What is driving the BNB price surge?
BNB price rose to $1,111.90 after a 7.4% 24‑hour gain and a 17.5% weekly increase, driven by treasury accumulation, regular token burns and a broader market rally. Market data from CoinGecko and on‑chain metrics show stronger demand and growing network usage.
Analysts and institutional outlooks, including a May projection from Standard Chartered, link BNB’s upside to correlations with Bitcoin and Ether. Plain‑text market commentary from Cointelegraph highlighted earlier treasury buys as a contributor to upward momentum.

How has BNB Chain activity changed recently?
BNB Chain’s total locked value (TLV) increased to $8.23 billion, a 2.5% rise in 24 hours, while active addresses spiked to 73.24 million last month — the highest recorded level, according to DefiLlama data.
Transaction volumes reached the second‑largest monthly total at 4.34 million transactions, trailing only June’s peak. These metric improvements signal expanding on‑chain usage across wallets, DApps and trading platforms.

What upgrades are planned for BNB Chain?
BNB Chain validators adopted a new minimum gas price of 0.05 gwei to lower transaction costs and speed confirmations. The BNB team has signaled further changes to block gas limits and architecture upgrades to support high throughput.
Roadmap plans include increasing the BSC block gas limit from 100 million to 1 billion and, by 2026, pursuing an architecture capable of ~20,000 transactions per second with sub‑150 millisecond confirmations. Planned feature work includes native privacy functions, upgradable virtual machines and improved developer tools.

Which major upgrades already went live in 2025?
Two major upgrades completed earlier in 2025: the Lorentz Hard Fork in April reduced block times and improved validator networking, and the Maxwell upgrade in June optimized block production and validator coordination. Both upgrades aimed to improve latency and network throughput.

Frequently Asked Questions
How high can the BNB price go in 2025?
Professional forecasts vary; Standard Chartered projected a peak around $1,275 for 2025 based on correlations with BTC and ETH. Market dynamics, macro factors and on‑chain demand will influence any further upside.
Are token burns affecting BNB supply?
Yes. Regular token burns reduce circulating supply over time, which can enhance scarcity. Combined with treasury accumulation and demand growth, burns can contribute to upward price pressure.
What should users watch in BNB Chain metrics?
Monitor TLV, active addresses, transaction volumes, and gas price adoption. Sudden changes in these metrics can signal shifts in demand, network congestion or improved utility after upgrades.
Key Takeaways
- BNB price reached a new ATH: $1,111.90 after solid weekly gains and rising demand.

- Upgrades support growth: Recent Maxwell and Lorentz upgrades plus planned changes aim to boost throughput and lower costs.
Conclusion
BNB price strength reflects both demand dynamics—treasury buying and token burns—and rising BNB Chain activity. Network upgrades in 2025 improve capacity and user experience, potentially supporting further price resilience. Continue monitoring TLV, active addresses and upgrade adoption for forward signals.
