BNB, the native token of the Binance cryptocurrency exchange, demonstrated on Tuesday, December 4, a rapid growth after the head of the company Changpeng Zhao announced the imminent launch of his own blockchain platform called Binance Chain.
He made the corresponding statement during the “Decrypting Blockchain for Business” conference organized by Forbes Asia magazine.

“Very soon, in about a couple of months, we will launch the Binance Chain, and you will be able to issue tokens on it … I think there will be millions of coins and thousands of blockchains,” he quotes the head of Binance.
The fact that Binance is working on its own public blockchain, it became known in March of this year. At the same time the stock exchange reported that a decentralized stock exchange would be created on the Binance Chain.
In August, Changpeng Zhao showed a demo version of the future decentralized exchange from Binance. However, it was not mentioned during today's conference.
Be that as it may, the speech of the head of Binance led to a sharp increase in the BNB token, which in a few hours rose in price above $ 6.30, demonstrating an increase of more than 25%. Day ago, the token was trading at $ 5.04. A noticeable increase in the price of the token with respect to BTC also draws attention.
Earlier, BlockchainJournal reported that from December 4 to December 11, Binance, in collaboration with the virtual world, will hold a MANA bidding contest, in which traders will share the prize fund of 1,875,000 MANA.
