Binance Coin is closing on a valuation of $500 after climbing 5% in the last 24 hours.
The crypto created by popular exchange Binance – which supports more than 1.4 million transactions per second – aims to become the infrastructure services provider for the entire blockchain ecosystem.
Its BNB token had reached $494 at the time of writing (7am UK) and is 21% higher than last Tuesday.
However it is still some way short of its all-time high of $690, set in May.
A slight increase for Bitcoin (BTC) saw it approach $62,500, less than $2k below its record valuation.
The cryptocurrency market leader is up 9% in a week.
Smart contract blockchain platform Ethereum, the world’s second most valuable crypto, dipped 1% to around $3,830. Also up 9% in a week, ETH’s all-time high – around $4,200 – is also within reach.
Meme coin Dogecoin (DOGE) leapt 5% to top 25 cents, which puts it 11% up over seven days.
Polkadot (DOT) dropped 3% to $41.32 yet remains 24% up over seven days thanks to a big leap last week.
