In the ever-changing cryptocurrency market, there is a group of investors who adhere to an old principle: 'HODL' (Hold On for Dear Life). For BNB, the platform token of the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange Binance, being a 'BNB Hodler' is not just a holding behavior but a deep investment strategy in the Binance ecosystem, where they see BNB as a 'golden shovel' that can continuously mine new assets.#BNB突破1000
What is a BNB Hodler?
The term 'Hodler' originated from a meme in the crypto community, referring to investors who hold specific crypto assets for the long term, steadfastly unaffected by short-term market fluctuations.
BNB Hodler specifically refers to users who hold Binance Coin (BNB) for the long term. They value not the short-term price fluctuations of BNB, but the multiple, continuous value empowerment and exclusive benefits it brings as the core fuel of the Binance ecosystem. The value of BNB has long exceeded that of a simple exchange platform token; it has become a ticket, key, and core chip to the entire Binance Web3 world.
The four core benefits and returns of BNB Hodler
Long-term holding of BNB and locking or subscribing it into Binance's financial products can yield continuous returns in four main areas, greatly enhancing the asset utilization efficiency of BNB.
1. HODLer Airdrop: Loyalty retrospective rewards
This is the latest and most unique reward mechanism designed by Binance for long-term loyal users.
Mechanism features: Binance will randomly take historical snapshots of users' BNB holdings in the 'Earning Products' (Simple Earn, such as flexible or fixed), and based on the snapshot data, airdrop high liquidity new tokens that are about to be listed on Binance to eligible users.
Advantages: The rewards are based on past loyalty, effectively preventing speculative behavior before the airdrop, ensuring that rewards are distributed to real long-term holders, and users do not need to take additional actions; tokens will be automatically credited to the spot wallet.
2. Launchpool & Megadrop participation eligibility
BNB is the cornerstone of Binance's new token issuance platform.
Launchpool (New Token Mining): Staking BNB in Launchpool allows users to mine the latest high-quality tokens for free. This is the 'golden shovel' feature most recognized by BNB Hodlers.
Megadrop: This is Binance's latest token issuance platform, combining BNB lock-up (earning points) and Web3 tasks (obtaining task multipliers), allowing BNB holders to participate in projects in a deeper way and receive airdrops before new projects are launched.
3. Trading fee discounts and VIP level upgrades
As the original use of the exchange platform token, BNB still plays an important role in trading.
Fee reductions: Using BNB to pay for spot and leveraged trading fees on the Binance exchange can enjoy discounts of up to 25%, with a 10% discount in futures trading.
VIP upgrade: The amount of BNB held is one of the important indicators for determining a user's VIP level. A higher VIP level means lower fee rates and higher withdrawal limits, among other exclusive benefits.
4. BNB Chain ecosystem fuel (Gas Fee)
BNB is the native token of the BNB Chain (including BNB Smart Chain, BSC).
On-chain applications: Users must use BNB to pay for gas fees when trading, minting NFTs, using DeFi applications, or engaging in any blockchain interactions on the BNB Chain, which gives BNB a broad on-chain rigid demand.
Conclusion: The essence of the BNB Hodler strategy
The essence of the investment strategy for BNB Hodler is **'One Coin, Multiple Earnings'**, using one BNB simultaneously for multiple avenues of earning income.
Maximizing the compound benefits of assets:
\text{BNB Comprehensive Returns} = \text{BNB Price Appreciation} + \text{HODLer Airdrop} + \text{Launchpool/Megadrop Earnings} + \text{Fee Discounts}
For long-term investors who are optimistic about Binance as a leading global exchange and its ecosystem (BNB Chain), holding BNB for the long term and participating in its earning products is undoubtedly one of the most effective ways to engage in Web3 innovative projects and enjoy ecological dividends.
