This week, another bounce in the meme coin space has been observed; this time, the Bonkey (BONKEY) token took center stage. The token, inspired by the blue monkey character, has surged by 15.06% in the last 24 hours to $0.002116. This upward movement has attracted the attention of crypto enthusiasts as well as traders because the meme coin sector has again proven that it can sustain exponential returns.
Bonkey has just started trading in the market; hence, it is ranked #3781 on the cryptocurrency list. However, the token that is ranking the lowest currently has an MC of $2.12 million, showing that investor confidence is rising steadily. For the trading session of the previous day, more precisely, the past 24 hours, the trading volume has surged to $ 159.02K with a trading volume increase of 15.85%, which indicates increased activities on the trading floor.
The FDV ratio of the token to its market cap remains $2,120,000, based on some sources which claim the total provide is in circulation. Bonkey has fixed and maximum of 1 Billion BONKEY tokens, although the project has stated that all tokens are currently circulating. This supply structure you can trace in many meme coins as they usually do not limit themselves with the number of tokens and issue their max supply at the start.
Bonkey is somewhat unconventional, making its backstory part of its selling point. Based on the story behind the project, the token is named after a monkey that went blue after choking on some sibling’s paw. This backstory, though somewhat absurd, fits within the general narrative trends of many meme coins seen in the crypto sphere, which are also usually somewhat ridiculous.
Its ability to resolve a decision to launch the original project on the Base blockchain – Ethereum’s layer-2 scaling solution – could also explain the project’s recent development. The base has been attracting some attention as a new token launchpad, potentially providing lower fees and faster confirmation times than the main net of Ethereum.
Just like most meme coins, Bonkey’s value changes could be as a result of social media trends and a fan base. Hence, it could easily be smelled that ‘liquidity to market cap ratio of 7.51’ is moderate suggesting that early adopters and those who simply speculate in the token market are in an active trading session.
The same concerns investors and traders who sustains the meme tokens like Bonkey, these are highly risky, unpredictable, and highly fluctuating financial assets. At the same time, which is also true for any other stock, there always lurk swift draws, which can be even larger than gains. Likewise, prior research and risk analysis remain crucial when thinking of investment in the cryptocurrency market, and more so in meme coins.
However, whether Bonkey will be capable of sustaining it and ensuring that it becomes a permanent player in the world of evolving digital currency memes and social tokens as it further continues to trade is yet to be seen. For now, the blue monkey meme coin is another episode of yet another episode of the crypto market’s desire to embrace trends and narratives.
