Binance Coin (BNB) is the native cryptocurrency of the Binance exchange, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges globally. It was launched in 2017 as part of Binance's initial coin offering (ICO) to fund the development of the exchange. BNB serves various purposes within the Binance ecosystem, including discounted trading fees for users who pay with BNB, participation in token sales on the Binance Launchpad platform, and as a means of payment for goods and services through merchants that accept BNB. BNB has seen significant adoption due to its utility and the popularity of the Binance exchange. It has also expanded beyond the Binance ecosystem, with BNB being supported by various third-party wallets, exchanges, and decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms. Binance regularly uses a portion of its profits to buy back and burn BNB tokens, reducing the total supply over time, which can contribute to increasing its value. Additionally, Binance has been actively involved in developing the Binance Smart Chain (BSC), a parallel blockchain that enables smart contract functionality and decentralized applications (DApps), further expanding the use cases and utility of BNB within the broader crypto ecosystem.
A Senate report just painted Tether as a financial lifeline for a sanctioned nation, but the story behind that striking statistic raises bigger questions about what it actually means for the millions of everyday holders sitting on USDT right now.
