BNB, the native token of Binance, has seen unprecedented growth since its inception. The token is used mainly to take advantage of lower or discounted trading fees as well as for joining the Binance Launchpad.

The demand for BNB has been growing exponentially since 2020. And economics-wise or based on the law of supply vs. demand, the demand will always outnumber the supply.

With that being said, BNB might skyrocket and beat its ATH in 2021, especially with the onset of a raging bull market.
