BONK is a Solana-based community token that launched on December 25, 2022 and became known for distributing 50% of its original 100 trillion token supply to participants across the Solana ecosystem. The original distribution targeted Solana NFT projects, market participants and DeFi users, artists and collectors, and developers rather than functioning as a general SOL-holder giveaway. BONK subsequently expanded into DeFi, NFTs, gaming, payments, trading infrastructure, and other ecosystem integrations. The original BONK airdrop is completed and should be treated as historical, while later campaigns such as BONKmas represented separate reward programs rather than a continuation of the original 2022 distribution.
