Bonk's recent price increase may not have been simply due to the meme coin rally; it could also have been spurred by a significant proposal to burn 280 billion BONK tokens.
As announced in a tweet, BONK DAO, BONK's decentralized arm, has received a proposal to burn 280 billion BONK from its Treasury.
BONK DAO intends to burn 278,393,137,215 BONK from its Treasury, accounting for 100% of the BONK generated by BONK DAO under its revenue-sharing agreement with BONKBot since its establishment in late 2023.
