I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about what separates a meme that has a good week from one that eventually becomes a billion-dollar asset
It usually isn’t a perfect launch or a chart that only goes up
- $DOGE spent years being dismissed and entered 2021 below half a cent to $90B
- $SHIB launched in August 2020, took roughly nine months to reach its first major high, then spent about five more months below that high before breaking out again in October and running to $47B
- $PEPE launched in April 2023, reached roughly a $1.6B market cap within weeks, then fell nearly 80% from its first peak and spent months trading below it before breaking out through 2024 and eventually reaching more than $11B in December
- $BONK may be the cleanest Solana-native example. After its first run in January 2023, it retraced roughly 96% and spent most of the year bleeding and consolidating. From its October low, it ran more than 100x into December 2023, continued building throughout 2024 and eventually reached roughly a $5B valuation in November 2024
- $PENGU launched in December 2024, bled into April and then ran roughly 12x into July
- $WIF and $POPCAT reinforced the same pattern on Solana. WIF turned a picture of a dog in a hat into a nearly $5B asset, while POPCAT turned a simple cat reaction meme into roughly $2B
$BONK is especially relevant because it proved this exact dynamic on Solana. Its community kept building while the chart looked dead, eventually becoming one of the largest and most active on-chain meme communities in crypto, with more than 1.1M holders and hundreds of ecosystem integrations
There’s another pattern connecting every coin on this list:
They’re ALL animals!
Memes that reach billion-dollar scale have to be understood in one second by people who don’t live on Crypto Twitter. Dogs, cats, frogs and penguins do that better than almost anything
Animal characters cross languages, cultures and age groups. They’re approachable, family-friendly, easy to meme, easy to merchandise and naturally brandable
Someone doesn’t need to understand the chain, the ticker or some complicated lore before connecting with the character. The character can become a profile picture, GIF, sticker, toy, mascot or brand collaboration without losing what made the meme recognizable in the first place
That gives animal memes a much better chance of escaping the crypto trading bubble and becoming part of mainstream internet culture
There’s a reason so many of crypto’s largest and most durable meme communities have been built around animals
The point isn’t that solana:HtTYHz1Kf3rrQo6AqDLmss7gq5WrkWAaXn3tupUZbonk has to copy any of those charts. It’s that the largest meme runs often come after long, quiet periods when the character and community keep growing while price does very little
That’s why I keep coming back to Kori
Kori wasn’t created as a crypto mascot and then marketed into relevance. Kori was already one of the most recognizable dogs on the internet before the token existed
That order matters
When solana:HtTYHz1Kf3rrQo6AqDLmss7gq5WrkWAaXn3tupUZbonk launched in May 2025, Kori had roughly 1.7M TikTok followers and 300K Instagram followers. Since then, those accounts have grown to:
- 2.9M TikTok followers
- 228M TikTok likes
- 568K Instagram followers
- 875M GIPHY views from only 79 uploads
- Kori’s largest TikTok has 1.03B views
Two others have roughly 98M and 94M, and newer videos are still regularly reaching seven figures
This isn’t a thesis built around one old viral video. Kori has demonstrated repeat distribution across TikTok, Instagram and GIPHY while the token has spent most of its life trading quietly
The commercial reach is just as important
Kori’s Block Blast partnership generated 1B views in about a month, making the video one of the MOST-watched TikToks of 2025. Kori has also collaborated with Adidas and Trip.com, been followed and reposted by Instagram’s official account, and was added to Ariana Grande’s TikTok fan spotlight
Beyond those collaborations and features, verified accounts including YouTube, Google, Spotify, Porsche, BMW, Samsung, Bose, Duracell, Fenty Beauty, Victoria's Secret, 7-Eleven, Slurpee, Lipton Ice Tea, Impossible Foods, Hallmark and Welch’s have all interacted with Kori’s content, just to name a few
Gaming, music, technology, fashion, travel, beauty, automotive, food, beverage and some of the largest social platforms in the world have all engaged with the same character
That kind of cultural reach is extremely difficult to manufacture, and most memecoins never achieve it
The bridge between the brand and the token is already in place
The same solana:HtTYHz1Kf3rrQo6AqDLmss7gq5WrkWAaXn3tupUZbonk contract address is publicly displayed across Kori’s official TikTok, Instagram, GIPHY and Linktree. The official Linktree connects Kori’s existing audience directly to the token
Despite all of that, solana:HtTYHz1Kf3rrQo6AqDLmss7gq5WrkWAaXn3tupUZbonk is still sitting around a $1.6M market cap with roughly 11K holders and just over $300K in liquidity
Effectively the entire supply is already circulating, meaning market cap and FDV are the same with no meaningful dilution overhang. Long-term aligned whales have continued accumulating through the drawdown and absorbing loose supply from short-term sellers
That matters because the float is becoming increasingly sticky while the valuation remains compressed. If even a small fraction of Kori’s Web2 reach begins converting on-chain, new demand will be competing for supply that is increasingly held by conviction buyers
That disconnect IS the thesis
Kori’s millions of followers do not need to convert all at once. At this valuation, even a small amount of crossover between the existing audience and the token could materially change how solana:HtTYHz1Kf3rrQo6AqDLmss7gq5WrkWAaXn3tupUZbonk is priced
The asymmetry comes from betting on conversion from an existing global audience rather than betting on another token trying to manufacture an audience, identity and culture from scratch
- Kori does not need to prove the character can go viral
- Kori does not need to prove major brands will engage
- Kori does not need to prove there is an audience outside crypto
ALL of that has already happened!
The bet is that the market eventually recognizes the connection between that existing brand and the one asset officially attached to it
While the token has been quiet, the underlying brand has continued compounding. $DOGE, $SHIB, $PEPE, $BONK, $PENGU, $WIF, and $POPCAT are reminders that accumulation rarely feels obvious while it is happening
When I look at what could become the next billion-dollar meme, I look for more than a temporary narrative or a strong chart
I look for a character people already recognize, an audience that extends far beyond crypto, repeat virality across multiple platforms, commercial relevance, an active community and a clear connection between the brand and the token
Kori already has ALL of it
At roughly a $1.6M market cap, I believe solana:HtTYHz1Kf3rrQo6AqDLmss7gq5WrkWAaXn3tupUZbonk is one of the clearest examples of a globally recognized internet brand being dramatically undervalued on-chain
- 35x back to ATH
- 300x to $500M
- 600x to $1B
That’s why I’m bullish on the fluffy little Pomeranian!

