BNB is the native coin of the BNB Chain ecosystem, which powers its multidimensional Web3 environment. It can handle transactions on the BNB Smart Chain (BSC), opBNB L2s and BNB Greenfield blockchains. Aside from transaction fees, BNB functions as a governance token, allowing holders to participate in the BNB Chain's decentralized on-chain governance.
Following its mainnet launch on April 18, 2019, BNB moved from the Ethereum Network to the BNB Chain. BNB uses an auto burn system that operates independently of Binance centralized exchange to gradually lower its total supply to 100,000,000 BNB.
BNB price reaction
At the time of writing, BNB was down 2.44% to $0.346 in the last 24 hours due to a market sell-off that resulted in the liquidation of $252 million in crypto assets within the same time frame.
BNB dipped below the daily SMA 50 at $701 following a loss over the weekend. The price recovered for three days in a row this week before falling in today's session, while BNB remains below its daily SMA 50.
If the BNB price increases and closes above the daily SMA 50, bulls may seek to push it up to $745. If they succeed, BNB may rise to $794 and then $872. Meanwhile, further falls may prompt BNB to test the support around $664 or $657.
