Former Coral Capital Execs Aim to Raise $100M for BNB Investment, Eye Nasdaq Listing
  • A group of former executives from Coral Capital Holdings, led by Patrick Horsman, Joshua Kruger, and Johnathan Pasch, is seeking to raise $100 million to invest in Binance's BNB token through a new entity named Build & Build Corporation.

  • The fundraising effort is expected to be completed by the end of June 2025, with plans for Build & Build Corporation to pursue a Nasdaq listing.

  • If successful, this initiative would mark the first instance of a public company adopting BNB as a reserve currency, providing stock investors with indirect exposure to the token.

  • This strategy mirrors that of MicroStrategy, which has successfully accumulated Bitcoin as a treasury asset, indicating a shift towards altcoins like BNB for institutional investments.

  • MicroStrategy's approach has allowed it to accumulate over 592,000 BTC, showcasing the potential for similar strategies in the crypto market.

  • Currently, BNB is the fifth-largest cryptocurrency with a market capitalization of $87.8 billion, serving as a utility token within the Binance ecosystem.

  • As of now, BNB is priced around $622, having fluctuated since peaking at $794 in December 2024, with identified support levels at $550 and resistance at $700.

  • Analysts from Standard Chartered predict that BNB's price could more than double within the year due to increased network activity.

  • Binance founder Changpeng Zhao has acknowledged this development, referring to it as a 'BNB microstrategy' and expressing support for these initiatives.

  • This move reflects a broader trend among publicly traded companies adopting cryptocurrency treasury strategies, with firms like Metaplanet and 21 Capital making substantial Bitcoin acquisitions.

  • Growing institutional interest, coupled with Binance's recovery in a favorable regulatory environment, could drive BNB's price higher despite existing market challenges.

  • 21 Capital, another Bitcoin acquisition vehicle, has emerged with backing from notable investors such as Cantor Fitzgerald, SoftBank, Tether, and Bitfinex.
