token and its underlying BNB Chain ecosystem emerging as a key piece of connective infrastructure. In 2025, BNB is undergoing a critical transformation, evolving from an exchange token into a multidimensional value asset that connects institutional finance with real-world mainstream adoption.
A clear sign of this shift is the recent influx of institutional interest. In July, investment firm 10X Capital announced its support from YZi Labs — a venture and incubation firm — to develop the “BNB Treasury Company.
For decades, the financial world has operated in two separate spheres. On one side stood Wall Street, with its regulated markets, institutional capital and legacy infrastructure. On the other was the digital-native economy of crypto, defined by peer-to-peer transactions and decentralized finance (DeFi). The two spoke different languages, and a true bridge between them seemed distant.
This independent entity aims to pursue a public listing. It will focus on acquiring and holding BNB, creating a regulated gateway for American institutional and retail investors to gain exposure to the asset.
This move is part of a broader trend of corporate adoption. Several United States-listed companies, including Nano Labs, Windtree and Liminatus Pharma, have initiated BNB treasury strategies, viewing the token as a core reserve asset with reserve targets of up to $1 billion.
