Bonk is a dog-themed memecoin on the Solana blockchain, launched on Christmas Day 2022 to revitalize the Solana community following the FTX collapse. Created by an anonymous team of 22 Solana developers and builders, Bonk distributed 50% of its total 100 trillion token supply via airdrop to community members including NFT collectors, developers, and artists.   The project positions itself as "the first Solana dog coin for the people, by the people," explicitly rejecting venture capital backing in favor of grassroots community ownership. What sets Bonk apart from other memecoins is its combination of fair launch mechanics, extensive ecosystem integration, and active deflationary strategy.   Built on Solana, BONK benefits from fast transaction speeds and low fees that make it practical for everyday use. Native products include LetsBonk.fun (a memecoin launchpad that briefly became Solana's market leader in 2025, surpassing Pump.fun with over 78% market share), BonkSwap (a decentralized exchange) and BonkBot (a Telegram trading bot with built-in burn mechanics).   BONK is available across 10 blockchain networks and listed on major exchanges including Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, and Robinhood. Governance is handled by BonkDAO, which holds 15% of the token supply and makes decisions through on-chain voting.   The community has organized several major burn events, most notably the December 2024 BURNmas campaign that destroyed 1.69 trillion tokens worth over $50 million. In September 2025, Nasdaq-listed Safety Shot, Inc. formed BONK Holdings LLC and acquired over 2.5% of the circulating supply (valued at $55-63 million), making BONK one of the first memecoins to attract formal corporate treasury adoption. Core contributor Nom was appointed to Safety Shot's board, and the company holds a 10% revenue share in LetsBonk.fun.  As with all memecoins, BONK is a highly speculative asset with substantial volatility. Its value is primarily driven by community sentiment, social media momentum, and meme culture rather than traditional utility.   The anonymous team, while common in the memecoin space, means investors should exercise appropriate caution. Despite these risks, Bonk has established itself as one of the most successful community-driven tokens in the Solana ecosystem, approaching 1 million unique holders and expanding from a simple memecoin into meaningful DeFi infrastructure.

BONK

Traders are tying BONKs weakness to claims of a security breach and its delisting from South Koreas Upbit exchange, though the messages do not establish those claims independently. The reaction is split between dip-buying and bullish hopes for a rebound or Bonk.fun relaunch, and concern that the selloff may continue.

dogwifhat (WIF) is a Solana-based memecoin featuring a Shiba Inu dog wearing a pink knitted hat that has become a central figure in the 2024-2026 market. Originally launched anonymously in late 2023, the project operates on a decentralized, community-driven model with no formal venture capital backing or complex tokenomics. It represents a cultural phenomenon on the Solana blockchain that celebrates whimsy and simplicity over technical complexity, focusing on its identity as a playful mascot for the digital finance era. The project’s main value proposition is its "Pure Meme Identity," as it maintains a strict focus on its meme origins without forced utility or a pivot toward DeFi and gaming.  The project embodies the community-driven nature of the Solana ecosystem, prioritizing "vibes" and meme-sharing as its primary growth drivers. It follows a "hat stays on" philosophy, maintaining a singular focus on its core meme rather than building a complex ecosystem. While the project does not have a formal governance structure or DAO, decisions are largely driven by social consensus among the community and key influencers. Notable community initiatives include the "Sphere Wif Hat" campaign, which raised nearly $700,000 in USDC in March 2024 to put the mascot on the Las Vegas Sphere. However, after a year of negotiations and delays, organizers officially abandoned the advertisement on March 31, 2025, and initiated a full refund process for donors.  The initial team behind dogwifhat remains anonymous, which is a standard practice within the memecoin sector. The coin's narrative is heavily influenced by prominent crypto personalities, most notably Ansem, who was a key figure in the project's early viral growth and subsequent marketing initiatives. Regarding integrations, WIF has deep liquidity across major Solana decentralized exchanges like Jupiter and Raydium, is available on the Unichain network via official contract bridging, and is listed on major centralized exchanges including Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, and Bybit.  WIF is a purely speculative asset whose value is primarily driven by community sentiment and meme culture rather than traditional utility. It was launched without a presale or significant venture capital allocation, meaning the token's supply is fully circulating. The project has achieved a "blue chip" status in the memecoin space, often serving as a beta-play for the broader health of the Solana ecosystem. No native decentralized applications or trading bots have been officially launched by the core team, as the project maintains its focus on its identity as "literally a dog wif a hat".

dogwifhat

WIFs prolonged weakness and choppy, largely sideways trading dominate the discussion, with traders complaining that brief gains are repeatedly sold off and alleging price manipulation. Some see the low range as an accumulation opportunity and anticipate a rebound, but that optimism is outweighed by frustration over persistent selling and lack of momentum.

