BNB Chain, a blockchain network initiated by cryptocurrency exchange Binance, has announced its strategic outlook for 2024, introducing the “One BNB Paradigm.”
The initiative, outlined in BNB Chain’s 2024 roadmap published on Wednesday, aims to consolidate its ecosystem, enhancing the integration of decentralized finance (DeFi), gaming, and artificial intelligence (AI).
The plan includes goals such as improving transaction efficiency, enhancing security protocols, and fostering a more inclusive and sustainable ecosystem.
The BNB Chain consists of a governance layer known as the BNB Beacon Chain, a smart contract settlement layer called the BNB Smart Chain (BSC), and a storage layer named BNB Greenfield. The ecosystem also has scaling layers, zkBNB and opBNB, and is powered by Binance’s native token, BNB.
According to the network’s 2024 roadmap, the “One BNB” multi-chain concept connects BSC, opBNB and Greenfield, to offer a unified platform for decentralized computing and data storage.
BNB Chain claimed in its roadmap that it has the most actively used layer-1 blockchain with 32 million daily transactions on the BSC.
The blockchain is home to the world’s third-largest decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem with US$3.55 billion in total value locked (TVL) — a metric used to measure the value of cryptocurrencies deposited into the network’s decentralized applications. BSC’s TVL accounts for 6.23% of all DeFi networks, according to DeFiLlama data. Ethereum’s US$32.05 billion in TVL dominates 56.2% of the world’s DeFi pie.
BNB Chain is also among the top blockchains for non-fungible tokens. The network has US$35.9 million in total NFT sales, ranking it the ninth-most active in the world, CryptoSlam data shows.
BNB Chain developers plan to merge the Beacon Chain and the BSC to streamline operations this coming April.
The BNB token fell 1.7% in the past 24 hours to US$305 at 1:00 p.m. ET.

وبالنظر إلى بیانات السنوات الماضیة، یعتقد العدید من المحللین أن البیتکوین سیدخل فی زخم تصاعدی کبیر بعد تخفیض المکافأة التالی. وأحد هذه الأسماء، مؤسس سکای بریدج کابیتال أنتونی سکاراموتشی، الذی یعتقد أن البیتکوین سیبدأ حرکته التصاعدیة المبهرة فی عام 2024 والسنوات التالیة.
ومن المتوقع أن یتم عقد حدث خفض مکافأة البیتکوین إلى النصف، والذی یقام کل 4 سنوات، فی 16 أبریل. وبعد هذا التاریخ، ستنخفض مکافأة البیتکوین التی سیحصل علیها القائمون بالتعدین لکل کتلة یتم تعدینها من 6.35 بیتکوین إلى 3,125 بیتکوین. وبالتالی، سینخفض المعروض من البیتکوین بشکل کبیر وتصبح الأصول أکثر ندرة، مما یشیر نظریًا إلى زیادة فی قیمتها عندما تظل المتغیرات الأخرى ثابتة. وبالإضافة إلى ذلک، فی حین یعتبر تکامل البیتکوین المتزاید مع الأسواق العالمیة عاملاً یزید من الطلب علیه، إلا أن العدید من المحللین یظلون متفائلین بشأن قیمة العملة المشفرة.
یتوقع أنتونی سکاراموتشی أن یصل البیتکوین إلى مستوى 170 ألف دولار فی فترة 18 شهرًا بعد التنصیف. وقد أرجع سکاراموتشی هذا التوقع إلى مضاعفة قیمة بیتکوین أربع مرات خلال نفس الفترة بعد التنصیف السابق. وأکد سکاراموتشی أیضًا أنه إذا وصل BTC إلى مستوى 50 ألف دولار فی أبریل، فقد یرتفع إلى 200 ألف دولار فی غضون 18 شهرًا بعد التنصیف، وفقًا للتوقعات. وقد شارک سکاراموتشی أیضًا وجهة نظره طویلة المدى حول البودکاست. ووفقا لمؤسس شرکة سکای بریدج کابیتال، فإن البیتکوین سیصل إلى نصف القیمة السوقیة للذهب على المدى الطویل وسیرتفع إلى مستوى سعری یزید عن 300 ألف دولار وفقا لهذه القیمة السوقیة.
فی حین أمضت أسواق العملات المشفرة عام 2023 کمرحلة تعافی بعد السلبیات التی شهدتها عام 2022. ثم بدأت الأسواق عام 2024 فی ظل تطورات إیجابیة یمکن أن تزید حجم المعاملات بشکل کبیر، مثل إعادة هیکلة العدید من شرکات العملات المشفرة التی تعانی من أزمات سیولة وصندوق تداول فی البورصة عالمیًا. وبالإضافة إلى ذلک، فی حین أن تأثیر النصف، الذی سیقلل من المعروض من البیتکوین، موجود على أجندة سوق العملات المشفرة، یواصل المشارکون فی السوق الحفاظ على تفاؤلهم العام تجاه الصناعة.

