Crypto buzz alert
Binance Coin (BNB)
- **Price Movement**: As of May 2, 2025, BNB experienced a slight decline, dropping to $598.4, a 0.98% loss in 24 hours. Despite this, analysts remain bullish, predicting BNB could reach $1,000-$1,292 by late 2025, driven by Binance's ecosystem expansion and token burns.
- **Binance Ecosystem**: Binance continues to innovate, with a 40% surge in BNB chain activity amid talks of potential merges or upgrades, outpacing some competitors. The platform's Launchpad recently supported Solaxy, a Solana Layer 2 solution, raising $33M in presale.
Solana (SOL)
**Market Performance**: Solana’s price dipped 1.52% to Rs 12,463 (~$149 USD) on April 30, 2025, but rebounded with a 36% gain from recent lows. Analysts predict a range of $122-$490 in 2025, with $180 as a potential target.
**Ecosystem Growth**: Solana surpassed Ethereum in staking market cap, becoming the largest blockchain by staked value. Its DEX activity hit $15.8B in a week, outpacing Ethereum’s Layer-2 solutions by 50%. USDC circulation on Solana exceeded $10B, signaling DeFi adoption.
**ETF Prospects**: Analysts are confident in a Solana spot ETF approval in the US for 2025, though institutional interest may be limited. Bitwise and others have filed for SOL ETFs, reflecting growing investor demand.
Ethereum (ETH)
**Price Trends**: Ethereum traded at ~$1,630 as of April 2025, down 67% from its 2021 peak. Forecasts for 2025 range from $2,061-$6,000, with an average of $4,054, potentially hitting $8,705 by 2027.
**Market Dynamics**: Significant ETH inflows to Binance (92,000 ETH) signal potential selling pressure, compounded by Galaxy Digital’s swap of $105.48M ETH for $98.37M SOL. However, low gas fees ($0.01) enhance Ethereum’s competitiveness.
