Activity around BONK in the past few days has resulted in the growth in the sales of the once-struggling Solana phone. Solana co-founder Raj Gokal confirmed the surge in sales in a recent post on X.

The increase in the phone’s sales volume is tied to the 30 million BONK token airdrop available for every phone owner.