Paramount Gold Announces Positive Initial Assessment of the Sleeper Gold Project

After-Tax NPV of $402M and IRR of 45% ($3,600/oz gold)
After-Tax NPV of $867M and IRR of 66% ($4,700/oz gold)
  
WINNEMUCCA, Nev., June  17, 2026  (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Paramount Gold Nevada Corp. (NYSE American: PZG) (“Paramount” or the “Company”) announced today the results of an Initial Assessment prepared in accordance with S-K 1300 (the “Assessment” or “Study”) for its 100%-owned Sleeper Gold Project (“Sleeper” or the “Project”), a past-producing gold mine located in Humboldt County, Nevada. All figures are in U.S. Dollars.  
  
The Assessment evaluates the potential restart of the historic Sleeper Mine through the processing of existing waste rock dumps and mining of in situ oxide and mixed Mineral Resources utilizing conventional open-pit mining and a 30,000 tonne per day crush-agglomerate-heap-leach processing facility with Merrill-Crowe recovery.
  
The Project demonstrates strong economics, based on assumed metal prices of $3,600 per ounce gold and $48 per ounce silver, including an after-tax net present value (NPV) at an 8% discount rate of $402 million, an after-tax internal rate of return (IRR) of 44%, and a payback period of approximately 1.4 years.  
  
The Assessment includes sensitivity analysis to higher commodity prices amongst other inputs. Assuming metal prices of $4,700 per ounce gold and $80 per ounce silver, the Project's after-tax NPV (8%) increases to $867 million, with an IRR of 66% and a payback period of 1.2 years.
  
Over a 17-year mine life, the Assessment projects average annual gold production of approximately 65,000 ounces and total payable gold production of approximately 1.1 million ounces.
  
The use of existing mineralized surface material and existing infrastructure contributes to the Project’s strong economics by reducing upfront capital requirements and leads to the expected, short payback period. Approximately 47 million tonnes of mineralized waste dump material containing approximately 420,000 recoverable ounces of gold are included in the mine plan, representing a significant, lower-cost source of early production and cash flow prior to initiation of open pit mining. The economic analysis considers only oxide and mixed mineralized material amenable to heap leaching, and does not include sulfide mineralization, which will be evaluated in subsequent studies.
  
Rachel Goldman, Chief Executive Officer of Paramount, stated:
  
“The Sleeper Initial Assessment outlines an exciting restart opportunity, with strong projected returns, a short payback period and a 17-year mine life. In the first five years alone, the Project has a very low strip ratio of 0.74:1 and is expected to produce approximately 348,000 ounces of gold and 1.33 million ounces of silver, generating after-tax cash flow of approximately $514 million in the Base Case and $826 million in the Upside Case.
  
Building on these results, Sleeper offers further excellent optionality. The Project can advance toward a production restart, while additional surface materials not yet included in this Assessment will be evaluated for inclusion in future study updates. There exists meaningful potential to convert additional resource ounces and expand the surface sources of heap-leachable inventory. The longer we can extend that phase of operations, the stronger the overall project economics become.
  
Additionally, with no significant exploration conducted at Sleeper in over two decades, we see substantial upside through a focused exploration program across our large land position.
  
The Study reinforces our view that Sleeper is well positioned for redevelopment and has the potential to become an important producing asset for Paramount. We look forward to updating these results as we continue to advance the Project.”
  
The following table summarizes key metrics from the Assessment, including an upside case at higher metal prices.

​​​​​​NOTES:
† Production and capital cost metrics are unchanged across both price cases.
* Cash costs consist of mining costs, dewatering costs, processing costs, mine-level G&A, refining charges and royalties, net of by-product credits.
** AISC includes cash costs plus sustaining capital and closure costs, net of silver by-product credits, at the project level. Corporate G&A is not included. The reported AISC reflects the benefit of low-cost ounces already stacked on the existing heap leach pads, which require minimal additional spending to recover. As these legacy ounces are depleted and replaced with newly mined material, unit costs are expected to gradually normalize toward long-term levels.
  
