BNB Chain has become a hotspot for memecoins, now representing 11.4% of global meme activity, approaching Ethereum’s 12%, while Solana’s memecoin market slows.
Freshly launched tokens such as 币安人生 (“Binance Life”), 客户小何 (“Customer Xiaohe”), and 空气币 (“Air Coin”) have skyrocketed thousands of percent within hours, pushing daily volumes into the tens of millions. Data from Bubblemaps shows 100,000+ new traders joined the BNB memecoin surge in the last 48 hours, with 70% already showing paper profits. Around 40 wallets have minted gains above $1 million, and at least one wallet surpassed $10 million.
Many of these tokens carry direct Binance or CZ branding, such as 4ever, based on Zhao’s “ignore FUD” meme, and Broccoli-themed spin-offs. Each post or reaction by Zhao on X fuels further speculation, creating a recursive surge in BNB-linked memecoins. In the past 24 hours, the top ten new BNB memecoins recorded over $82 million in trading volume, according to DEXTools.
Despite the frenzy, older BNB memecoins like BROCCOLI and MUBARAK remain 90% below peak, highlighting the market’s volatility. Meanwhile, BNB itself has surged past $1,200, benefiting from the meme-driven trading loop. Year-to-date, BNB has outperformed BTC and ETH, recently overtaking XRP to claim the third-largest token by market cap.
The combination of whale accumulation, retail participation, and CZ-linked token branding positions BNB Chain as a major player in the memecoin ecosystem, though volatility remains a defining feature of this speculative market.
