BNB Spikes 33% Within 24 Hours as Crypto Market Starts to Regain: Here Are Likely Reasons

Binance Coin (BNB) has displayed a spike of 33% since yesterday, and the head of Binance, CZ, noted it in his recent tweet, typing “BNB.”

In the meantime, the transaction volume on the BNB Chain has soared to a high last seen nearly half a year ago. XRP, ADA, and SOL have also recovered to within 15-20%.

BNB recovers by 33% as its transaction volume soars

Since last morning, the native cryptocurrency of the Binance exchange, BNB, ranked fourth on CoinMarketCap, has added a whole 33% to its market value. At press time, the coin is trading at $305, climbing from $230 to that level.

Before that, on April 20, BNB began to decline from the $428 zone, reaching a low of $227 on May 12.

The Twitter of the BNB chain has posted a tweet, stating that the volume of transactions on the network has soared to record numbers last seen in December.

Moreover, it seems that after the LUNA crash, investors rushed to buy the top 10 cryptos, including Bitcoin, ETH, SOL, and BNB.

CZ offers a plan as to how UST/LUNA could have been saved

Another likely reason for the BNB price uptick in the recent tweet of CZ Binance, in which he wrote that he got in touch with the LUNA/UST team and offered them a detailed plan on how to reverse the crash of both coins.

His suggestion to the team was that the Terra network had to be restored, and the extra LUNA minted should have been burned and the UST peg recovered. He got no response from them, so CZ tweeted that he was very disappointed with the way they “handled (or not handled)” the situation.

As a result, Binance chose to suspend LUNA and UST trading to protect their customers.

He stated that some traders on Binance again rushed to buy LUNA “on the dip” since deposits were allowed at that moment. They were ignorant of the fact they were buying newly minted LUNA, CZ stressed.

He also agreed that Binance usually tries to help crypto projects that got into trouble and does not criticize them. This time, however, the circumstances drove CZ to break that rule.