The following table compares the Project’s economics over the first five years of operations to the full 17-year mine life. Over the life of the mine, the Project is expected to produce approximately 1.10 million ounces of gold and 3.38 million ounces of silver, generating cumulative after-tax cash flow of approximately $918 million in the Base Case and $1.93 billion in the Upside Case.

MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATE (METRIC)
  
The Mineral Resource estimate presented below reflects updated geological interpretations, revised economic parameters, and updated metallurgical recovery assumptions. The estimate includes in situ oxide, mixed and sulfide mineralization, as well as surface material contained in waste rock dumps, heap leach pads, and the tailings storage facility, which is classified as Inferred. The Project hosts 1.99 million ounces of gold in Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources and an additional 2.30 million ounces of gold in Inferred Mineral Resources, compared to 1.90 million ounces and 1.21 million ounces, respectively, in the 2023 Mineral Resource estimate. This represents an increase of approximately 5% in Measured and Indicated Resources and 90% in Inferred Resources, significantly expanding the Project's resource base and future growth potential.

NOTES:
  
The definitions for Mineral Resources in S-K 1300 were followed for Mineral Resources
The Mineral Resource estimate is reported on a 100% ownership basis.
The point of reference for the Mineral Resource is before the crusher (in situ).
Open Pit Mineral Resources are reported at a cut-off grade ranging from 0.074 g/t to 0.217 g/t Au, depending on area and constrained by a preliminary optimized pit shell with a pit slope angle of 45° for rock and 22° for alluvium and a bench height of 10 m.
The optimized pit shell and cut-off grades were generated by assuming metallurgical gold recovery ranging from 63.7% to 85.0% and silver recoveries ranging from 0.0% to 54.6%, standard treatment and refining charges, mining costs of $2.40/t moved for open pit, processing costs of $5.51/t oxide/mixed and $10.44 sulfide processed, and general and administrative costs of $0.46/t processed
Minimal mining width was 60 m for oxide/mixed material and 20m for sulfide material
Mineral Resources are estimated using a long-term gold price of $3,100 per ounce
Bulk density ranges from 1.5 t/m3 in the tailings storage area to 2.7 t/m3 for in situ material
Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
Numbers may not add due to rounding.
  
The Sleeper Mine produced approximately 1.66 million ounces of gold and 2.3 million ounces of silver between 1986 and 1996 and benefits from existing infrastructure, established site access, extensive historical operating data, and a large land position in one of the world's premier mining jurisdictions.
  
RECOMMENDED ADVANCEMENT PROGRAM
  
The Assessment recommends an $8.7 million advancement program designed to improve resource confidence classifications, enhance metallurgical and geotechnical confidence, complete environmental baseline studies, advance permitting activities, optimize heap-leach design through engineering studies, and support the completion of a pre-feasibility study.
  
In parallel, the Company plans to initiate permitting for infill drilling targeting surface material, which includes the historic heap leach pads and tailings storage facility at Sleeper. This work will support future resource updates and contribute to subsequent pre-feasibility or feasibility studies. Permitting is expected to be straightforward and timely, as the proposed activities fall within the scope of the existing Plan of Operations.
  
The updated S-K 1300 Technical Report Summary for the Sleeper Gold Project will be available on the Company’s website and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 8-K. The report will also be included in the Company’s next Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Historical Gold Projects Could Hold the Sector’s Best Risk-Reward Opportunities

For decades, some of the most overlooked opportunities in gold exploration were not hidden beneath untouched wilderness, but buried inside old datasets, fragmented drilling records, and mining districts abandoned before modern structural modeling, geophysics, and metallurgy transformed how deposits are understood. In a gold market where financing conditions favor projects with scale, infrastructure, and realistic development pathways, historical districts with proven mineralization have moved from afterthought to acquisition target.Provenance Gold Corp.

