Odaily reports: Bonk Guy posted on X platform stating that over the past few weeks, multiple developers associated with the Arc ecosystem have proactively reached out to him, hoping to attract Meme coin traders during the network's early launch phase. He believes that the Arc team has recognized that Meme coin trading is one of the ways for a new chain to rapidly boost on-chain activity, and may be borrowing Robinhood Chain's previous ecosystem cold-start playbook.BonkGuy stated that he had not previously paid much attention to Arc, but has recently begun making short-term positioning moves, having already purchased LONG, the native token of Arc's main Launchpad, as well as the top three Meme coins by market cap on that platform. However, he emphasized that his positioning in Arc is merely a short-term high-risk attempt and has not changed his long-term view that on-chain trading activity on Robinhood Chain, BNB Chain, and Solana is more promising.Previous reports indicate that the Arc mainnet will launch on September 16.
Odaily News: Crypto trader Bonk Guy posted on X platform responding to recent controversy surrounding his purchase of EMBER and explaining his position-building logic. Bonk Guy stated that he first noticed the project when EMBER's market cap was around $3 million but did not buy in. After observing for a day, he revisited his research due to the platform's rapid data growth and bought in from around a $7 million market cap all the way up to a $20 million market cap.Bonk Guy said that EMBER is a major Launchpad built on Meteora, supporting SOL, USDC, and over 150 tokenized stocks as pairing assets for token issuance. It utilizes Meteora Dynamic Bonding Curve technology and offers features such as token fee distribution, Daily Jackpots, and DAO governance.According to his disclosure, Ember has recorded approximately $51.7 million in trading volume, $561,000 in fees, and has cumulatively issued 2,041 tokens within 3 days of launch, with over 41,800 unique holder addresses and 149,000 Solana transactions. BonkGuy compared his Ember purchase to his previous PONS trade, noting that he first saw PONS when its market cap was below $1 million, similarly ignored it for a full day, and then started buying at around a $4 million market cap. Rather than whether a trending token has already emerged, what matters more is observing the real usage data underlying the Launchpad.Additionally, Bonk Guy stated that both Robinhood Chain and BNB Chain have multiple successful Launchpads, while Solana's Meme trading ecosystem has been developing for a longer time, so there is no reason to believe that Solana can ultimately only accommodate one successful Launchpad. He also stated that his trades are not based on market consensus. Some of his most successful trades in the past often came from discovering opportunities before the market formed a consensus; by the time everyone agrees, the asymmetric upside potential has usually already been significantly reduced.Regarding the recent controversy, Bonk Guy said that the claim of "EMBER having over 50% Bubblemaps address clusters" has been clarified by Bubblemaps; his earlier statement that Ember was "launched by Meteora" was also inaccurate—a more precise description is that Ember is built on Meteora-related infrastructure and has now been listed on Meteora's ecosystem page. Bonk Guy emphasized that he has no relationship with the Ember team, and EMBER is a personal trade for him.

According to Odaily, on-chain analyst Yujian monitored that one second after Binance published the Niu Lai listing announcement, a news trader paid 42.4 BNB as a bribe to node BNB48 Club and purchased 1.422 million Niu Lai tokens through a private RPC channel using 200 BNB, at a buy price of $0.10. To improve transaction priority and success rate, they also paid 6.87 BNB in gas fees. Within the following 15 minutes, the trader sold all Niu Lai tokens at $0.12 each, receiving 172,000 USDT in return. The price spread between purchase and sale generated a profit of $22,000, but the combined bribe fee and gas fees totaled $36,000, resulting in a final loss of $14,000.
Odaily News, Bonk Guy stated on the X platform that he had previously been pessimistic about Solana, even writing an analysis favoring Robinhood and BNB Chain, arguing that Solana would lose significant market share and attention in this cycle. However, his view has recently begun to shift toward a bullish stance on Solana and its ecosystem.Bonk Guy believes that Solana has recently re-embraced the "trench" culture and has started to more actively promote community projects. At the same time, Solana's management proactively reached out to him to understand how to better align with the community and the "trench" ecosystem. Additionally, Solana officials and core members have recently begun to proactively recognize ecosystem projects such as $STONK and $USELESS.These changes are not simply positive for a specific token, but rather reflect a top-down cultural shift within Solana, as well as management's proactive efforts to address issues in the ecosystem. He emphasized that his past criticism of Solana was never about the technology or infrastructure, but rather about the ecosystem culture and the impact of "extractors" on Solana's new projects and users.Bonk Guy also revealed that his originally planned long-form analysis, which was bearish on Solana and bullish on Robinhood and BNB Chain, will first be shared with the Solana team for reference. Due to the recent changes that have made him more optimistic, he may adjust his views and ultimately publish a more balanced analysis.Bonk Guy concluded: "My Solana bias is changing."

According to Chaoshan Research, Bernstein’s September 8, 2026 research report indicates that Robinhood Chain has rapidly become a revenue engine since its launch on July 1, generating approximately $33 million in fees over the past 15 days. This ranks it first among all blockchains, significantly ahead of Solana (approximately $11 million) and BNB Chain (approximately $9 million). Daily transaction fees on the chain range from $2 million to $4 million, with Robinhood retaining approximately 90% of the revenue. Bernstein maintains an "Outperform" rating with a price target of $160, implying approximately 31% upside potential from the current stock price. On the on-chain data front, Total Value Locked stands at approximately $1.5 billion, while cumulative DEX trading volume exceeds $50 billion. The value of tokenized stocks has risen from approximately $10 million to $140 million; stablecoin supply has reached approximately $1 billion, marking a sharp increase from $241 million in early July. Bernstein projects that annual on-chain fee revenue could reach $160 million by 2028.
