$BNB

BNB, originally launched as Binance Coin in 2017, has evolved far beyond an exchange utility token. It powers gas fees on BNB Smart Chain, fuels staking, governance, and bridges across multiple ecosystems. After the 2024 Beacon-Smart Chain fusion, BNB’s deflationary tokenomics intensified through quarterly burns and real-time auto-burns, steadily reducing supply. Developers favor the chain for low fees, EVM compatibility, and expanding zk-rollup support, driving DeFi TVL and GameFi projects. Institutional interest rose following MiCA-aligned compliance upgrades and Binance’s licensing wins in key regions. BNB also underpins Binance Pay and Launchpool, cementing its role as a multifunctional asset within and beyond Binance’s growing Web3 infrastructure across exchanges and partner platforms.
