Asset manager VanEck has registered for a proposed BNB exchange-traded fund (ETF), the latest among the list of its new crypto ETF filings. As a result, the trading volume for BNB Coin has shot up by 42% to more than $2.12 billion, as analysts are now closely watching for a BNB price rally to all-time highs.

In BNB Price Ready for A Mega Rally?

BNB Coin has performed relatively well over the past month compared to Bitcoin and other altcoins. While BTC and top altcoins like ETH, SOL, XRP saw double-digit losses in March, BNB Coin is down just 1% on the monthly chart. After a strong consolidation of around $610 levels, the BNB price could be eyeing a strong breakout to new all-time highs.

BNB Burn and Pascal Hardfork Offer Support

BNB Coin features a real-time burn mechanism that permanently removes a portion of gas fees from circulation. Over the past seven days, 951.85 BNB worth $571,747.74 was burned, contributing to a total burn value of nearly $160 million, as per data from BNBBurn.

BNB’s price recently gained momentum following the implementation of the Pascal hard fork, which enhanced its compatibility with Ethereum. The network is preparing for additional hard forks this month and in June, aimed at further improving transaction speeds.

Additionally, BNB Chain is gaining a lot of popularity among meme coins, adding support for Mubarak meme coin, CZ’s Dog BROCOLLI meme coin, and others.

Looking at the technical setup, the BNB price chart shows that the altcoin is forming a cup-and-handle pattern, along with an ascending channel pattern formation, as shown in the image below.

On the other hand, BNB price is trading above the 50-day moving average, which is a positive indicator. But for the altcoin to kickstart a rally to its all-time high of $790, it must first complete the handle formation at $662, and give a breakout above that level.

As of press time, BNB Coin is trading at $603 levels with its daily trading volume up by 42%, surging past $2.12 billion. Furthermore, the Coinglass data shows that the BNB options trading volume is also up by 46%.

VanEck Files for Spot BNB ETF

$115 billion asset manager VanEck filed for the spot BNB ETF in Delaware on Tuesday, April 1, which could serve as a major catalyst for the BNB Coin rally ahead. The proposed BNB ETF would follow the price of BNB, the fifth-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization.

Apart from BNB, VanEck has already submitted crypto ETF applications for Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, and Avalanche. VanEck filed for SEC approval last month to launch the first AVAX ETF, building on its success with spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs.