Paramount Gold Commences Initial Assessment of Sleeper Gold Project in Nevada

Advancing Evaluation of Potential Development Options
WINNEMUCCA, Nev., April  09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Paramount Gold Nevada Corp. (NYSE American: PZG) (“Paramount” or the “Company”) announced today that it has commenced an Initial Assessment (“IA”) under the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) S-K 1300, for its 100%-owned Sleeper Gold Project (“Sleeper”), a past-producing high-grade gold mine located in Humboldt County, northern Nevada.
  
The IA will be prepared in accordance with applicable U.S. regulatory standards and will evaluate the project’s economic potential.
  
The assessment is intended to examine a potentially lower-cost, staged development approach focused on heap-leachable material only, including approximately 54 million tons of material of economic interest. This includes surface material from previously unevaluated waste dumps, as well as oxide and mixed in-situ mineralization amenable to heap leaching. This approach has the potential to support an accelerated path to cash flow and enhance overall project economics, building on prior assessments that focused primarily on in-situ resources. It is also expected to contribute to development planning and the evaluation of potential future expansion opportunities.
  
Rachel Goldman, Chief Executive Officer of Paramount, stated:
  
“Following our internal review, we believe substantial historic data supports an initial assessment of a heap-leach-only operation at Sleeper, and we are now progressing the evaluation of development options. Sleeper is a large, past-producing asset in a well-established mining jurisdiction with existing infrastructure, and in the current gold price environment, we see a compelling opportunity to unlock value. Focusing on the oxidized and transitional material is a logical first step to define the project’s development potential and guide the next phase of work.
  
At the same time, we continue to advance our Grassy Mountain Project through final permitting and feasibility activities, positioning the Company with two meaningful projects moving forward.”
  
Paramount has engaged SLR International Corporation (“SLR”) to conduct the study. SLR is currently active on-site through its ongoing monitoring and reclamation programs and will leverage its recent acquisition of Forte Dynamics to incorporate enhanced leach kinetics expertise into the assessment. SLR is a qualified person within the meaning of Subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K.
  
In parallel, the Company plans to initiate permitting for infill drilling targeting surface material at Sleeper, which could support future resource updates and contribute to subsequent pre-feasibility or feasibility studies. Permitting is expected to be straightforward and timely, as the proposed activities fall within the scope of the existing Plan of Operations.
  
Completion of the Initial Assessment is expected in late Q2 2026, representing a key milestone in the Company’s evaluation of development options at Sleeper.

Paramount’s future expectations, beliefs, goals, plans or prospects constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other applicable securities laws. Words such as "believes," "plans," "anticipates," "expects," “may,” “continue,” “intend,” "estimates," “potential” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although these words may not be present in all forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements included in this news release include, without limitation, statements with respect to the timing and success of the permitting of the Grassy Mountain Gold Project and the Sleeper Gold Project, and the anticipated results of the Sleeper IA. Forward-looking statements are based on the reasonable assumptions, estimates, analyses and opinions of management made in light of its experience and its perception of trends, current conditions and expected developments, as well as other factors that management believes to be relevant and reasonable in the circumstances at the date that such statements are made, but which may prove to be incorrect. Management believes that the assumptions and expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable. Assumptions have been made regarding, among other things: the conclusions made in the feasibility study for the Grassy Mountain Gold Project (the “FS”); the quantity and grade of resources included in resource estimates; the accuracy and achievability of projections included in the FS; Paramount’s ability to carry on exploration and development activities, including construction; the timely receipt of required approvals and permits; the price of silver, gold and other metals; prices for key mining supplies, including labor costs and consumables, remaining consistent with current expectations; work meeting expectations and being consistent with estimates and plant, equipment and processes operating as anticipated. There are a number of important factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to: uncertainties involving interpretation of drilling results; environmental matters; the ability to obtain required permitting; equipment breakdown or disruptions; additional financing requirements; the completion of a definitive feasibility study for the Sleeper Gold Project; discrepancies between actual and estimated mineral reserves and mineral resources, between actual and estimated development and operating costs and between estimated and actual production; the global epidemics, pandemics, or other public health crises, including the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) global health pandemic, and the spread of other viruses or pathogens and the other factors described in Paramount’s disclosures as filed with the SEC and the Ontario, British Columbia and Alberta Securities Commissions.
  
Except as required by applicable law, Paramount disclaims any intention or obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of developments occurring after the date of this document.