The UK is becoming increasingly isolated as one of the few major global markets to continue to hold back from approving retail access to cryptocurrency exchange traded products. Continental Europe has them, as do Australia, Brazil and Canada. The US has followed suit most recently with spot bitcoin ETFs, prompting Hong Kong to say it will also jump on board. Yet the UK will not even let small investors buy those listed elsewhere even though Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has championed the UK as a crypto hub and has advocated for a regulatory framework that allows the sector to flourish in Britain. The high-profile launch of 10 spot bitcoin ETFs on Wall Street earlier this month, some managed by household names such as BlackRock, Invesco and Fidelity, has heightened the UK’s divergence from most other financial hubs. The UK’s stance was defined by a ruling in 2021, when its regulator, the Financial Conduct Authority, banned the sale of cryptocurrency-related “derivatives” — including exchange traded products — to UK retail investors. The FCA’s ban appeared to be largely motivated by the emergence of leveraged products such as contracts for difference, with some operators offering as much as 100 times leverage on bitcoin, itself a highly volatile token. However, it also swept up unleveraged products such as plain vanilla ETPs and futures. Some industry figures disagree with where the FCA has chosen to draw the line. It did not intervene, for example, in the trading by retail investors of digital tokens directly via crypto exchanges. UK retail investors “can invest in crypto, just not through the regulated products”, said Bradley Duke, chief strategist of London-based ETC Group. Its $1bn Physical Bitcoin exchange traded commodity is listed on Euronext Amsterdam and Paris, Frankfurt’s Xetra exchange, the SIX Swiss Exchange and Chicago’s CBOE, but cannot be on the London stock exchange because of the retail ban. In aggregate, continental Europe boasts 120 crypto ETPs with €8.4bn of assets, according to TrackInsight. “A UK retail investor can’t invest in a product like ours, a Mifid II [EU regulated] instrument, listed on a regulated exchange and sold through a regulated broker, who would screen you for applicability, depending on your investment objectives and profile,” Duke said. “But they can go to a crypto exchange and buy bitcoin without going through any checks and balances, and to me that doesn’t really make sense.” Andrew Prosser, head of investments at InvestEngine, a London-based investment platform whose 34,000 clients hold £320mn across almost 600 ETFs, said UK retail investors had two options if they want crypto exposure. “They can either buy the coins themselves from digital exchanges. That comes with several problems: the need for digital wallets, private keys, the risk of theft. Or they can buy the shares of companies that track crypto, such as exchanges or miners,” Prosser said. He said there were lots of requests on InvestEngine’s community forum for ETPs investing directly in crypto. “So there is demand for it,” he said. Hector McNeil, co-founder and co-chief executive of London-based HANetf, which lists six ETC Group cryptocurrency vehicles on its ETF platform, said it was “getting a lot more calls from advisers and discretionary fund managers”, about crypto since this month’s flurry of US launches. McNeil said that the recent launches in the US with managers such as BlackRock and Invesco getting involved, meant the asset class was now mainstream. “I think the FCA will have to reassess their position,” he said. However, he did not believe the regulator should completely open the floodgates to all of the UK’s estimated 9mn self-directed investors. “I don’t agree with general access,” he said, adding that with any more complex product there should be “some sort of gating”. “If it’s somebody like me putting 3 per cent of their portfolio in, that should be fine. If it’s my mother wanting to put 100 per cent in because her friend down the social club told her she made loads of money, then I don’t think that’s right,” McNeil added. But he also said crypto ETPs were “no more complex” than inverse or leveraged products, where “there is a procedure for brokers to give access” to investors who pass a suitability test and have an adequate balance sheet. “You can’t tell me it’s more risky that trading 30 times leverage on a CFD [contract for difference] or spread bet,” McNeil added. All the UK regulator had done, he said, is to “push people to dodgy crypto exchanges. I don’t think they have achieved what they wanted to achieve.” Small investors “are going through unregulated or under-regulated exchanges where there is no broker involved and there is no one looking out for the suitability of their investments”, said Duke. “They have to hold the cryptocurrency themselves, which is risky.” Despite these arguments, Prosser is not convinced the FCA, which declined to comment for this story, will buckle. When the regulator announced its ban in 2021 it also raised concerns about the “integrity” of the underlying crypto market, its volatility and its links to financial crime. “Unless the case can be made that crypto has meaningfully changed in the last three years, it’s hard to see why the FCA would authorise them,” Prosser said, while the FCA’s Consumer Duty rules requiring companies to demonstrate fair value for clients, introduced last year, “places a lot more duty to assess risk on investment platforms”. Jason Hollands, managing director of Bestinvest, a DIY investing platform, agreed. “I am personally doubtful that the FCA will authorise bitcoin or other cryptocurrency ETFs to be made accessible to UK retail investors any time soon,” he said. “The FCA has repeatedly flagged concerns about the extreme volatility of cryptoassets, the high risk of losses and the difficulties retail investors face in valuing them.”
