BNB Posts 5,354% ROI as Binance Reaffirms Long-Term Commitment

What To Know:

• Binance says $BNB has delivered over 5,354% returns since launch, highlighting long-term ecosystem growth.
• Stablecoin reserves on Binance now total $47.5B, accounting for about 65% of liquidity across centralized exchanges, per CryptoQuant.
• CEO Richard Teng defended compliance standards after reports of Iran-linked transactions, citing global AML controls and law enforcement cooperation.

Binance’s native crypto, $BNB, has recorded a return of more than 5,354% since the exchange launched over eight years ago. According to Binance co-founder and Chief Marketing Officer He Yi, the long-term performance of $BNB reflects both the growth of the platform and the strength of its user community.

Yi said many early users have seen important gains through their participation in Binance and its token ecosystem. She also credited the exchange’s volunteer network, known as Binance Angels, for sustaining community growth. Many of these contributors have supported Binance for between five and eight years, often without compensation, she noted.

According to Yi, Binance promotes a philosophy of shared prosperity and reciprocal cooperation across the industry. She said the company is not looking for a confrontation, but remains prepared to respond to market rivalry as it changes. Yi said Binance also seeks to sustain its long-term presence by adapting to market changes and operating within a relatively stable strategic framework. Meanwhile, Yi stressed that, while Binance aims to build a trusted platform, investment decisions ultimately rest with users, who must conduct their own research.

According to figures by CryptoQuant, roughly $47.5 billion in $USDT and USDC reserves are currently held on Binance. This accounts to about 65% of all stablecoin liquidity across centralized trading venues. The data indicates that capital remains within the crypto market, but is increasingly concentrated on a smaller number of large exchanges. Market performance for $BNB has remained relatively stable even amid general market pressure. At the time of writing, $BNB is trading at $615.59, i.e., a dip of 0.2% over the past 24 hours.

Apart from $BNB’s impressive ROI, development activity within the $BNB Chain ecosystem has also seen significant changes. The network recently introduced support for AI agent standards ERC-8004 and BAP-578, aiming to enable scalable identity systems for autonomous on-chain agents with low transaction costs and fast settlement. By February 17, the ecosystem had grown to sixty-three AI-focused projects across 10 categories, including infrastructure, decentralized finance, social platforms, trading, gaming, and entertainment.

Binance had been recently embroiled in a controversy after reports that, between March 2024 and August 2025, over $1 billion of $USDT transactions filtered through the Tron blockchain may have been linked to entities in Iran. The accusations raised flags over sanctions compliance and transaction monitoring. Binance’s CEO Richard Teng dismissed the allegations as ‘misleading’ and based on anonymous sources. Teng said Binance has a global compliance team of over 1,300 employees and adheres to anti-money-laundering and sanctions standards. Binance uses third-party monitoring tools i.e., Elliptic, Chainalysis and TRM Labs that screen transactions in real time and flag suspicious activity, he added. The exchange reports potential violations to law enforcement agencies and cooperates with investigations when required, he said.

Teng also said Binance continues to work with regulators and law enforcement bodies worldwide to combat financial crime.

He noted that such efforts have been acknowledged by authorities including the Hong Kong Police Force. He added that compliance norms continue to change and that the company will maintain its monitoring and enforcement efforts as illicit actors adopt more sophisticated techniques.
