BNB Foundation Concludes 33rd Quarterly
The BNB Foundation has carried out its 33rd quarterly token burn, removing 1.441 million BNB tokens from circulation, worth $1.208 billion at the time of burning. This leaves a circulating supply of 137.738 million BNB, highlighting the foundation’s ongoing dedication to responsible token management and long-term value preservation for holders, according to
This latest burn coincides with a significant upswing in the BNB Chain ecosystem, fueled by innovations like the x402b protocol. This protocol has triggered a 366% surge in the market cap of x402 tokens, surpassing $800 million in just one day. Developed by Pieverse, the x402b upgrade brings EIP-3009 gasless transactions and verifiable on-chain receipts, boosting the protocol’s enterprise capabilities and integration with BNB Chain, as reported by
In addition, BNB Chain’s impact reaches beyond token economics, as Kyrgyzstan has achieved a landmark by introducing a national stablecoin pegged 1:1 to the Kyrgyz som (KGS) on the BNB Chain. This stablecoin, part of a larger digital modernization effort, aims to support both domestic and international payments, with a pilot Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) for government use planned for early 2026, according to
The BNB Chain ecosystem is also expanding through regulatory and educational efforts, such as localized Binance Academy courses and specialized law enforcement training in crypto investigations. With Kyrgyzstan’s National Council on Blockchain working on legal guidelines for stablecoins and a regulatory sandbox for startups, the country is positioning itself as a leader in blockchain development. This approach supports Binance’s strategy to deepen government partnerships and broaden its international reach following regulatory challenges in the U.S.
As the crypto industry digests these advancements, the 33rd BNB burn bolsters trust in the asset’s scarcity model, while ecosystem upgrades like x402b and Kyrgyzstan’s stablecoin highlight BNB Chain’s expanding role. With transparent governance and strategic alliances, BNB is well-placed to remain influential in the evolving blockchain sector.
