The price of the native coin from BNB Chain (formerly BSC) grew by 50 percent in late 2021 but was much lower in 2022. On November 16, 2025, for example, a single BNB coin was worth more than 931.97 U.S. dollars - a value that is very different from the all-time high of 931.97 U.S. dollars in November 2021. Regardless, Binance Coin ranked in the top 10 most expensive cryptocurrencies in 2022. Noticeable is that the price increase of BNB in November 2021 coincides with a similar price change for Ethereum (ETH), a cryptocurrency where BNB initially originated in 2017 before coming to its own years later.BNB's history: From a reward token in 2017 to an ecosystem after 2019As the name suggests, Binance Coin, or BNB, originally started as an extension of the Binance.com trading platform, the most used cryptocurrency exchange in the world. It initially functioned on the Ethereum blockchain network as an ERC-20 token, offering incentives to owners like reduced trading fees, affiliate rewards, or a lottery ticket system ('Launchpad') that let users invest in new, Binance-selected crypto projects. In 2019, however, BNB moved away from the Ethereum network and migrated to Binance's self-developed blockchain: Binance Smart Chain, or BSC (called BNB Chain since February 2022). Here, BNB started to support a chain that initially did not focus on hosting decentralized apps but focused on high transaction speed and being able to handle large amounts of traffic.DeFi and GameFi: the main segments for BNBBSC, however, made significant strides in 2021, partly due to traffic overload and high gas prices on Ethereum, as well as the growing interest in both Decentralized Finance (DeFI) and NFTs. Much like Cardano, Solana, and Terra, Binance Smart Chain consequently became a valid alternative to Ethereum. The total value locked (TVL) of BNBs blockchain within DeFi, for example, ranked only behind that of Terra and Ethereum in early 2022. Another area where Binance's blockchain and token play a significant role is that of GameFi, or 'play-to-earn' blockchain games that are powered by cryptocurrencies. Some of the more well-known and most popular NFT games, like Alien Worlds and Axie Infinity, run on the blockchain behind BNB.

In 2021 Binance's cryptocurrency reached a market cap of more than ** billion U.S. dollars twice, after being worth less than * billion in 2020. Indeed, the digital coin's market cap rally in 2021 places it in the top three of cryptocurrencies with the highest market cap. The latest increase follows after the BNB price increased due to speculation that the demand for the coin would increase as Binance created a *********** U.S. dollar fund for new DeFi (decentralized finance) applications to be built within their own blockchain - called Binance Smart Chain or BSC.

By Type Insights

The bitcoin segment is estimated to witness significant growth during the forecast period.

Bitcoin, the world's largest cryptocurrency with a market capitalization of over USD470 billion, is a decentralized digital currency that operates on a peer-to-peer (P2P) network, bypassing the need for central authorities. Bitcoin's popularity is driven by its use of blockchain technology, which ensures secure, transparent, and immutable transactions through digital signatures and cryptographic hashing. The Bitcoin network faces scalability challenges, requiring ongoing improvements to transaction throughput and mining difficulty to maintain network security. KYC procedures and AML regulations are crucial for regulatory compliance, with exchange protocols implementing strict identity verification processes. Bitcoin's value is influenced by cryptocurrency volatility, with mining pools and consensus mechanisms like Proof of Work and Proof of Stake contributing to the creation and distribution of new coins.

Wallet security is paramount, with hardware wallets and cold storage providing enhanced security compared to software wallets. Decentralized exchanges and smart contracts, enabled by the Ethereum blockchain and public key cryptography, offer privacy protocols and zero-knowledge proofs to ensure secure transactions. The market is continually evolving, with ongoing activities and patterns shaping the landscape. Approximately 8% of Americans engage in cryptocurrency trading, with stablecoins like Tether, USD Coin, Binance USD, and DAI playing a significant role in the market. Despite its volatility, Bitcoin's impact on finance and technology is undeniable.
