BNB Hits Milestone High
“Appreciations to all the ecosystem players, BTC maxis, ETH holders, meme traders, ETF applicants, treasury companies, good regulators, and utility builders,” said former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao in celebration of the milestone.
The big move has added 300% to BNB price since its October 2023 bear market low of $200. The pump has followed news this week that Nasdaq-listed Nano Labs has become the first publicly listed company to create a BNB treasury with 120,000 BNB worth around $90 million at the time in reserves.
The Web3 infrastructure provider purchased an additional 45,685 BNB through over-the-counter (OTC) transactions at an average purchase price of $764 per token on Tuesday.
In June, the Chinese blockchain company announced a $500 million convertible notes deal to fund its BNB purchases with aims to acquire up to 10% of the circulating supply.
There is currently 139 million BNB in circulation out of a total supply of 200 million.
Update from Nano Labs (Nasdaq: $NA)
We’ve significantly increased our $BNB holdings to 120,000 BNB (~$90M), acquired at an avg. cost of $707/token — a major milestone in upgrading our BNB strategic reserve.
We’re building for the future of Web3.

The move is part of a growing trend of crypto treasury companies that have started off with Bitcoin and Ethereum and are now branching into other altcoins.
