The native token of world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange Binance, BNB, has finally broken through a level that many have considered impossible for years. Setting a new all-time high at $903 before settling just under that line, this move instantly placed BNB back at the center of the market conversation.
Adding to the moment, Binance founder Changpeng Zhao, or CZ as he is better known online, reacted to the all-time high with a post that was as laconic as it was provocative.
