BONK hits new all-time high following Upbit listing

BONK has emerged as the top gainer among the leading 100 assets following a major announcement from the South Korean crypto exchange Upbit.

Bonk (BONK), the first Solana-based meme coin, surged 18% on Wednesday to hit a new all-time high of $0.000058. Its market cap soared to over $4.1 billion when writing, flipping Dogwifhat’s (WIF) $3.2 billion market cap to reclaim its position as the largest meme coin on the Solana blockchain.

Why is BONK going up?

The altcoin’s price uptick coincided with a jump in the meme coin’s futures open interest. According to data from CoinGlass, OI for BONK’s futures market rose to an all-time high of $53.5 million, more than 7 times its monthly low of $6.3 million, suggesting a growing demand from investors.

Bonk’s recent rally followed its listing on South Korea’s largest crypto exchange, Upbit. BONK’s daily trading volume shot up 95% amid the listing, hovering over $3.5 billion when writing.

Another key factor driving the altcoin’s gains is Bonk DAO’s announcement of a massive 1 trillion token burn scheduled for Christmas Day, which is set to reduce the total number of tokens in circulation, thereby increasing scarcity.

Whales have also been interested in the meme coin lately. According to data shared by Lookonchain, a whale with a history of profitable meme coin investments has spent 3.4 million USDC to buy 65.4 billion BONK tokens. Last week, another whale was seen picking up 29.32 billion BONK at $0.0000387.

Whale buying typically boosts retail investor confidence in an asset, potentially driving FOMO (fear of missing out) among those seeking quick gains.

Bullish momentum to continue

BONK’s rally hasn’t lost strength despite surging over 72% in the past week alone. On the 1-day BONK/USDT price chart, BONK’s EMA lines show a strong bullish trend, with the short-term 50-day EMA above the long-term 200-day EMA and the price staying above both lines.

Based on this setup, the bullish trend is expected to continue in the short term as the buyers remain in control. However, the Relative Strength Index showed a reading of 82, which confirms the bullish momentum but puts the meme coin at overbought levels.

Despite the overbought status, an analyst suggests that BONK is undergoing a ‘Blue Sky breakout,’ which could sustain its upward trajectory in the coming days. 

This speculation is supported by strong catalysts driving the uptrend and the current hype around meme coins. Separately, Bitcoin’s recent rally to new highs has amplified market-wide sentiment, further boosting interest in the meme coin sector, which gained 2.3% over the past day.
