Despite the general digital assets market downturn, Binance Coin (BNB) has held strong. While other coins like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana reached new lows after a recent selloff, BNB's price has maintained its resilience.

According to CoinMarketCap data at press time, Binance Coin was trading at $587.96, showing a 2.77% decrease in the last 24 hours.

During the market downturn, BNB's price recovered from its low price of $579.44 to its current level. The coin's trading volume also increased by 28.03% to $2.22 billion in the last 24 hours.

On April 1, $115 billion asset manager VanEck filed for a BNB ETF, the latest among its list of crypto ETF filings. This move helped give BNB a major headstart at the start of the month.

BNB's recent price performance was driven by its utility within the Binance ecosystem, which is understandable given the coin's ties to the Binance ecosystem.

As reported by Chain Active, since February, BNB Chain has benefited from an increase in Total Value Locked (TVL), rising activity in decentralized finance (DeFi), and growing daily active users (DAUs) on BNB Chain.

This has ultimately helped to underpin the Binance-linked asset's price performance in the market.

Market analyst Elja shared his review of BNB's prospects amid the ongoing market rout in a recent post on X.

As seen on the chart above, BNB's price action has decoupled from the performance of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and top altcoins. While these assets have printed new lows from their high price points, BNB remains 18% higher than that level.

This strong performance is driven by speculation and BNB's real utility, as the coin serves as the fuel for Binance and BNB Chain. Since February, BNB Chain has experienced growth in TVL, daily active users, and DEX volumes.

Elja's post further highlighted that Binance handles 44% of global crypto trading volume, presenting a solid foundation that can power BNB's growth.

According to the current update, the Binance Coin is at a crucial spot. In an earlier Binance Coin price analysis, analysts from Benzinga laid out conditions for the coin to hit a fresh ATH of $720. For this to happen, the Binance-linked asset must maintain sustained support above $600.

However, there are concerns that regulatory challenges could pose risks, and the coin may need to continue to prove its value in the Binance ecosystem.

While the future remains uncertain, BNB could reach $700 by the end of 2025 per projections. However, the possibilities around the asset leave room for surprises.
