Binance Coin (BNB): The Upcoming March Burn
Binance Coin was doing well until the last week when this currency suffered from a series of falls that affected its dealing price. However, we have learned from the past experiences that trading in red doesn’t always necessarily need to be a bad thing. So, our goal here is to analyze how badly can this fall affect Binance Coin and see how BNB has been doing for the past couple of months.
What is Binance Coin?
Binance Coin is cryptocurrency set behind one of the largest trading platforms – Binance. Although maybe one of the most popular exchanges on the crypto market, Binance didn’t start with trading until July 2017, so this exchange market is still very young.
This platform started with dealing with exchanges when it successfully attracted ICO – the Initial Coin Offerings – and ever since then Binance became known as one of the greatest exchange platforms. The main reason for that might be the fact that Binance takes really low fees that don’t ever go over 0.1% of the initial currency exchange.
Another reason for having so many investors make up their minds for Binance is the fact that this platform operates pretty fast. Binance can process approximately 1.4 million orders in the matter of a second, which ranks it among the top exchange platforms with the greatest potential.
Binance Coin represents a project launched by Binance platform and this currency is available for exchange and trading as well. The amount of Binance Coin is limited to 200 million BNB units – from this amount, 50% will be sold across exchange platforms, while 40% belongs to the team behind the coin and 10% goes to Angel Investors.
Angel Investor is a popular name for investors who buy large amounts of coins, making them very important for the crypto market, especially developing currencies that are still trading at low.
So, since Binance Coin is working hand in hand with one of the largest exchange platforms, this currency should have a great potential, right?
Let’s see.
How is Binance Coin doing at the Current Moment?
January 2018 was pretty easy on Binance Coin as this currency was trading up in green for a long period of time. This January tradition ended for BNB after it was last traded in green for over 10% up against the dollar. This was the case up until February 1st. After the mentioned date, BNB fell down for over -13% against the dollar. To be clear, BNB was trading in red for the entire month – it had its ups and downs during this rocky month, where BNB even managed to gain a market capitalization of over 46 million dollars in a trading volume of only 24 hours. This led to a total market cap of 930 million dollars.
The Upcoming March Burn
If you have been following up with BNB and the previous coin burns this currency went through, you surely remember that each of these burns got the BNB’s price up and jumping, The first coin burn set for October 2017 brought BNB from dealing around 1.7$ per one unit to dealing at 10$ per one coin. The second burn that occurred in January 2018 made BNB jump to dealing around 24$ per one coin which was a huge success.
Now that BNB is dealing at a bit over 8$ per one unit, the March burn will come as pretty benevolent as if is to believe the rumors. The BNB burn will surely occur in March, but the rumor that might be a bit disputable is that BNB will be dealing at 50$ after the scheduled burn.
This presumption cannot be far from the truth as the previous coin burnings showed as pretty effective in raising BNB’s price, but whether this currency will go up to 50$ is a matter yet to be tested and seen.
In case you believe that the March burn will have an amazing effect on Binance Coin the perfect time for investing would be now while BNB is still trading at 8$ per one unit.
