Recent actions by a major investor have sparked discussion in the crypto community. A well-known whale sold a large amount of Solana tokens to purchase meme tokens $WIF and $BONK.

Selling SOL and Buying Meme Tokens

The major investor offloaded 12,400 SOL, valued at $2.7 million, to acquire meme tokens. Specifically, 7,200 SOL ($1.57 million) were exchanged for 406,000 $WIF tokens at $3.87 each, and 5,200 SOL ($1.13 million) were used to purchase 29.32 billion $BONK tokens at $0.0000387 each.

Market Reaction and Price Changes

This investment prompted an immediate price surge: $WIF rose by 44% and $BONK increased by 31%. Given their lower liquidity and market cap, large transactions significantly influence market prices.

Solana’s Price Movement

Meanwhile, Solana (SOL) reported a significant 13.53% increase in trading volume. Despite this, SOL's market cap reached $102.51 billion, maintaining its position as a leading cryptocurrency. Current data suggests moderate buying pressure, indicating a potential continuation of the bullish trend.

The whale's significant investments critically impacted the $WIF and $BONK prices, highlighting their volatility and market influence. Solana maintains a steady position, which may indicate continued growth.
