BONK BONK/USD , the dog-themed meme coin on the Solana SOL/USD network, reached a new all-time high of $0.0000066 on Monday.

What Happened: At the time of writing, BONK was trading an impressive $0.0000061, representing a 24-hour increase of 12%. Meanwhile, Dogecoin DOGE/USD , Shiba Inu SHIB/USD were up 2-4% each.

In the last 30 days, BONK witnessed a 750% increase. This growth can be attributed to the heightened investor interest in Solana, the blockchain platform underpinning BONKs operations.

The surge also comes as KuCoin, a crypto exchange, also listed BONK via the BONK/USDT trading pair. In the last 24 hours, BONK's trading volume has jumped over 270% reaching $182 million.

Parallel to BONKs success, Solana has ascended to become the sixth-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. SOL is still recovering from its fall from an all-time high of nearly $260 recorded in late 2021a peak period for cryptocurrencies, including frontrunners Bitcoin BTC/USD and Ethereum ETH/USD . Even with its tumble to a low near $8 in late 2022, SOL has since made a comeback.
