$BNB Standard Chartered forecasts a 360% increase in BNB price to $2,775 by 2028.
Geoffrey Kendrick leads this projection, citing BNB’s stable correlation with Bitcoin and Ethereum since May 2021 as a market indicator. BNB shows low developer activity among Layer 1 chains, but its value is sustained through a deflationary tokenomics model and exchange-linked utility, including trading discounts and airdrops via Binance. These features sustain user demand.
The BNB Chain will implement the Maxwell upgrade in June 2025, following the Pascal hard fork. Maxwell will reduce block times to 0.75 seconds, targeting improved scalability and decentralized finance performance. This is expected to increase developer participation and supports Standard Chartered’s bullish stance.
