Binance Coin (BNB) Pops as Exchange Doubles Referral Bonus
Seemingly out of nowhere, Binance Coin (BNB) has exploded over the past 24 hours while the rest of the market stagnates in a growing sea of red. After a series of negative headlines wreaked havoc on the market for the last week(s), Binance Coin (BNB) has been chosen as the favorite currency to lead investors from the darkened corners of the altcoin market, and into the light of positive returns.
The market FUD leading to the current lows across the market came in with a tidal wave of bad news recently. The news cycle began hammering the crypto-universe with stories of Warren Buffet and Charlie Munger repeating their uneducated views on the state of our favorite crypto-company. Calling out Bitcoin (BTC) as a bad investment, old Buffett stirred the alternative currency pot once again expressing more than just general unease about investing in the most famous cryptocurrency. His unease was taken to another level, however, by Berkshire Hathaway’s Vice Chairman, as this ancient curmudgeon likened investing in the market to “trading freshly harvested baby brains.”
Like clockwork, in a seemingly scripted repeat of the market crash from earlier this year, within a week of negative publicity espoused from these shameful fiat cheerleaders, the South Korean government hammered the market with a raid on UPbit, an increasingly popular market responsible for a hefty portion of investments on their side of the world. While UPbit has been found to have done no wrong since the incident, clearing the exchange of the government’s accusations of deceit through an extensive audit, the damage nevertheless was done, and markets sank lower. Finally, if these stories weren’t enough, in an effort to affect market value in an overreach of epic proportions, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) targeted the likes of Ripple (XRP) threatening to weigh in on whether their currency should be considered a security.
With true elegance and grace, however, Binance (the world’s most popular altcoin exchange) has looked straight into the face of market FUD, facing the negativity head-on and lighting a candle for the hodling masses. With a show of strength, Binance has doubled their referral rewards, exciting investors and shining a light on the path to market recovery. With the news, Binance Coin (BNB) has shot up nearly twenty percent, raising the value of the currency alongside the hearts of the crypto community.
With a staggering list of popular currencies to choose from, Binance became known as the fastest-growing startup in history, reaching a billion dollar valuation with record speed earlier this year. The cryptocurrency associated with the exchange, Binance Coin (BNB), is used by participants to cut their fees in half when trading in and out of altcoins on the platform. And with regular coin burns, increasing platform stability and the constant additions of popular currencies, Binance and Binance Coin (BNB) are seen as must-have’s for investors clamoring to trade on our favorite exchange.
Binance Coin (BNB) is now sitting at $US 14.97 and may continue to gain value over the coming day(s). In February, the currency had fallen under US $6.00, crashing along with the entire coin market. The trend however now seems clear, and the current rise of this exchange-based cryptocurrency is bolstering the wallets of a brand new investor class. It would not be too far of a stretch to perceive a near-term future where this popular currency reaches a new all-time high. That reality may come sooner than anyone expects as we enter the next bull run. Get ready.

Hong Kong, Hong Kong, 25th January, 2021, // ChainWire //
Xeno Holdings Limited (xno.live ), a blockchain solutions company based in Hong Kong, has announced the listing of its ecosystem utility token XNO on the ‘Bithumb Korea’ cryptocurrency exchange on January 21st 2021.
Xeno NFT Hub (market.xno.live ), developed by Xeno Holdings, enables easy minting of digital items into NFTs while also providing a marketplace where anyone can securely trade NFTs.
The Xeno NFT Hub project team includes former members of the technology project Yosemite X based in San Francisco and professionals such as Gabby Dizon who is a games industry expert and NFT space influencer based in Southeast Asia.
NFT(Non-Fungible Token) technology has recently gained huge focus in the blockchain arena and beyond, making waves in the online gaming sector, the art world, and the digital copyrights industry in recent years. The strongest feature of NFTs is that “NFTs are unique digital assets that cannot be replaced or forged”. Unlike fungible tokens such as Bitcoin or Ether, NFTs are not interchangeable for other tokens of the same type but instead each NFT has a unique value and specific information that cannot be replaced. This fact makes NFTs the perfect solution to record and prove ownership of digital and real-world items like works of art, game items, limited-edition collectibles, and more. One of the ways to have a successful…
2020 has been an incredible year for crypto as investors have generated windfall profits and crypto projects have seen their businesses gain the spotlight they’ve been looking for. While Bitcoin has received most of the attention after major institutional investors announced they were accumulating the increasingly scarce asset, many altcoins have also seen their fair share of glory. When looking at all the big winners of the past year, the first project that probably comes to mind is Chainlink, having appreciated by more than 550% YTD and now valued at over $4.5 billion. But, the actual biggest winner of the year is HEX with a YTD return of over 5,000%.
I mention both of the above projects as they have each taken slightly different paths to achieve greatness. Chainlink has devoted resources toward building a fundamentally sound business with many strategic partnerships while HEX has spent vast sums of money on marketing and promotion. Both approaches are valid, but one thing is certain, it is absolutely imperative for crypto projects to let the crypto community know what makes them special. Of course, one of the reasons that makes crypto so valuable is the powerful blockchain technology that most projects are utilizing.
Cryptocurrency vs. Blockchain Technology
It’s important to make a distinction between blockchain technology and cryptocurrency. Although they are often used interchangeably, they are different. Blockchain technology and crypto were both created after the 2008 financial crisis, but cryptocurrency…

“NFTs are extremely flexible in their usage, from digital event tickets to artwork, and while NFTs have a very wide spectrum of uses and categories XENO will initially focus its partnership efforts and its own item curation on three primary areas: gaming, sports & entertainment, and collectibles.”, said XENO NFT Hub president Anthony Di Franco.
He also added “This does not mean we will prohibit other types of NFTs from our ecosystem However, it simply means that XENO’s efforts as a company will be targeted into these verticals initially as a cohesive business approach.”
Development and Procurement Lead, Gabby Dizon explained, “Despite our initial focus, we found ourselves with a unique opportunity to host some of the works of Mr. Hiro Yamagata. We are collaborating with Japanese artist Hiro Yamagata to enshrine some of his artwork into NFTs.”
