Binance has an ongoing lawsuit with the SEC has yet to yield favorable results, contributing to a consistent decline in the market share of Binance US. In addition, The substantial erosion of user trust is directly impacting BNB prices negatively.

For me, avoid (or reduce) investing in cryptocurrencies that have legal problems is a reasonable choice. :sunglasses:

Currently, BNB Chain (Build & Build Chain) is a new blockchain developed by combining Binance Smart Chain and Binance Chain.

The goal of BNB Chain in targeting MetaFi is to blockchainize all existing Web2 applications such as social networks, games, metaverse, etc., moving towards the future of Web3.

From a positive perspective, on the technology platform, BNB has great potential for their expansion in the MetaFi vision.
