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.

Binance was created as a utility token for discounted trading fees in 2017, but its uses have expanded to numerous applications, including payments for transaction fees (on the Binance Chain), travel bookings, entertainment, online services, and financial services.

Ready to Use - Cleaned and arranged dataset less than 0.015% of missing data hour: crypto_data.csv

First Draft - Before External Sources Merge (to cover missing data points): crypto_force.csv

Original dataset merged from all individual token datasets: cryptotoken_full.csv

crypto_data.csv & cryptotoken_full.csv highly challenging wrangling situations: - fix 'Date' formats and inconsistencies - find missing hours and isolate them for each token - import external data source containing targeted missing hours and merge dataframes to fill missing rows

see notebook 'Advanced EDA & Data Wrangling - Crypto Market Data' to follow along and have a look at the EDA, wrangling and cleaning process.

Date Range: From 2017-08-17 04:00:00 to 2023-10-19 23:00:00

Date Format: YYYY-MM-DD HH-MM-SS (raw data to be converted to datetime)

Data Source: Binance API (some missing rows filled using Kraken & Poloniex market data)

Crypto Token in the dataset (also available as independent dataset): - 1INCH - AAVE - ADA (Cardano) - ALGO (Algorand) - ATOM (Cosmos) - AVAX (Avalanche) - BAL (Balancer) - BCH (Bitcoin Cash) - BNB (Binance Coin) - BTC (Bitcoin) - COMP (Compound) - CRV (Curve DAO Token) - DENT - DOGE (Dogecoin) - DOT (Polkadot) - DYDX - ETC (Ethereum Classic) - ETH (Ethereum) - FIL (Filecoin) - HBAR (Hedera Hashgraph) - ICP (Internet Computer) - LINK (Chainlink) - LTC (Litecoin) - MATIC (Polygon) - MKR (Maker) - RVN (Ravencoin) - SHIB (Shiba Inu) - SOL (Solana) - SUSHI (SushiSwap) - TRX (Tron) - UNI (Uniswap) - VET (VeChain) - XLM (Stellar) - XMR (Monero)

Date column presents some inconsistencies that need to be cleaned before formatting to datetime: - For column 'Symbol' and 'ETCUSDT' = '23-07-27': it is missing all hours (no data, no hourly rows for this day). I fixed it by using the only one row available for that day and duplicated the values for each hour. Can be fixed using this code:

start_timestamp = pd.Timestamp('2023-07-27 00:00:00')
end_timestamp = pd.Timestamp('2023-07-27 23:00:00')

hourly_timestamps = pd.date_range(start=start_timestamp, end=end_timestamp, freq='H')

hourly_data = {
  'Date': hourly_timestamps,
  'Symbol': 'ETCUSDT',
  'Open': 18.29,
  'High': 18.3,
  'Low': 18.17,
  'Close': 18.22,
  'Volume USDT': 127468,
  'tradecount': 623,
  'Token': 'ETC'
}

hourly_df = pd.DataFrame(hourly_data)
df = pd.concat([df, hourly_df], ignore_index=True)

df = df.drop(550341)

• Some rows for 'Date' have extra digits '.000' '.874' etc.. instead of the right format YYYY-MM-DD HH-MM-SS. To clean it you can use the following code:

# Count the occurrences of the pattern '.xxx' in the 'Date' column
count_occurrences_before = df['Date'].str.count(r'\.\d{3}')
print("Occurrences before cleaning:", count_occurrences_before.sum()) 

# Remove '.xxx' pattern from the 'Date' column
df['Date'] = df['Date'].str.replace(r'\.\d{3}', '', regex=True)

# Count the occurrences of the pattern '.xxx' in the 'Date' column after cleaning
count_occurrences_after = df['Date'].str.count(r'\.\d{3}')
print("Occurrences after cleaning:", count_occurrences_after.sum())

Cryptocurrency historical datasets from January 2012 (if available) to October 2021 were obtained and integrated from various sources and Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) including Yahoo Finance, Cryptodownload, CoinMarketCap, various Kaggle datasets, and multiple APIs. While these datasets used various formats of time (e.g., minutes, hours, days), in order to integrate the datasets days format was used for in this research study. The integrated cryptocurrency historical datasets for 80 cryptocurrencies including but not limited to Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Binance Coin (BNB), Cardano (ADA), Tether (USDT), Ripple (XRP), Solana (SOL), Polkadot (DOT), USD Coin (USDC), Dogecoin (DOGE), Tron (TRX), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Litecoin (LTC), EOS (EOS), Cosmos (ATOM), Stellar (XLM), Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC), Uniswap (UNI), Terra (LUNA), SHIBA INU (SHIB), and 60 more cryptocurrencies were uploaded in this online Mendeley data repository. Although the primary attribute of including the mentioned cryptocurrencies was the Market Capitalization, a subject matter expert i.e., a professional trader has also guided the initial selection of the cryptocurrencies by analyzing various indicators such as Relative Strength Index (RSI), Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD), MYC Signals, Bollinger Bands, Fibonacci Retracement, Stochastic Oscillator and Ichimoku Cloud. The primary features of this dataset that were used as the decision-making criteria of the CLUS-MCDA II approach are Timestamps, Open, High, Low, Closed, Volume (Currency), % Change (7 days and 24 hours), Market Cap and Weighted Price values.
