Genesis is the fair-launch campaign for Bonker's own token, $BONKER. There's no presale and no VC allocation — $BONKER deploys through Bonker's own factory exactly like every other token on the platform, with the same locked liquidity, MEV sniper auction, and dynamic fees. The lead-up to launch is a referral allowlist that decides your airdrop weight.
How to join
- Cast
@bonkerwtf joinon Farcaster — the /genesis page has a one-tap "Cast to join" button that opens a Warpcast compose intent - Or run the X quest — follow @bonker_wtf, reply to the pinned launch post tagging 2 friends, and connect your wallet on /genesis
- Or just log in with X or Farcaster from the navbar — Farcaster login qualifies instantly (same gate as casting to join); X login still needs the tweet-reply step above to qualify (see Account & Social Login)
- Any of the above records your verified wallet and adds you to the allowlist — share your link (
bonker.wtf/genesis?ref=<your_fid>) to bring referrals and climb the live leaderboard
Sybil resistance
Joining is gasless and wallet-free, so qualification is gated to keep the allowlist real:
- Neynar user score — the caster's account must clear a minimum quality score before their join is recorded
- Referral qualification — a referral only counts toward the referrer's airdrop weight once the referred account itself qualifies
$BONKER supply (100B fixed)
| Allocation | Share | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Liquidity | 87% | Single-sided LP, permanently locked via the LP Locker — same mechanism every Bonker token uses |
| Genesis airdrop | 3% | Merkle-distributed to the genesis allowlist, weighted by qualified referrals plus a flat bonus for members who launched a token through Bonker |
| Vault | 10% | Reserved supply on a lockup + linear vesting schedule, same BonkerVault extension available to any launch |
No team or investor pre-allocation outside the genesis reserve above.
Claiming the airdrop
Once the genesis token deploys and the operator sets the Merkle root, /genesis/claim looks up your connected wallet's allocation and proof and calls the airdrop contract's claim function directly. Claimed tokens are subject to a 7-day lockup followed by a 90-day linear vest. Until the root is set the page shows a "claim opens at genesis" state — there's nothing to claim before the token exists.
Why $BONKER exists
Bonker already routes protocol fees from every token launched on the factory back to the project. $BONKER is how that value becomes something the community actually holds and steers, instead of sitting behind an admin key:
- Community ownership first — the genesis airdrop exists specifically to get $BONKER into the hands of people who showed up for the platform, not into a handful of insider wallets
- A path to DAO governance — the long-term vision is $BONKER holders voting on protocol parameters (fee splits, enabled hooks/lockers/extensions, treasury use) currently controlled by the factory owner. This is directional, not yet shipped — treat governance as a roadmap item, not a live feature
- Skin in the game — because $BONKER launches on Bonker itself, its liquidity is locked and its fee flow is visible on-chain the same way every other token's is, so the team is subject to the same rug-proof mechanics it sells to everyone else
Contract
$BONKER has not deployed yet. Once it launches, its contract address, chart, and trading links will be published here and on /genesis.
