Key Takeaways
Solana-based memecoin BONK surged to a six-month high over the weekend, defying expectations of capital rotation ahead of the PUMP token Initial Coin Offering (ICO) on Pump.fun.
While some speculated that the new PUMP token would siphon attention and liquidity away from the BONK ecosystem, the meme coin extended its month-long rally to $0.000027.
So, what’s next for BONK as the PUMP token prepares to enter the open market? Let’s find out.
On July 12, Pump.fun concluded its much-anticipated PUMP token sale, raising a staggering $500 million.
Up to the event, concerns circulated that the ICO could drain liquidity from BONK, particularly as LetsBonk — a competing launchpad — had been steadily taking market share from Pump.fun.
Yet, those fears never materialized. Contrary to expectations, BONK’s price continued climbing, shrugging off any impact from the capital inflow into PUMP. In fact, the memecoin extended its rally, with its value soaring nearly 80% in the past 30 days.
From a technical perspective, the 4-hour chart shows that the meme coin resisted downward pressure each time sellers attempted to lower the price.
At one point, BONK dropped to $0.000020, only to rebound. The price again slid during the heightened anticipation surrounding the PUMP token ICO.
This time, to $0.000022, buyers stepped in once more, driving a recovery.
These consistent recoveries suggest that buyers remain in control. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) also backed the thesis.

Interestingly, LetsBonk.fun still captured about 67% of the total launchpad volume last week despite the PUMP ICO. Should this trend continue, it could help accelerate the BONK price’s extended rally.
CCN’s daily BONK/USD chart analysis reinforces the bullish sentiment surrounding the Solana-based memecoin. During this timeframe, BONK successfully broke out of a falling wedge.
Adding to the momentum, the Money Flow Index (MFI) has surged to 90.65, signaling intense buying pressure.
Typically, an MFI reading above 80 suggests that an asset is in overbought territory, but in the context of a fresh breakout, it also confirms strong capital inflows backing the move.
If buying momentum persists, BONK’s price could challenge and break the $0.000034 resistance. In addition, the Awesome Oscillator (AO) has turned positive, indicating rising bullish momentum.
If this position remains the same, the BONK memecoin might rise toward $0.000047. In a highly bullish scenario, it could climb to $0.000059.

Alternatively, a decline in demand for the token might invalidate this bias.
Should that be the case, BONK might slide below the upper trendline of the wedge pattern.
