Bonk Takes a Bow: Swiss Exchange Welcomes the Dogecoin Darling with a Wag

Well, hold onto your bowler hats-Bonk, the Solana-based memecoin, has decided to up sticks and parade onto Switzerland’s SIX Swiss Exchange, no less! Now, thanks to Bitcoin Capital’s fancy regulated ETP (that’s a sort of financial sausage, really), you can buy Bonk without the bother of wallets, passwords, or having to explain to your cat what a blockchain is. Cheers to modern convenience, eh?

This move catapults Bonk into one of Europe’s biggest stock markets, turning it from a digital doggy treat into something that can be bought and sold with a flick of your brokerage finger. It’s now officially “the first Solana dog coin for the people, by the people,” a sort of canine crusade for the everyman, or so they claim.

Meanwhile, on a more serious note (or not), Bonk’s price was up about 5.8% on Thursday morning, which is practically a full belly rub. That said, it’s still lounging 83% below its November 2024 peak-somewhere between a pup and a pooch that’s lost its way in the alleyway of crypto fame.

Bitcoin Capital AG, the fine folks behind this canine caper, are Swiss aficionados of crypto exchange-traded products, which sounds a lot fancier than simply buying or selling coins, frankly. Meanwhile, across the pond, the US saw Grayscale’s Dogecoin EFT debut, pulling in a modest $1.4 million on its opening day, while everyone else was expecting a tidy $12 million-such is the joy of speculation!

The Great Memecoin Meltdown of 2025

Ah, memecoins-the digital equivalent of kids trading baseball cards, but with less actual value and more LOLs. They soared in 2024, driven by internet culture and community hype, turning a few savvy traders into overnight millionaires-or so it seemed. But as any fool knows, all good things must… well, go down in a cloud of digital dust.

Take PEPE the frog, for example. That little amphibian saw its value plummet about 83% from its December height. FLOKI, the dog-themed darling, fared only slightly better-down more than 85%. Even the doggish Dogwifhat wobbled more than a drunken sailor, falling over 92% since March. And a few political genius coins-like Trump’s-did even worse, nosediving by nearly 99.6%, proving once again that mixing politics and crypto is about as wise as playing chess with a goose.

As the ruling market value of memecoins dipped into the $39.4 billion abyss-losing about $5 billion in a single day-one can only wonder if the memecoin party has finally called it a night. Or perhaps, just perhaps, it’s nap time for this peculiar, pet-themed, and politically charged digital zoo.
