User discovers $BONK linked to Solana Saga, sales shoot up 10x!

A Twitter user (@0xfrisk) discovered that the Solana Saga phone that they'd purchased for $599 was loaded with 30M $BONK tokens, which roughly translates to 550 USD at the time of writing this article, basically making up for the purchase price of the phone.

Getting into the nuances of it, you can currently purchase the Solana Saga phone for $599 from their official website, discounted 40% from the original price of $999. You can alternatively choose to get a Saga Pass NFT and burn it to claim a $100 discount on the phone. (need to check whether it has been used or not).

The deadline for the claim window has still not been defined, but you can currently claim your 30M $BONK from the BONK dApp store on the Saga. The closing of the claim window seems inevitable, so it is only a matter of when.

Regardless, as a consequence of this discovery, Saga's sales have shot up 10x in the past 24 hours (& you can see this in the quote tweets xD). People are now speculating on what are some more opportunities since the dApp store on the Saga is not only limited to the BONK app but also various other dApps like Claynosauraz, etc.

Raj (Cofounder, Solana) also claims the phone is on track to sell out before the end of this year! Keen to watch how this plays out for SOL ecosystem.
