BNC Just Made A Loud Move On $BNB, All You Need To Know » The Merkle News
The Nasdaq-listed BNB Network Company, the treasury arm of CEA Industries, bought 200,000 $BNB for about $160 million. That purchase makes BNC the largest publicly listed holder of the token.
This is not a one-off. BNC says it will keep buying $BNB until its initial treasury capital is burned through. The company also has a warrant structure that could add up to $750 million more in capital. If those warrants are fully exercised, BNC could deploy roughly $1.25 billion into BNB over time.

Corporate treasuries aren’t just a Bitcoin and Ethereum game anymore. Big firms are now willing to hold platform tokens as reserve assets. That shift matters. It signals confidence in utility tokens that power major blockchains.
Markets reacted. At the time of the announcement $BNB jumped past the $825 mark, logging a daily gain north of 2%. The knee-jerk move shows how liquidity and headlines combine to lift a token fast.
$BNB Price Action Data To Monitor
For a quick data point: CoinMarketCap lists BNB trading in the low $800s (live price snapshots show around $832.57 and a market cap in the triple digits of billions). Keep in mind live numbers move, but that’s the short data traders use to size positions.
Who’s backing this? The private placement that funded the strategy was led by 10X Capital and supported by YZi Labs. The new management roster includes executives with deep institutional and crypto pedigrees, names like David Namdar (Galaxy Digital co-founder) show that old-line crypto operators are now steering public-company treasuries.
What this means for traders and swing players: the primary trend in BNB is still up. Momentum is real. FOMO is palpable. Short-term traders should watch the $800–$850 range as the first support zone. If volume stays high through the next sessions, that zone will probably hold as buyers step in. If volume falls off, expect choppy price action and quick profit-taking.
Strategy quick-hits:
- New money is piling in via a structured, public approach. That helps reduce headline risk over the medium term.
- For swing traders: build into dips near $800–$850 with a plan to lock profits into rallies.
- For longer-term holders: this is institutional validation for BNB’s role in the ecosystem, but don’t ignore token-specific risks (burn schedule, regulatory noise, market cycles).
BNC’s play is a test case. If the warrants are exercised and more capital flows in, corporates may chase returns in non-Bitcoin reserve assets. That would widen the treasury playbook for listed companies and change how institutional flows interact with platform tokens.
