Binance Coin (BNB) has possibly entered its parabolic phase. The large-cap altcoin, with a fully diluted valuation of about $178.8 billion, surged over 10% on Tuesday to reach a new all-time high (ATH) of above $1,330 before retracing to trade around $1,280 at press time.
Binance Coin Becomes 3rd Largest By Market Cap
Following today’s Binance Coin pump, BNB overtook XRP and Tether (USDT) to become the third-largest digital asset by market capitalization. At press time, USDT had a market cap of about $177.4 billion while XRP had a market cap of around $172 billion.
According to market data from Binance-backed CoinMarketCap, BNB’s daily traded volume surged over 87% to hover around $10 billion at the time of this reporting.
Top Reasons Why BNB Price Surged Today
High Liquidity Inflows from Other Chains
Today’s BNB price pump was heavily influenced by notable liquidity inflow from other chains to the BNB ecosystem. During the last 30 days, more than $512 million was bridged from other chains, led by Ethereum, to the BNB chain.
Notable Ecosystem Growth
According to market data from DeFiLlama, the BSC ecosystem has seen its total value locked (TVL) surge from around $5.6 billion in June 2025 to about $9.1 billion at press time.
The Binance ecosystem has recorded notable growth, especially with the launch of Aster DEX backed by BNB co-founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ). As such, the BNB chain achieved over 58 million monthly active addresses.
Supportive Economic Backdrop
The notable rise of BNB to its ATH is partially backed by the notable adoption by institutional investors as a hedge against inflation. For instance, several publicly traded companies have already implemented BNB treasury plans. Last month, Kazakhstan’s Alem Crypto Fund announced its plans to buy BNB for its long-term investment plan.
What’s Next for BNB Price?
After entering its price discovery, BNB is well-positioned to experience a parabolic rally soon. Furthermore, macro technical analysis has revealed that the BNB price has been recording a similar fractal pattern to the 2021 bull rally.
Market analyst Crypto Patel has predicted that the BNB price will reach a target range of between $2k and $3k in the near term fueled by its bullish momentum.
