*What if BNB didn’t just sit in your wallet, but worked like a modern treasury that grows what you hold, pays you yield, and gets scarcer over time?* In this presentation by Ella Zhang, Head of YZi Labs during the 2025 Binance Blockchain Week Main Stage, she lays out “Powering the Next Wave of Digital Asset Technology”, explaining how a BNB “treasury flywheel” involving Binance Digital Asset Treasuries (or BNB DATs) can make BNB more valuable over time by combining steady yield, smart financial tools, and BNB’s built‑in burn (scarcity) — all on top of real utility across CeFi and DeFi. *In this presentation, you’ll learn:* ✅ The BNB DAT flywheel: NAV‑driven growth, 15–20% passive yields, and burn‑driven scarcity ✅ BNB's cycle‑tested performance: how BNB outperformed across multiple drawdowns to reach #4 by market cap in 2025 ✅ BNB's CeFi + DeFi utility: trading discounts, Alpha/Booster/Mega Airdrops; gas, staking, lending, payments across hundreds of dApps ✅ BNB distribution advantage: a 450M‑user Binance/BNB ecosystem as natural rails for issuance, discovery, and participation ✅ Institutions on BNB: why ~0.5% current adoption is tomorrow’s opportunity; new tokenization and banking signals on BNB Chain ✅ BNB Burn mechanics: 64M BNB cumulatively burned — a consistent, deflationary supply schedule ✅ Vision: BNB Chain as the future decentralized financial system — and BNB DAT as the on‑ramp for institutional participation *⏱️ Timestamps:* ⏳ 00:00 – Introduction: Powering the Next Wave of Digital Asset Technology ⏳ 02:34 – Explaining the BNB DAT Flywheel ⏳ 03:37 – BNB price performance through cycles ⏳ 04:44 – BNB's utility stack: CeFi programs + DeFi initiatives ⏳ 05:42 – BNB Yields: Holding Yields Benefit ⏳ 06:10 – BNB NAV via BNB Chain Utility, Stablecoin Statistics ⏳ 07:17 – BNB Ecosystem scale: perfect for asset issuance/discovery rails ⏳ 08:05 – BNB's Institution adoption is currently LOW compared to relevant coins, but rising! ⏳ 09:22 – BNB Burn/Deflationary Mechanism Update ⏳ 09:54 – Closing and Outro: The Big Picture of BNB and BNB Chain #binanceblockchainweek #bnbchain #bnb #binance #crypto2026 #bbw2025 *⚠️ RISK WARNING:* Digital asset prices can be volatile.
