Come over and join the $SOMBRERO Meme Contest 2 Million tokens up for grabs for the community ending March 31st Midnight 12 PM EST LetsBONK together to get back to bagworking. @bonkfun @SolportTom @satsdats @chimpp are making the trenches a better place and to help further the betterment of our space, I am using my own personal funds for the Top 3 Winners for this contest. All CTO fees are still being used for buybacks into the chart. Lets do this and make 2026 truly the biggest fiesta the world has ever seen!

Big news from BONKfun: They're launching the Bagwork Bounties — a $50,000 program to help bring back real grassroots energy to the Solana memecoin space. Over the next 7 days, $7,000 will be awarded daily to 7 standout new communities launching in Balanced Mode. Evaluation criteria include: CTO leadership and effort Content quality Organic community growth On-chain metrics Extra points for building active Telegram groups and reviving those authentic old-school vibes. To qualify, projects must maintain at least $100K market cap throughout the period. BONKfun will be monitoring closely for any manipulation or artificial engagement — those will be disqualified. Winners expected to be announced on or shortly after April 1st. This is a solid move to incentivize genuine bagworking and strong community building on Solana. Respect to the BONK ecosystem for putting real capital behind it.

@garbinsky182 @0xAvast @SolportTom agreed

Agree with almost everything in here except the 2nd point. The support they've shown (or not shown) always seems to be what coins they were directly invested in versus not seeing the bigger picture or propping up massive, viral memes (67, sombrero, etc) because they personally didn't understand. You should support all coins that gain mindshare/traction regardless and help raise the tides. Also need to consider onboarding smaller accounts and cultivate stronger communities built from the ground up instead of a couple logo slap/badges to 50K+ followings with name but don't represent the people they're supposed to be serving. Your reputation is who you surround yourself with and who you do or don't cosign.

Hey @SolportTom, here's some raw feedback as someone who wants to see the bonk eco thrive as I've been supporting bonk and building in the bonk eco for a while now. > There are extremely talented people looking to build in the bonk eco > The hate on bonk is forced and it's mostly stems from people who are frustrated that the Bonk team didn't hard shill their projects or hardcore pump supporters. (+ the fact that the bonkfun team did do some mistakes during the first bonkfun run up, but this space literally supports ruggers if it makes them money so let's not pretend like Bonk mfs are evil lol) > In people's mind, bonk coins can only do well if they get 'crimed', the thesis for bonk coins is often "tom/bonk guy might see this" or "they could crime this". > BonkFun is seen as the launchpad for trump/political memes which imo, shouldn't be the case at all. But this is mainly due to the fact that you've been focusing on USD1 pairs for months without showing love to older pairs or established communities. > Talking about older pairs, the eco is currently driving builders away as people who launched on bonkfun a while ago and have been grinding for months do not seem to be considered by the bonkfun team at all. I've experienced that first hand as the dev of a relatively old bonk coin+ this is the feedback I've gotten after talking with multiple OG bonk projects + pumpfun migrators. Bonkfun wants to get mindshare back and drive volume to the bonk eco and I understand most of the volume comes from new pairs which is why you're only doing contests, updates, etc...for new pairs. But I believe the bonk eco and the space as a whole would benefit a lot from Bonk/the bonk team supporting projects, teams, communities that don't give up over night. > If you want the bonk eco to thrive, that means ALL of the bonk eco, not whatever token launched after y'all pushed an update. > I've said this before and it still hasn't been fixed: the BonkFun website UI/UX is bordeline unusable. I want to be able to buy stuff on bonk or check my profile without getting a headache. The bonk/bonkfun team is extremely talented yet the bonkfun website doesn't reflect that at all. Atm Pump/Bonk are only incentivizing the launch of new pairs which is the main issue the trenches have rn: people are deploying more, they're not putting any effort in, coins die fast and therefore people hold less. We need culture coins and communities back. We need bag workers to be winning, not serial deployers and 30s average hold time traders. As I said above, I've been supporting Bonk/Bonkfun for months and I will keep doing so. I've voiced my concerns/opinions multiple times and have always been ignored, but I really want the Bonk eco to win so I'll keep doing it over and over until something changes. Let's win @SolportTom.

The $sombrero community on USD1 still grinds daily for the eco With over 300 Million combined views from only 2 accounts, and the President, White House and major High ranking politicians as our KOL, we are meant for greatness This space needs retail outside of CT to join the trenches, and 150 Million MAGA American's would love the opportunity to buy Sombrero @SolportTom

@seeexbt We need to bring retail into this space, the current environment is not conducive to people outside CT

Bonk fun got active at exactly March 20th but something has went extremely since then since bonk return, total solana traders has gone extremely down. the day bonk returned we had 852k people onchain. 2 days later we had 708k traders on chain losing over 150k traders. today, 4 days after, we have just 630k traders on chain losing over 220k traders. any reason to why this is happening?? proof in pictures below. link to verify dune data in comments 👇👇

@imperooterxbt don't fade $sombrero We have the President, White House and high ranking politicians like JD Vance as our KOLS Its the most widely used and viral political meme in history

@poe_real69 do you understand $sombrero?

I still don’t understand what captcha is 🤣

@SolportTom @a1lon9 @AxiomExchange @TradingTerminal Vamps suck ass and the entire space needs to work together to become great again

We can all agree that vamps suck ass Need to work together to solve it. Calling out to @a1lon9, @AxiomExchange, @TradingTerminal, fomo and whoever else. Yes there’ll be less money in fees but a better space = this will last longer.

@RoundtableSpace Don't fade the President's Meme

Who’s active right now?

@dogecoin You know you've made it when the President posts your meme for 6 months straight and you suddenly have the most widely used and viral political meme ever $sombrero

for memecoins to reach escape velocity you need a group of early mentally handicapped holders who just will not sell
