- BNB (Binance Coin) reached a new all-time high of $1,370 on October 13, up approximately 6% since the start of the month.
- A cryptocurrency wallet turned $3,000 into $2 million following a post by Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao about a memecoin on October 4.
- On October 8, BNB Chain’s Four.meme accounted for over 83% of new token launches, surpassing Solana’s Pump.fun.
- The crypto market faced its largest liquidation event ever, with $19 billion wiped out and around $450 billion lost in total market capitalization.
- Despite scrutiny over Binance’s role in the crash and technical glitches affecting trading, BNB Chain led all blockchains in total fees generated last week.
October has historically been favorable for Bitcoin, but this year it is marked by Binance’s BNB Chain outperforming with significant memecoin activity and record highs amidst broader market turmoil.
As Bitcoin struggles through its worst October in over a decade, BNB has managed to capitalize on recent trends, evidenced by its peak at $1,370 amidst significant trading volume and activity on the platform. (Source)
