The House Never Wins
BONK

Hello

Overview

As Solvent Labs prepares to launch The House Never Wins (THNW) on mainnet, establishing strong early momentum is essential. Prior to the introduction of Solvent Labs’ own native token, THNW will adopt BONK as its primary asset token. This strategy allows Solvent Labs to tap into one of Solana’s most active and engaged communities, accelerate user acquisition, and generate meaningful on-chain traction while the team finalizes its own governance model.

Using BONK during the pre-TGE phase ensures a smooth, scalable, and community-aligned mainnet debut.

1. Immediate Access to Solana’s Largest Retail User Base

BONK is one of Solana’s most widely held and frequently transacted assets. Launching THNW with BONK as the wagering currency allows Solvent Labs to:

  • Reach hundreds of thousands of existing Solana users
  • Benefit from BONK’s unmatched retail activity
  • Achieve fast onboarding without needing $PROTON ready at launch

This accelerates early traction significantly in the period before the $PROTON token goes live.

2. Perfect Cultural Alignment With THNW’s Gameplay Loop

The BONK community is known for:

  • High-energy meme culture
  • Fast-paced experimentation
  • Constant engagement and community-driven momentum
  • Strong appetite for games, challenges, and micro-interactions

THNW’s fair, transparent, high-stakes PvP micro-games slot directly into this cultural environment, making BONK holders a natural early audience.

3. Strong Liquidity + Divisibility = Ideal for High-Frequency Wagering

BONK’s characteristics make it a perfect pre-TGE wagering token:

  • Deep liquidity across Solana
  • Broad CEX presence
  • Extremely low transaction costs
  • High supply is perfect for micro-wagers
  • Fast, frictionless transfers

This ensures THNW launches with no economic or liquidity bottlenecks during its early adoption phase.

4. Removes Friction Before $PROTON’s TGE

Adopting BONK before the $PROTON TGE creates significant benefits:

  • Avoids premature speculation, volatility, or sell pressure on $PROTON
  • Keeps gameplay-focused adoption separate from governance token economics
  • Allows the Solvent Labs community to grow organically before introducing token mechanics
  • Gives $PROTON a clean, intentional TGE moment later on

This preserves $PROTON as a governance and ecosystem utility token, not a gambling currency.

5. Strengthens Cross-Ecosystem Alignment on Solana

Launching mainnet with BONK signals:

Solvent Labs is a collaborative builder aligned with Solana’s cultural and community core.

This opens pathways for:

  • Joint BONK x THNW campaigns
  • Cross-community quests and tournaments
  • Co-branded marketing pushes
  • BONK-holder exclusive access or early privileges
  • Lore-driven collaborations between BONK and Proton

Such alignment amplifies visibility far beyond what a new token alone could provide pre-TGE.

Friendly Relationship With the BONK Team

Solvent Labs maintains a positive and friendly relationship with members of the BONK team. This relationship builds on:

  • Shared values around community-first development
  • A mutual desire to strengthen Solana’s cultural layer
  • A commitment to fairness, transparency, and open experimentation

The goodwill and alignment make BONK a natural choice for THNW’s pre-TGE mainnet rollout.

Cultural & Ecosystem Role

BONK stands as one of Solana’s strongest cultural anchors due to:

  • Grassroots origin and fair launch
  • Massive community support
  • High on-chain velocity
  • Deep liquidity and broad utility
  • Meme power that drives virality

This makes BONK not just a meme token but a de facto high-throughput transaction currency that is well known and ideal for a PvP wagering ecosystem like THNW.

Conclusion

Adopting BONK as the wagering token at mainnet, before the $PROTON TGE, is a strategic and ecosystem aligned decision. It accelerates user growth, leverages BONK’s enormous retail reach, and positions THNW for immediate traction. At the same time, it preserves the purpose and integrity of the future $PROTON token, ensuring its TGE focuses on governance, contribution, and long term ecosystem expansion.

This sequence establishes the strongest possible foundation for both THNW and $PROTON moving forward.
