little can add flavor, too much might burn you.

Final Bark from H.K
As always, watch the charts but read the room. Meme coins run on community energy, and right now BONK’s got a full tank. Just remember—it’s not about who barked first, but who bites last.
