BinaryX ($BNX) is making waves in the online gaming world with its focus on cryptocurrency and blockchain-based games. The platform offers a range of services for developers, including an NFT trading market, an Initial Game Offering (IGO) platform, and a high-speed sidechain tailored for GameFi.

Currently, $BNX holds a market cap of over $522 million, trading at around $1.4.

This substantial growth, coupled with the expanding popularity of GameFi, positions $BNX favorably in this bull market.

  • Spot Bitcoin ETFs have recorded over $2.5 billion in trading volume today, reflecting a significant level of activity in the market.
