BNB Jumps 4.5% as Corporate Buyers, Developer Activity Fuel Rally

BNB is riding a wave of bullish momentum along with the wider crypto market, gaining 4.5% over the last 24-hour period to now stand near $780. Trading volumes for the cryptocurrency have been above-average suggesting deep-pocketed buyers were involved, according to CoinDesk Research’s technical analysis model. The move coincides with news that BNB Chain is unveiling its 2025–2026 roadmap , which includes scaling gas limits and adding privacy features. It also comes amid a wider crypto market rise that has seen the space’s total market capitalization near the $4 trillion mark. BNB Chain processed more than 440 million transactions last month, capturing a significant share of total network activity according to DeFiLlama data. Ethereum, in comparison, saw 41.2 million transactions over the same period. The surge in usage is backed by a flurry of developer activity. BNB Hack, the network’s ongoing grant competition, recognized five new projects on July 21 , including an AI-powered DeFi assistant and a social engagement layer for the web. Corporate adoption of BNB itself has also been growing. Windtree Therapeutics, a Nasdaq-listed biotech company based in Pennsylvania, last week announced plans to raise as much as $200 million to build a BNB treasury. Windtree joins companies including 10X Capital and Nano Labs in investing in the cryptocurrency for their corporate treasuries.
