In April this year, due to the communitys dissatisfaction with pumps sale of SOL, a launchpad melee to besiege pump.fun began. Shaws auto.fun, dingalings boop.fun and bonks letsbonk.fun all experienced a brief period of fomo and then returned to silence.
On June 4, Tom, the founder of the Letsbonk.fun platform, announced that he would announce the benefits of the Bonk ecosystem, including hosting hackathons, repurchasing $USELESS, $HOSICO and other tokens. The Bonk ecosystem has gradually recovered. Recently, the market value of the leading ecological coin $USELESS exceeded 100 million US dollars, which once again opened the ceiling for the platform and rekindled the enthusiasm of the community. This article shares five high-quality targets of the Bonk ecosystem.
$USELESS: A useless faith experiment
If you missed $PEPE and $FARTCOIN, youd better take a serious look at $USELESS this time. This is a target that Bonk Guy has recommended and heavily invested in many long articles. Its narrative is to use the ridicule of Crypto is useless from mainstream elites such as Bill Gates and Jamie Dimon to reversely construct a self-deprecating, useless, but highly viral Meme narrative system.
This is a token that does not need any disguise: it does not use the banner of Layer1, AI, or RWA, but directly tells all traders that the token is useless; the more it rises, the more useless it is, and the more useless it is, the more it rises. When the news media published the headline: $USELESS market value exceeds 100 million US dollars, it became the strongest advertisement.
Bonk Guys performance also confirms this point: $USELESS, which cost 400,000 US dollars to build a position, has now obtained 1.8 million US dollars, a return rate of nearly 5 times.
$HOSICO: The first meme coin to unlock the platform cap
Hosico is a project launched on the first day of the BONK platform’s launch. It is also a key target for unlocking the platform’s early upper limit, with its highest market value exceeding US$50 million.
Its prototype is the orange cat with 1.8 million followers on Instagram. The token team created Hosicos cosmic view in a warm narrative way: Child of the Stars, Guardian of Lost Dreams, a meme coin born for wishes.
Tom, the founder of the Letsbonk.fun platform, has reposted Hosico content on X many times and expressed his support. With an active community, unique visual style and strong communication power, it is the pure meme token with the most brand potential in the current ecosystem.
$IKUN: Building a bridge between the Bonk ecosystem and the Chinese market
$IKUN is the most widely circulated meme on the Chinese Internet. It originated from the popular meme of the background music Just Because You Are So Beautiful that appeared in the basketball scene of the Chinese star Cai Xukun in the variety show Idol Producer. Its adapted version is widely popular on Chinese social media. It has also inspired the creative enthusiasm of netizens, resulting in a large number of secondary works.
$IKUN is more than just a funny project, it carries the respect of the Bonk platform for the Chinese and its determination to expand the Chinese market. The project team has clearly connected with the Chinese community, and people like Bonk Guy and Tom have personally entered the market to purchase or support it, showing their recognition of the project as a bridge for Chinese narratives.
$NYLA: Community-led AI Agent
NYLA’s functions revolve around “tweet as action”: it is an agent that combines Eliza and Siri, and can trade, transfer, issue coins, and archive through X posts. In the future, it will even be connected to on-chain fund analysis and smart CA tracking. The token market value was once close to 10m.
Dev @shax_btc has a strong background. He used to work at JPMorgan Chase and was responsible for data mining for the Trump campaign team. He has a good personal relationship with Tom and received Toms attention in the early stages of the project. Tom also used his wallet to personally purchase $Nyla to show his support.
In addition, $NYLA is an AI project with little meme-like feeling. Its visual level fully matches the aesthetic style of the Bonk platform. It has created many Bonk-style pictures and attracted many members to join the community to build it together.
$DEL: The Dark Horse of the Hackathon
Delegate.fun is a codeless automation platform built on the Solana blockchain, featuring a codeless on-chain operation automation solution. Through the Delegate wallet + Trigger task flow mechanism, users can complete complex operations such as airdrops, destruction, lock-ups, Launchpad integration, etc. without writing contracts.
Recently, the Bonk platform held a one-month hackathon competition to encourage more devs to create technical tokens on Letsbonk.fun. The prize pool is $200,000, and the first place prize is as high as $140,000. They can also continue to receive 1% of the project transaction fees. The current first place is Delegate.fun. Influenced by this news, its token $DEL has achieved a dozens of times increase in two days.
Summarize
Bonk is experiencing a critical moment of ecological self-reconstruction. The founder personally took action to rebuild market confidence - from actively creating the platforms leading token, launching hackathon competitions, to repurchasing and supporting community tokens such as $USELESS and $HOSICO, and supporting builders who truly work on the chain.
In such a stage driven by community consensus and with a gradually clearer narrative, more and more developers and players are returning. More people come to play, more funds and resources flow in, forming a truly self-consistent ecological closed loop. In the context of the overall market sentiment not yet being repaired, this endogenous growth of the Bonk ecosystem is particularly precious. For participants willing to bet, now may be the starting point for the next round of narrative.
