Solana phone sales skyrocket as degens scramble for pumped-up BONK

At current prices, the free BONK airdrop for Saga owners stands at $877, making it — at least temporarily — a “phone that pays for itself.”

Memecoin hopefuls have been snapping Solana’s crypto phone in droves after a recent price hike for Solana memecoin Bonk (BONK), which has risen more than 1,100% in the last 30 days.
