Solana’s Saga Mobile Phones Sold Out Amid BONK Rally

The recent surge in Bonk token value has led to a swift sellout of Solana’s Saga mobile phones in North America, with only a limited number remaining in Europe. Each Saga mobile phone includes 30 million Bonk tokens, valued at around $900 with current BONK price, which basically covers the cost of the phone itself.

Interestingly, Solana Labs co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko recently expressed regret on a podcast regarding the initially underestimated success of the Saga mobile phone sales.
