BNB Standard ($BNC) rang the Nasdaq Opening Bell on Oct. 26 at 9:30 a.m. ET, live from Times Square, with the livestream from 9:15 a.m. ET. BNB Standard announcement

CEO @odagius rang the bell with @cz_binance, @ellazhang516, the YZi Labs team, plus the board and BNB Chain team celebrating with him. YZi Labs BNB Standard confirmed afterward: "BNB Standard rang the Nasdaq Opening Bell." BNB Standard

It was to celebrate new leadership and a new chapter, not a new listing. BNC already trades on Nasdaq after CEA Industries renamed to BNB Standard Corp on Sept. 29, 2026, keeping ticker BNC.

BNB Chain called it a milestone for the wider BNB ecosystem, putting BNB in the spotlight on a global financial stage. BNB Chain YZi Labs, its largest shareholder, framed it as taking BNB to Wall Street after Alex moved from YZi Labs to CEO of BNB Standard.

For BNB itself that means visibility rather than a direct protocol change. The company describes itself as the world's largest corporate BNB treasury. BNC perps were recently quoted around 6.05 USDT on Binance and Bybit.
