BNB Price Hits New ATH at $882.59
Defying the broad crypto market correction, Binance Coin has surged to new highs today. With a 2.5% surge today, overcoming its week-long correction, the BNB price has hit the $882.59 milestone. Notably, the token has since moved past the ATH, currently trading at $851.57 with $118.6B ($120B on ATH) in market capitalization; the rally is significant.

This happened, as the token showed strong resilience despite the Bitcoin price crash. Additionally, its high adoption and growing investor confidence, coupled with $3.59B in trading volume, fueled its uptrend.
Here, the BNC became the largest BNB corporate holder with $283M buy. Additionally, Windtree Therapeutics also allocated $60M to this token earlier this year. Besides, the number of active users recently hit 16.8 million per Token Terminal, the highest in 2025.
Daily transactions and TVL also grew, exchange holdings decreased, and the recent $1.76M short liquidation supported the uptrend. Experts also note that the formation of a double bottom pattern around $820 between August 18 and 20 also contributed to the bullish reversal.
