The "BSC system" has dominated the list of growth. Does CZ heat drive the BNBChain ecosystem to soar?

Author: Penny, BlockBeats

As the founder and largest shareholder of Binance, CZ's every word and action may affect market sentiment and trends. Recently, CZ has been "supporting" for BNB Chain on Twitter, launching BSC's meme coins on Binance, emphasizing the technological advantages and ecological potential of BNB Chain, drawing a development blueprint for 2025, and arousing widespread market attention. Driven by CZ, BNB Chain eco-tokens ushered in general growth, setting a new high this year.

Every time CZ makes a sound, it is like a "deep water bomb", causing layers of turmoil in the crypto market. From the bold statement that "BNB Chain has been imprisoned for too long, it's time to unblock the constraints" to the change in attitude towards meme coins, CZ's return undoubtedly injects a booster into BNB Chain. And is this ecological boom triggered by the "CZ effect" a flash in the pan or is it the starting point for BNB Chain to return to the peak?

CZ returns, BNB Chain returns

To trace the origin of this round of BNB Chain craze, we have to mention TST. TST, Test Token, was originally just a token used in videos that demonstrated how to issue meme on the Four platform, but the video inadvertently exposed the contract address of TST, which allowed everyone to keenly capture a glimmer of opportunity. Soon, TST went from an unpopular test coin to the focus of hype, and TST's market attention quickly rose. When CZ issued a statement on a social platform to clarify that TST is not a project officially supported by Binance, it should have been a time to cool down. Unexpectedly, it became a catalyst for TST's popularity again, making TST more famous in the community. On February 6, its market capitalization was only $500,000, and CZ's response to TST tokens brought its market capitalization to exceed $50 million at one point. Immediately afterwards, Binance announced the launch of TST on February 9. TST's market value soared, exceeding US$500 million, with an increase of more than 100 times in just 3 days.

With TST leading the activity of BNB Chain as a prelude, on February 11, CZ announced on Twitter that "BNB Chain has been imprisoned for too long, it is time to untie the constraints", and on the 12th, it released its 2025 BNB Chain build goal. The field has triggered strong market expectations for ecological upgrading. On the 11th, BNB broke through US$640, with a 24-hour increase of 5.75%. Today's highest price reached US$725, and the market heat rebounded significantly.

After TST launched Binance, BNB Chain ecological tokens began to rise across the board, occupying the top spot in major exchanges. The following are some popular projects worth paying attention to by the author.

cake

PancakeSwap is one of the most popular AMM protocols on BNB Chain and a DEX widely used throughout the DeFi industry. CAKE is the native token of the PancakeSwap platform. PancakeSwap has low transaction fees (0.2% transaction fees) and rich features (such as farm, lottery, NFT market, etc.), and continues to lead in trading volume and user activity. At noon on the 13th, Cake's market value reached a maximum of US$7 billion, and as of writing, it had an increase of 38% in 24 hours.

Bake

BakerySwap is an automatic market maker with liquidity mining on the Binance smart chain, and BAKE is the platform's native BEP-20 governance token.

Bake tokens suddenly rose on the evening of the 12th, and its market value rose from around 110M US dollars to a maximum of 232.48M within 2 hours, an increase of more than 100%.

THE

Thena is a decentralized trading and liquidity agreement on BNB Chain, and is the first project launched by Binance after CZ was released from prison. Thanks to the technical support of BNB Chain, Thena's advantages lie in its low handling fees and high performance. The platform also supports liquidity pools of multiple token pairs and attracts users to participate through dynamically adjusted earnings strategies.

BNX has shown a relatively strong upward trend since the evening of the 8th, achieving a 4-fold increase in 4 days, with a maximum market value of more than US$700M at one point.

The CZ effect continues to exert force, and the "fake dog" meme suddenly

explodes in the early morning

In the early morning of February 13, Twitter user @theveeman asked CZ whether there were pet dogs in the comment area. CZ replied that he raised a "Belgian Malinois" rather than a Shiba Inu.

This reply quickly sparked fanatical speculation in the community, with a large number of users asking about the dog's name and photos, intending to create relevant Meme coins first. After interacting with the comment section many times, CZ posted: "I know the answer now. The way things work is very interesting, I will think about it for a day or so, just like I usually make big decisions. Is it respecting its privacy or for careers? And to open this dog? Maybe even interact with a few memes on BNB Chain.”

In order to dig out the real information about the dog, netizens launched a "carpet-style search". Someone found three dogs and a cat that the official Binance layer had posted in 2020. They were pets of Binance members, and some people speculated that one of them might be CZ. Someone also made a dog Perry wearing Binance clothes, and wrote that it had a close relationship with Binance, and it was very likely that it was CZ's dog... Until now, there are still endless claims to be "CZ's dog". "The meme coins are being issued continuously, and the market value of some meme coins has exceeded one million US dollars in a short period of time.

If CZ really wants to post a Meme in the name of your pet dog, it is possible to copy the $TRUMP surge model to further attract funds to flow into BNB Chain. The vigorous "fake dog" incident reflects the core driving force of Meme coins: celebrity effect + community consensus. Even without official endorsement, users can still push the tokens to rise by hyping up "orthodox narratives".

BNB Chain Potential Projects Inventory

Four.Meme

With the official CZ and BNBChain gradually embracing meme and mentioning meme in their 2025 plan, Four.Meme is benchmarked against Pump.fun on Solana, and a large number of memes will be launched on it in the future, so always pay attention to Four.Meme The new trends of hot topics will be a good investment direction.

As BNB Chain takes AI and meme as the future direction at the same time, AICell will be a target worth paying attention to.

Emerging Meme and Community Coins

Cheems: Binance Meme Coin

Koma: Emerging Meme Coins on BSC

With Coinbase’s background and low-cost advantages, Base Chain quickly became a star project of Ethereum Layer2. However, BNB Chain has recently competed with Base Chain in terms of transaction volume and user activity, especially in the outbreak of Meme Coin and DeFi projects. Meme coins on BNB Chain (such as FOUR and BinanceDog) have attracted a large amount of retail investors, driving the surge in on-chain Gas fees and transaction volume; PancakeSwap, Thena and other projects have further consolidated the BNB Chain by introducing mechanisms such as MEV protection and liquidity incentives. The status of the DeFi field.

Solana has become one of the most impressive public chains in 2024 with its high throughput and low fees, but its ecosystem is overly dependent on Meme coins and network stability problems occur frequently. If BNB Chain can achieve sub-second block time in 2025 and attract users and funds with richer ecological applications (such as DeFi, GameFi, AI), it is possible to surpass Solana in terms of throughput and expenses and jump to a top Level public chain.

With the return of CZ, BNB Chain has regained market attention through technological upgrades, ecological opening and Meme craze. In the short term, the speculative boom of Meme coins may bring volatility, but in the long term, BNB Chain is expected to stand out in the multi-chain competition and become the next generation of public chains with the combination of "high throughput, low fees and compliance". The core force of ecology.