Coins I'm holding on my @fomo wallet.
1) solana:HtTYHz1Kf3rrQo6AqDLmss7gq5WrkWAaXn3tupUZbonk
- One of my longest conviction play i'm holding.
Coin thesis :
A) VIews:
People are always looking for virality for tiktok token.
They keep pushing and using as catalyst "this -> And yet, $Kori is doing 1M+ views weekly, and often reach 10M+ views / video.
B) Mindshare:
Having mindshare is the most important for a tiktok coin.
I'd be bearish IF kori had only few old videos that worked months ago and nothing more.
-> But for Kori, it's different.
Weekly new 1M+ views video.
Kori gifs reached 1B views.
Kori continues to be seen by so many people on IG / Tiktok and even twitter.
C) Catalyst:
A coin often pump for 2 reasons.
Catalyst & big wallet motion.
Controlling the big wallet motion is not possible, it takes time and will be done organicaly with the twitter activity etc.
But checking if new catalyst are possible is def something every trader should do from time to time.
-> Good news for KORI, So many brands keep using / tagging / Commenting KORI videos.
D) Top holder behavior:
For an old coin, it's even more important to check how the holders are reacting to every situations.
- Are they acting as stuck community members?
- Are they bullish ?
- Are they accumulating ?
- Do they have non sens and bullish expectation ?
And that's where, joining whale chat is interesting (even if i hate most whale chat).
-> Kori whale chat is a different level.
1year hold = all acting as a family.
+ So many kori whales are printing a lot, and using these profits to accumulate more kori.
------------------------------
Chart thesis:
We're talking about an OG coin, maybe the only @bonkfun OG coin still alive and ready to pump back with useless.
With OG coins = you can't really use fibos as resistance / support. What you should look for is key lvl.
Talking about key level, 4.6M is the most important lvl to break.
And once we breka it -> We have a clear road to 9.6M => Into we're back in the game
===========================
My conviction :
I'm bullish on $kori, and i want it to be MY main conviction play.
Right now, i'm holding 1.5% kori on my fomo wallet, and 1.45% more on different unknown wallets.
I plan to continue stacking more and more supply with extra liq i have.
The dog will go way higher one day.
Not if but only Wen

solana:HtTYHz1Kf3rrQo6AqDLmss7gq5WrkWAaXn3tupUZbonk just hit 1 BILLION views on GIPHY
Still sitting around a $3.7M market cap
- 3M TikTok followers
- Nearly 600K Instagram followers
- 1.03B views on a single TikTok
- +11K holders and ~$550K in liquidity
A whale bought roughly $30K last night👀
What keeps me bullish is that people are discovering Kori without ever opening a crypto app. Watching her videos, sharing her GIFs, following the dog
Kori’s official Linktree connects that audience directly to solana:HtTYHz1Kf3rrQo6AqDLmss7gq5WrkWAaXn3tupUZbonk, while the community keeps making content and getting the ticker in front of new people

When you have a relationship built up with trust and loyalty for a very long time with the solana:HtTYHz1Kf3rrQo6AqDLmss7gq5WrkWAaXn3tupUZbonk dog owner and we know we are all going to win together.
Stuff like this is very rare in crypto.
And everyone would be crazy to miss out al that actually has no ceiling, the content, the collabs, the engagement is not going to end.
Be wise to where you put your funds in the coming bullrun. @SolportTom @theunipcs
