Binance’s BNB Could Hit $2,775 By 2028, Predicts Standard Chartered

Summary

Standard Chartered has begun formal coverage of Binance's exchange token, BNB, predicting a price increase from approximately $600 to $1,275 by 2025 and $2,775 by 2028, representing a potential gain of over 360%. BNB is expected to maintain a benchmark-like role in the crypto market, closely tracking Bitcoin and Ethereum. Bitcoin is projected to reach $200,000 in 2025 and $500,000 by 2028, while Ethereum is forecasted at $4,000 and $7,500, respectively. The BTC-BNB ratio is anticipated to rise from 157 in 2025 to 180 by 2027, indicating Bitcoin's appreciation will outpace BNB's. The ETH-BNB ratio is expected to decline from 3.14 in 2025 to 2.70 in 2027, suggesting Ethereum will outperform BNB but less dramatically than Bitcoin. BNB's value is supported by its deflationary tokenomics and its connection to Binance. The BNB Chain's architecture is noted for its centralization and stagnation in developer activity. Upcoming upgrades are expected to enhance the ecosystem's resilience. Regular token burns and a fixed supply contribute to BNB's structural deflation. At press time, BNB was trading at $605.
