- Binance executed another auto-burn of 656 BNB tokens via the Pioneer Burn Program to help users prevent potential asset losses
- The recent surge in BNB’s price has marked a bullish market trend. The breakout from the long-term descending resistance line shows support via the green icon, indicating a growing upward movement
- Binance has demonstrated its continued commitment to innovative solutions with the Pioneer Burn Program
Binance has completed another auto-burn of approximately 656 BNB tokens, totaling $218,000, through their Pioneer Burn Program, which assists users in mitigating losses incurred from sending assets to the wrong address.
The auto-burn system scales the quantity of BNB based on the coin’s price and generated blocks on its chain. This auto-burn system was first introduced by Binance in 2017, starting at $1.52 per coin.
The latest burn resulted in an overall number of 155,166,772.80 BNB in circulation.
Several factors suggest a bullish market for BNB, especially with the recent price increase that caused the price of BNB to break out from a resistance line that showed lower highs and marked this zone as support through the green icon. This event led to the beginning of an upward movement and a lengthened lower wick.
According to data analysis, it can be inferred that BNB has experienced a considerable surge in price. The graph indicates that the coin is currently in wave three of an upward trend consisting of five waves. Black sub-wave counts further validate this finding. This could be a sign that the rate of increase for BNB is picking up speed.
The next goal is set to the $450 zone, corresponding to a horizontal resistance area.
While the $325 – $337 resistance area remains an obstacle to continued upward movement, a daily close above this resistance level would give the nod to analysts that a bullish market might bolster the increase. Conversely, a rejection could bring the price action back to a retest of the long-term resistance line at $300.
With the Pioneer Burn Program in place, Binance remains dedicated to providing innovative solutions to its users as it strives to push the envelope in the digital currency space.
The Purpose of BNB
Binance Coin (BNB) is a digital asset that serves as the native coin of the Binance Chain, a blockchain ecosystem developed by the cryptocurrency exchange, Binance. BNB began as an ERC20 token on the Ethereum blockchain during its initial coin offering (ICO) in July 2017. However, it has since migrated to Binance Chain to become the core digital currency of the platform.
Currently, BNB has a maximum of 200 million tokens, with an Auto-Burn system in place to reduce the total supply to 100 million tokens. This mechanism ensures greater predictability and transparency for the community since the amount of BNB burned is adjusted based on its price and the number of blocks generated on the Binance Smart Chain.
BNB’s versatility is one of the most prominent features of this digital asset. It can be used for settling transaction fees, purchasing goods and services on Binance Smart Chain, and availing exclusive token sales and other incentives provided by Binance for its loyal users.
As of the second quarter of 2023, Binance remains the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the world, providing a volume of $68,096,925,720. BNB remains a significant digital asset in the cryptocurrency market due to its expanding infrastructure and growing base of users.
