In a research note <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TheBlock__\/status\/1919771005217636578\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">shared<\/a> with The Block, Geoffrey Kendrick, the bank\u2019s global head of digital-asset research, argues that the token price could accelerate from roughly $600 today to $1,275 by 2025 and $2,775 by 2028, before \u201cplateauing\u201d through 2029.<\/p>\n<h2>BNB Could Spike By 360%<\/h2>\n<p>The path implies a gain of more than 360% from current levels and, crucially, situates the token in what Kendrick calls \u201ca benchmark-like role\u201d inside the wider crypto capital structure. \u201cBNB has traded almost exactly in line with an unweighted basket of Bitcoin and Ethereum since May 2021 in terms of both returns and volatility,\u201d Kendrick wrote. \u201cWe expect this relationship to continue to hold, driving the price from around $600 currently to $2,775 by end-2028.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Standard Chartered\u2019s broader outlook is unabashedly bullish on the majors: Bitcoin is projected to reach $200,000 in 2025 and $500,000 in 2028, while Ethereum is pencilled in at $4,000 and $7,500 over the same horizons. When those forecasts are translated into cross-asset ratios, they reveal subtle shifts in market share.<\/p>\n<p>The BTC-BNB ratio\u2014how many BNB one Bitcoin can buy\u2014is expected to tick up from 157 in 2025 to 180 by 2027, then hold steady, implying that Bitcoin\u2019s dollar appreciation is likely to outrun BNB\u2019s. By contrast, the ETH-BNB ratio is seen slipping from 3.14 in 2025 to 2.70 in 2027, signalling that Ethereum may outperform BNB, but more gently than Bitcoin will.<\/p>\n<p>Kendrick acknowledges that BNB \u201cmay underperform Bitcoin and Ether both in real terms and as measured by market cap in circulation,\u201d yet he contends that its deflationary tokenomics and deep linkage to the world\u2019s largest centralized exchange \u201csupport its long-term value.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-746381 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/bnb-stanchart.png?resize=1024%2C521\" alt=\"BNB price prediction\" width=\"1024\" height=\"521\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The research note scrutinises BNB Chain\u2019s architecture. Its \u201cproof-of-staked authority\u201d model rotates just 45 validators every 24 hours\u2014a sharp contrast to Ethereum\u2019s million-plus validator set. Kendrick describes BNB Chain as \u201chighly centralised relative to other chains,\u201d adding that its developer activity has \u201cstagnated\u201d since the 2021 DeFi surge and now trails networks such as Avalanche and Ethereum.<\/p>\n<p>Even so, forthcoming technical milestones are expected to expand the ecosystem\u2019s resilience. Kendrick cites the recently completed Pascal hard fork and the looming Maxwell upgrade, due in June, as examples of \u201cincremental but meaningful\u201d incentives for developers.<\/p>\n<p>On the demand side, the token&#8217;s fortunes remain tethered to Binance\u2019s trading engine. Holders receive tiered fee discounts calculated on their token balance and 30-day volume\u2014a mechanically enforced use-case that has so far \u201chelped the BNB Chain retain activity even as competition from other ecosystems like Solana grows,\u201d Kendrick notes. PancakeSwap, the dominant decentralised exchange on BNB Chain, amplifies that liquidity loop.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, regular token burns, coupled with the fixed-limit supply, underpin a structural deflation that Standard Chartered says justifies the premium BNB commands on its market-cap-to-GDP valuation screen\u2014currently \u201crich\u201d by the bank\u2019s preferred metric.<\/p>\n<p>At press time, BNB traded at $605.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-746385\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/BNBUSDT_2025-05-07_15-53-24.png?resize=1024%2C453\" alt=\"BNB price\" width=\"1024\" height=\"453\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Standard Chartered has initiated formal coverage of Binance\u2019s exchange token, BNB, and set out one of the industry\u2019s most detailed long-term trajectories for the asset.
