What Happened: The Solana (CRYPTO: SOL)-based coin accumulated gains of more than 13% in the last 24 hours, outperforming not just the established memecoins, but blue-chip currencies like Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) and Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) as well.

Bonk's trading volume surged 132% to $329.16 million in the last 24 hours, significantly more than coins with a higher market cap like Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: SHIB) and Cardano (CRYPTO: ADA)

With the latest uptick, BONK's weekly gains have risen to 17.52%.

Meanwhile, speculative interest in BONK was on the rise, with most futures traders betting on its price increase. The number of traders holding long positions for BONK surged in relation to those shorting the coin in the last 24 hours, according to Coinglass.
