BNB's market value surpasses Nike, ranking among the top 185 global assets.
A big event happened yesterday.
With a market value of $119.1 billion, BNB has officially surpassed SoftBank and Nike, becoming the 185th largest asset in the world.
Let's rewind time to 7 years ago. In 2017, when BNB first launched at a price of $1, no one would have thought it could stand shoulder to shoulder with these century-old giants. Today, it has achieved that.
This is not just an ordinary price breakthrough; it is a watershed moment for cryptocurrency assets to be recognized by mainstream capital.
Let's see who is buying BNB:
The Kingdom of Bhutan has included BNB in its national strategic reserves, alongside BTC and ETH as core assets.
Nasdaq-listed companies like Nano Labs and Windtree Therapeutics have built positions in BNB.
Global sovereign funds are quietly positioning themselves.
While traditional investors are still debating 'whether cryptocurrencies have value,' smart money has already voted with action.
Why BNB?
Because it solves a core problem: how to create real value in a decentralized world.
For every BNB destroyed, the circulating supply permanently decreases (over 31% has been destroyed).
For every new ecological application, the use case expands exponentially.
With every transaction completed, the network effect continues to strengthen.
This is a positive flywheel: the more people use it, the higher the value; the higher the value, the more people use it.
More importantly, BNB is redefining the meaning of 'asset.'
Traditional assets are static: stocks are stocks, currencies are currencies, commodities are commodities.
But BNB is dynamic: it is both a platform equity and a payment tool; it can participate in governance and generate profits; it can be staked for mining and used for discounted trading.
This multi-dimensional value capture ability is unimaginable for assets in the Web2 era.
By the way, here's a piece of news,
I heard that Binance is celebrating this breakthrough internally by offering an event for old users, allowing them to buy BNB at a discounted price, as low as 20%. However, this is only for old users registered before July 27, with limited daily availability. The first wave will be at 6 PM. I'm not sure where the specific entrance is, but I suggest checking their Chinese official Twitter.

for updates, or open the app to search for keywords.
But as much as I praise, I really have to complain about the Binance app. It's incredibly complex and almost anti-human. There are activities all day long, and none of the entrances are clear. It's really frustrating!
It can be optimized! The simplest path is the best!
