Binance coin [BNB] seems to be emerging as the most promising coin. While the entire crypto-verse was riding the bull, BNB had surged by over 30% in the last 24-hours. Bitcoin had hit a high of $52K while its market cap was seen to reach $1 trillion.
Astonishingly, the Binance coin was seen taking over as the sixth largest coin as its market cap sprung up to a high of $26.32 billion. XRP was once again pushed further down the crypto ladder.
At the time of writing, BNB was trading for $170.74 as it was experiencing correction from its all-time high of $175.12 that it achieved about 10 hours ago. Binance coin [BNB] has time and again been touted as an Ethereum [ETH] killer. ETH was also seen close to hitting a high of $2K; at press time, the altcoin was $1,905.
Changpeng Zhao, the CEO of Binance, even tweeted an increase in the Binance Smart Chain compared to ETH. He tweeted,
There are almost 2x more transactions on #BSC than on ETH.
If you want more users for your Dapp, you need to be on #BSC now. pic.twitter.com/ZYnbFOVysc

While some suggested that both these networks could co-exist, a few others were adamant about Binance being an Ethereum killer.
