This article covers the recent developments in the Bonk ecosystem and its market performance. We will also discuss the investors’ <a href="/price/optimism-op" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">Optimism</a> as well as its bullish indications. 
## Market Position of Bonk Memecoin

As observed on the table, Bonk is ranked number 6 among memecoins and second among the Solana-based ones. It is also worth noting that Bonk, launched in December 2022, attained its all-time high of $0.05632 on 4 March 2024. On the other hand, it had its all-time low of $0.01725 on 7 November 2023. 
## Positive Funding Rate and Its implication
As of 4 April Bonk looked bullish since it had a descending triangle pattern which hinted at a possible 60% rally. The reason for the continuing bullish momentum is the Bonk investor optimism. The current market bullish sentiment suggests that the Bonk memecoin recovery is on the horizon.

The main challenge that the cryptocurrency may encounter is the waning optimism after the impending correction since many investors may go for profit taking. Also, since the token has a positive funding rate, optimism remains high among investors. The next graph shows the Bonk meme coin funding rate.

A positive funding rate shows that investors are willing to go long in the futures market which indicates strong investor optimism. What this also shows is that traders are willing to pay more to maintain their positions open which attracts much inflows into the market. Conversely, a negative funding rate indicates a bearish market sentiment.

## Bonk’s Rally Potential: Bullish Continuation Pattern Surrounding the Memecoin
Based on the current Bonk Inu technical analysis the funding rate is not the only indicator predicting a potential bullish momentum. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), a technical indicator that shows an asset’s trend direction and momentum, also signals Bonk’s bullish target. 
For example, by the end of the first week of April the MACD indicator showed a strong bullish outlook as the next graph indicates.

As you noted in the picture, on 7 April the MACD indicator was heading towards a bullish crossover, which is far from the zero line indicating a possible strong upward trend reversal. By the same time [the Bonk memecoin was in a descending triangle pattern](https://www.gate.io/learn/articles/what-is-bonk/388 "the Bonk memecoin was in a descending triangle pattern"), characterized by lower highs and steady lows, confirming a trend continuation. The bullish continuation pattern hints on a high probability breakout.

A successful breakout may push the Bonk price to rise by about 62% aiming at a bullish target of $0.00004188. Nonetheless, to attain such a price target the coin should first overcome several resistance levels.

The only thing that has been signalling a possible bearish momentum has been Bonk’s open interest. The open interest, a metric that represents the total number of open interest in derivative contracts, has been declining since mid-March indicating a decrease in both short and long positions.

Based on previous cryptocurrency trends, a decrease in open interest (OI) indicates a possibility of waning investor interest in the memecoin. Notably, if the Bonk price falls below the $0.00002157 key support level it may experience a sharp price fall.
