BNB Surpasses $1000 and Sets New All-Time High Amidst News of the Fed and US Justice Department Talks

On September 18, 2025, the BNB token set a new all-time high, surpassing the $1000 mark. According to TradingView data, at the time of publication, the coin is trading at $1002. Analysts attribute the growth to two key factors: the decision by the US Federal Reserve to lower the interest rate and information about talks with the US Department of Justice regarding the possible conclusion of external monitoring imposed under a previous agreement.

BNB maintains its position in the top 5 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. According to CoinMarketCap, the figure reached $138.35 billion, and the daily trading volume increased by 11.45%, exceeding $3.73 billion.
The growth in interest in the asset is also supported by long-term fundamental factors. On July 23, BNB surpassed the $800 mark following the completion of the 32nd quarterly burn, during which 1.59 million tokens worth approximately $1.02 billion were destroyed. More than 39 million coins remain to be removed from circulation to reach the target issuance.
BNB Chain developers previously announced a major network upgrade that will increase throughput to 5000 swaps on DEX per second and raise the gas limit per block tenfold to 1G.
Additional drivers include institutional initiatives. In particular:
- CEA Industries and 10X Capital, supported by YZi Labs, announced a private placement of $500 million in shares and $750 million in warrants to form the world’s largest corporate BNB reserve;
- CEA Industries has already created its own reserve of $160 million, becoming the largest public company by asset holdings;
- investment company B Strategy announced plans to launch a $1 billion reserve management.
Meanwhile, market expectations are growing for the launch of the first spot BNB-ETF in the US. Companies REX Shares and Osprey Funds have filed an application with the SEC, and if approved, trading could start as early as November 9, 2025.
