$BNB
Binance Coin (BNB) is going through a turbulent period:
1. Chain Merger: Binance merged the BNB Beacon Chain with the BNB Smart Chain, ending the former’s features to enhance the network’s security and efficiency.
2. Price Drop: BNB recently dropped below 640 USDT, reflecting the volatility of the current crypto market.
3. CZ Departs: Changpeng Zhao, former CEO of Binance, has stepped down after a settlement with the US court, imposing a $200 million fine. Richard Teng steps in to stabilize the company in the face of regulatory challenges.
